At my brother and SIL's tonight we had fresh swordfish, broccoli and salad. Yum!
Yesterday I made a crustless quiche, had another piece tonight and two more for Monday and Tuesday. It's a great way to clean out the fridge before I leave on Wednesday!
I made tuna salad and had an open faced tuna melt on some of my whole grain bread with spinach and melted Gouda - Cabot makes a nice Gouda which is often on sale here along with their various cheddars and jack cheese. I had sliced tomato on the side.
Thanks, BA! Tonight I made chicken salad from the rest of the tender I had baked and then a side salad of the spinach and tomatoes - no tiramisu tonight, just a little bit of dark chocolate
Glad to hear your better! I'm going to Jacksonville with a friend tomorrow - I've been thinking about picking up some of the Sawyer spray for quite a while, like a year now π
BA, I'm sorry about your tick bite. I hope you are feeling better today. Since you do spend so much time in the woods, I thought you might find this article from NYT's Wirecutter newsletter helpful for future adventures. The link should work; let me know if it doesn't.
https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-bug-repellent/I made a loaf of whole grain banana bread using the roasted bananas from KABC. I had bananas that were halfway between ripe for eating and overripe. As I didn't have time to let them go to overripe, I decided to try the roasted ones. I really like the amped up banana flavor and the moistness they added. Tomorrow I will slice the rest and freeze it.
I had a simple spinach, tomato, baked chicken salad with shaved Parmesan. Then I had room for the tiramisu I brought home from work yesterday.
Since I'm off tomorrow, I made a nice dinner tonight and per usual, good for a few more nights. It's called Chicken Piccata Meatballs from Southern Living. I baked the meatballs instead of frying them. The sauce was light and had a nice flavor. The meatballs were very tender - I find sometimes chicken meatballs can be very dry. It was nice to make myself a new weeknight recipe that I enjoyed for a change. The last few were disappointing.
On Wednesday, I started craving fried chicken tenders, but was too lazy to go to any of the places that have really good ones. So I bought a bag of Perdue frozen breaded tenders and I've been cooking a couple each night in my toaster oven. I made a honey mustard sauce and have a box of mixed greens. It has been a simple, easy dinner especially after crazy busy days at work.
Tonight I made a sheet pan dinner with zucchini, red onion, yellow pepper, sweet potato and chicken sausage. I seasoned it with olive oil, S&P and Penzey's barbecue of the Americas which I think had been a sample - it worked cuz it had cinnamon and nutmeg into it.
Tonight I made tuna salad to have with mixed greens, tomatoes and vinaigrette along with a slice of harvest grains toast. Summer is here - it is hot!
Tonight I made a Caesar Kale Salad with some blackened salmon from work. I made croutons from the last two pieces of Will's sourdough in the freezer. I guess it's time to feed the starter π
I made skillet chicken fajitas from a recipe from the Washington Post. It's a keeper with a couple of minor tweaks.
Navlys, I agree with BakerAunt. I have some Penzey's spices I've had for quite a few years and I find that their spices last much better than the ones from the supermarket. The only time I toss them is if they have clumped together because of moisture. I buy the bags as well.
I made stuffed portobello mushrooms for dinner tonight and I have leftovers for a few days. They are stuffed with chopped mushrooms, shallots and spinach with melted cheese - very filling. I had quartered Campari tomatoes (on sales) with Penzey's lemon pepper for my "side."
