      I signed up for Home Chef meals to try it out and to shake things up in the kitchen. So far the turkey burger with guacamole and roasted sweet potatoes was very good as was the sweet chili pork lettuce wrap. I will make these again. I think you can see the recipes without being a member. I used groupon .

        Well I found TJ’s pizza crust this year in Florida. But alas couldn’t find Dom Pepino’s pizza sauce?. So I ordered 12 cans online! It is supposed to be here today and I’m ready for it but it hasn’t arrived yet so we may have breakfast for dinner. I can’t use 12 cans so i’m Planning on giving several away to people in the building.

            I made spicy orange shrimp as an appetizer to bring to friends' house. The recipe is on facebook by Kevin something. I omitted the cilantro as it is an acquired taste which I have acquired but I didn't know about any one else.

              Not scratch baking but...i had a pkg, of brownie mix and used light olive oil for oil( didn't have anything else) and spread the warm brownies with a squeeze pkg. of Duncan Hines frosting and topped with crushed chocolate peppermint pretzel crisps. Surprise,surprise they were good. The frosting was a freebee from my supermarket. It took all my strength to squeeze the frosting. I don't think it's going to be a winner.

                I sautéed some onions and peppers and chicken tenders with TJ’s simmer sauce. Yo make it my own I sprinkled several of the spices I bagged before leaving home ( in Fl. for 3 mos.) and it turned out HOt Hot HOT. I guess without the labels you don’t know what your getting.

                  I have to empty the cupboard and freezer as we get ready to go south. I mixed up some tuna with finely chopped carrots and mayonnaise and put it on 4 large toasted bagel halves. I topped them with sharp provolone and broiled them. I served them with baked French fries (recipe from allrecipes). Pretty good if I do say so myself. BA,you are so good and I am so bad.

                    I bought what I thought was a pork tenderloin but it turned out to be a 2lb pork LOIN. I should have known better. I have never seen a 2 lb tenderloin. Anyway I baked the loin (cut it in half)and it was not tender. How do those marinated in a bag loins turn out so well?

                      I made a variation of BA's chicken rolled in panko etc recipe. I had some cornmeal crackers which I crushed and used instead of panko and mixed the panko with Mexican grated cheeses instead of the Parmesan. I used the light mayonnaise. Hubby liked and I did too.

                        “Fathers please forgive me”. When my cut brownies turned out to be undercooked I stuck them in the microwave for about 2 minutes or so and they turned out ok.

                          We had filet mignon, mashed potatoes and green beans for dinner on Thursday. Then we had the leftover steak with omelets and hash browns on Friday. Great time of year to pick up beef tenderloin on sale.

                            I finally found an outlet for my baked goods. The local legion has the football package on Sundays and being Patriot fans living in a non-Patriot area we all in. They also have a potluck where everyone brings things. So I made Dorie Greenspan's banana bundt cake in the Christmas poinsettia pan. Since I am getting rid of stuff in anticipation of maybe moving I didn't have any food coloring to make the cake pop. So I decorated it with white icing and crushed dried cranberries in middle. Tasted good.

                              Back in the day my husband loved rice a roni with beef. So I found a recipe for homemade rice a roni and added sautéed ground beef to it. This recipe called for orzo instead of broken spaghetti and it included walnuts. It definitely needed more spice but my husband who never has seconds (helpings) went back for more!!!!! Go figure.

                                Always looking for recipes to use up my overripe bananas. This one looks good and uses a lot of bananas.

                                  I received a free sample of Greek Seasoning too and as with all those other Penzey's spices I have acquired I use it willy nilly in whatever I am cooking. As an aside Penzey's has a facebook page and several people submit recipes and ideas on what to do with the spices.
