      I marinated a pork tenderloin in pickle juice then spread mustard on it and topped it with Swiss cheese and ham. Then I baked it at 350 for 25 min. It was a winner. A Cuban pork roast!

            I made saltimboca with Purdue thin sliced chicken breasts. Total failure. Never know how long to cook those thin breasts. Should have used my thermometer.

              Well if you call reducing TJ’s soup and serving it with tuna melts “ cooking “ then this is what
              I am cooking.

                Last night I made peppered chicken thighs with spiced cashews, mango, cilantro and rum. It was a lot of work but worth it. It is a NYT’s recipe.

                      I tried a new recipe from our Giant supermarket recipe collection: Thai-Style Chicken and Cole Slaw with Pita Bread. It got an "A" from my husband. Of course with any new recipe it's always taste and adjust.

                        Until recently I was never asked if I exercised when I had my annual physical. The connection between health and exercise was never taken seriously. I do exercise faithfully and the only medication I take is Prolia for what was osteoporosis (now osteopenia). Unfortunately for exercise to work it has to be a part of your life like brushing your teeth. The best part of exercise is the good feeling you get when you are done.

                        A few years back the doctors starting testing for vitamin "d" deficiency. I was deficient and started taking the "d" supplement. Now I test fine. Should have purchased stock in Vitamin D.

                          I had purchased some “choice” strip steaks on sale. Because I had to buy 3 I knew after the first 2 that they were not a bargain. So I decided to slice the 3rd steak thin. I marinated it and sautéed it with onions and peppers. Not bad! Served it over garlic mashed potatoes with Parmesan cheese and sugar snap peas.

                            I like your method of cooking chicken. Maybe i’ll Try it.

                              Skeptic I can sympathize with your thriftiness . I bought a box of Ferrara (hard) ladyfingers on sale 3 years ago. I couldn't bear to throw them away. So today I spent $4 on marscapone to make tiramisu. I used the recipe on the box and I think it came out pretty good. I do not like cream cheese so don't even think about it as a substitution.

                                I bought baby back ribs on sale and baked them with rub in foil at 350 for 2 1/2 hrs and then sauced them and baked them a little longer. They were superb! I also discovered that they were not the usual "onsale" (Smithfield) brand. They were the "Swift" brand and they were not fatty but meaty. I've purchased so called "xtra meaty" ribs and nothing compares to these.

                                  Tonight is breakfast for dinner with cheesy omelet, bacon, homefries , orange slices and bagels with (in my case) lemon curd. Doesn't sound healthy does it? Well the orange slices will balance it out. Ha,ha.
