BakerAunt, I keep a bookmark to the King Arthur Ingredient Weight Chart. It lists a lot of ingredients that I'm often curious about regarding weight and cups, etc. It lists the cups (sometimes ¼ or ½ cups but all you have to do is double) ounces and grams. I find it helps me with my visuals.
For example it lists ½ a cup of olive oil so if I need say 1/3, I'll double the grams then divide by 3. It works for me.

Burgers, oven fried sweet potatoes and salad both last night and tonight.

February 15, 2022 at 6:14 pm in reply to: What are you Cooking the Week of February 13, 2022? #33158last night we had leftover homemade pizza. Tonight I made a chef's salad with homemade thousand island dressing. the salads greens are a mix of leftover spinach, Bibb and cilantro that I'm adding a small head of romaine to. Mix ins are turkey, ham and Swiss from the deli, cucumbers, carrots, tomato and hearts of palm (those were on sale).
Yesterday, I made a slow cooker carrot & chickpea tagging. It was a little bland, but Will doctored up the leftovers so we will eat some and freeze some. Last night we had it with couscous and sautéed baby boy choi. Not sure what I'll have for my greens with it tonight.
Tomorrow Will will make pizza (he has a friend visiting for a couple of days) with his sourdough crust and homemade pizza sauce made with tomatoes frozen from the garden last summer. He likes to make several smaller ones with different toppings - a cheese, BBQ chicken and vegetarian.
Happy Birthday to your husband, Joan!
The ramen was really good, BA. I like to use the brown rice and millet ramen noodles from Lotus. You can order a big bag from Amazon. Itâs a better deal than Thrive Market. I always try to find other resources before I order from Amazon, but sometimes . . .
Will made roasted potatoes and broccoli with homemade quest sauce, only this time it was cheddar with a little bit of havarti and no peppers. It was really good and we have leftovers.
I made garlic butter ramen with fried eggs. The recipe has chopped spinach in it. It was good comfort food for a chilly night. Low 40s is cold here 🙂
The lettuce, arugula, kale and box choi have all sprouted. We are still waiting for the carrots and the nasturtiums.
Last night I made an Alfredo pasta with roasted broccoli. I sautéed chicken sausages to go with it for Will who wanted meat with dinner. All I wanted was the pasta. A nice warm dinner.
Depending on the vege, some you can keep year round, but for summer veges transplanting around end of February-mid March. We gave up the community garden plot at the end of last summer. We donât know if weâll be able to grow veges here because of the amount of sun, or lack thereof - great sun in spring, not so much in the summer - we have tall oaks and pines around us, so we have to find patches of sun.
Hereâs the photo of the sprouts

Attached, hopefully are a picture of our planter and the newly sprouted arugula on right and lettuce on left. We are trying to grow indoors rather than transplanting outside.

I took the eggplant Parmesan out of the freezer and itâs in the oven. Itâs our last batch from the garden last summer.
