For dinner on Sunday, I made soup, using some frozen turkey/chicken broth, Bob's Red Mill mixture of lentils and split peas, carrots, celery, red bell pepper, garlic, ground turkey, yellow squash, and turnip greens. I seasoned with Penzey's Ozark Seasoning, some ground pepper, and a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to tame the greens.
I have a pasta salad recipe that I got from a friend years ago. I pulled it out this summer when Will had asked for some salad ideas. I had remembered that it made a LOT and was also time intensive. When I reread the recipe, I noted that all of the vegetables were sautéed in batches, hence the time.I decided the next time I made the recipe, I'd roast the vegetables.
So, today I wanted to make a farro salad and I thought I could adapt the pasta salad to the farro. I had to go shopping so I picked up some vegetables from the recipe. I roasted portobello mushrooms, red and green peppers, onion, asparagus and zucchini. I ended up not adding all the veggies to the farro (saved them for another time) but the salad was good and filling. I'll have it for a couple more days.
We had chili and cinnamon rolls, both from the freezer.
We had fried cubed pork,mashed potatoes and gravy and I made garden pea salad with a half can of garden peas that was leftover from this week.
On Sunday I cooked a salmon filet in a cast iron skillet on the BBQ grill, I added some applewood for smoke. It came out real good, I should have bought more salmon. Had the leftover for today's lunch.
Tonight I will be having a leftover pork chop from the freezer, a salad and maybe a little pasta.
I made tomato soup with celery, onion, and green pepper, and added some frozen mixed veggies from the grocery store. Some roasted garlic ramped up the flavor.

Macaroni and cheese here, but dessert was wonderful.
We had chili with croissants.
