Dinner tonight was grilled pork chops, and I roasted veggies in the Breville countertop oven. They were delicious with only a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt: sweet potato, onion, carrots, beets, and parsnips. And now I have leftovers to heat up for another meal this week!

I made Oven Crisp Fish and Chips agian, which we had with the rest of the Dill Tartar Sauce for dinner on Sunday. We also had microwaved fresh broccoli.

We had oatmeal tonight, with raisins.

I made the Skillet Chicken, Orzo and Spinach recipe that I found in the Washington post last year when I still subscribed. I added extra goat cheese and this was my best effort yet.

I had my last stuffed pepper, mashed potato and snap peas.

CWC design--I think that I also printed that recipe when I subscribed to the WP. One of these days, I will try it.

I made Spaghetti Squash Faux Lasagna for dinner on Monday. I played with the recipe by adding sauteed red bell pepper (from our garden), chopped celery, and some kale to the ground turkey. The tomato sauce, which I froze in September, came from our tomatoes. I now use 2 tsp. of Penzey's Bouquet Garni as the seasoning, as it works well with the sauce and squash and does not aggravate Scott's digestive system. We have enough for two more nights.

We repeated Monday's dinner on Tuesday. That gave me time to work on a sewing project.

I have been so busy with my family but had a wonderful time in Texas. I got home yesterday afternoon and chilled out. I had to go get some groceries so tonight I had rotisserie chicken, salad and cheese sticks.

[RiversideLen]

Glad you enjoyed yourself, Joan!

I made a pork tenderloin, snap peas with cauliflower and left over mashed potatoes.

Thanks for all the comments on my trip! I went today with my cousin to pay the property taxes grrr.So while we were in town we had Mexican!

[BakerAunt]

We still have some cherry tomatoes from our plants, and as Scott was able to protect them from the cold, we are likely to have some more. For dinner on Wednesday, I made shrimp in a sauce of red bell pepper, green onion, yellow and green zucchini, minced garlic, halved cherry tomatoes, and some freshly ground bell pepper, then tossed it with fettuccini. We have enough for an additional meal.

I also made yogurt on Wednesday.

[RiversideLen]

For dinner, I had leftover pork, pasta, green beans and cauliflower.

I bought an Instant Pot the other day and made red lentil soup in it this afternoon. It came out pretty good. I'm looking forward to making stocks in it.

I have Duchess soup simmering on the stove for dinner tonight and a road trip this weekend. We rarely eat in restaurants -- it's expensive and often not very healthy. We'll have an assortment of raw veggies with the soup. I didn't have time this week to make cookies as I usually do for our trips.

[Joan Simpson]

I had rotisserie chicken, sliced tomatoes and corn on the cob.

Len your soup looks great, I love lentil soup.

Chocomouse have a great trip and enjoy!I've never had Duthess soup.
