I had sloppy joes.

I bought roasted chicken from the grocery store yesterday and made mashed potatoes and green beans.
Tonight will be leftover chicken and potato and sugar snap peas.

They look good to me. Anything with oats and lemon has to be good!

I made pork tacos, rice and broccoli.

And if he didn't eat that cake, you'd be complaining, right? What's wrong with my cake............. (I hope that through as humorous, which is what was intended)

I'm going to make a burger to go with the buns I just made.

I haven't been doing too much baking in this hot weather. Today is cooler and I needed bread. I was debating between a braided loaf and burger buns, the burger buns won.

I had a hamburger, roasted potato and sugar snap peas.

We got about 5 inches Saturday night and more than an inch yesterday. Lost electric service for close to 3 hours too.

I'm not surprised, BA! One way to tell if your produce is ready to pick is to see if the animals are starting to show interest in it. Their noses knows!

I had an open package of mozzarella and a little pasta sauce that I wanted to use up, so I made a pizza and a simple salad with it.

Saturday I made tacos. I seared a couple of boneless pork tenderloin chops, then simmered them in enchilada sauce until they were done, pulled them apart and returned them to the sauce. They came out pretty good.

I had spaghetti again with a side of sugar snap peas.

For dessert, I had a peach with a touch of ice cream.

I made spaghetti with meat sauce, sugar snap peas and carrots.

Joan, your fajitas look great!

Love me a good pasta salad, BA, and yours looks picture perfect!

It's almost Friday, where did the week go?

[RiversideLen]

That's terrible, BA. Very disappointing.

Congrats on your wedding anniversary, BA!

I've been thinking about lasagna but didn't want to make a large batch so I started thinking about what kind of pans I have. Finally decided on a 3x5 loaf pan. I went on youtube and saw all kinds of videos for using a loaf pan; I really just wanted to get some idea on how long it needs to bake.

So yesterday I made it. I started by making a sauce from some Roma's and cherry tomatoes. I used the no bake lasagna noodles, Ricotta cheese and parm, topped with mozzarella. I made it with 5 layers of noodles with a minimal amount of filling between each layer. Covered it with foil and baked it in the toaster oven. It's a simple lasagna but it came out good.

The youtube videos led to believe it would need about 30 minutes in the oven covered and then about 15 minutes uncovered. Mine took about 20 minutes longer than that. Since I was using no boil noodles, I made sure to use plenty of sauce and it's a good thing I did since most of it got absorbed.
