I had leftover schnitzel, ravioli (ricotta and spinach) and broccoli.

I made pork schnitzel yesterday and had a schnitzel sandwich for dinner. Tonight will be leftover, I think I might make pasta to go with it.

I made a stir fry with a left over pork chop, had it with brown rice.

I had a left over pork chop, baked sweet potato and cauliflower and carrots.

I made my usual sandwich buns.

I paid $10.99 a pound for fresh salmon filet at Whole Foods yesterday. I've never been disappointed with the quality of their salmon.

Tonight, I had a pork chop, potato and cauliflower.

For lunch I made an asparagus, red bell pepper omelet.
For dinner I roasted a salmon filet and had it with fettuccini and kale.

I took some turkey bones from the freezer and made a small batch of broth. My dinner was the same I've had for the last several days, beef sandwich and turkey veggie noodle soup,

Looks good, Mike, and I agree, it should be a larger diameter.

I'm making cinnamon rolls right now.  I had some fruitcake dried fruit mix that needed to be used so I took it (about 1/3 cup) and added raisins to make a cup, added a shot of rum to it, covered it and microwaved it on half power for a couple of minutes.  By the time I added it to the dough it had absorbed all the rum.  The rolls have been formed and are rising right now in the baking pan.  I haven't made these in a while and am looking forward to them.

ItalianCook, I'm pretty sure you could sub out the whole wheat for whatever flour you prefer.

Joan, I'm wishing you a speedy and complete recovery.

For me, a proper soup is simply a vehicle for lots of veggies and noodles.  🙂

I haven't been there in a long time but on the mezzanine level of Water Tower Place (Chicago) they had a food court.  When you entered you were given a card (like a credit card)  and there were about a dozen or so food stations, each one different.  For example, an Asian style stir fry station, pasta station, burger and fries etc etc.  You would place your order and they would fix the food for you and take your card and swipe it.  You paid at the cashier when you left the place.  There was a common seating area but a couple of them also had their own seating.  Anyway, one of the stations was soup, they would have 4 different soups everyday and they were all different from day to day.  You could get unlimited or just a bowl.  I used to love going there and getting the unlimited soup for lunch, usually have 2 and 1/2 bowls.  Those soups were great.

Yesterday I roasted a small eye of round and had a sandwich and soup.  Tonight I'm having the same thing except I'm using chicken broth from a box but the same veggie line up (kale, carrot and celery).

What is "leftover pie"? Do you have a recipe for that? I've never seen it. 🙂

[RiversideLen]

When I make pumpkin pie, I season it only with cinnamon and vanilla extract.  The flavor is perfect.  There is something in traditional pumpkin pie spice that does not go well with pumpkin.

Yesterday for dinner I made a small pizza with spinach and red bell pepper.  I took a container of turkey stock from the freezer and made soup to go with the pizza.  For the soup I included a little turkey meat (from the freezer), some celery, carrot and chopped kale. The soup came out great.

Unfortunately, it was a single serving.

Happy Birthday to your husband, Chocomouse!

Italiancook, my fav oatmeal cookie is also the Quaker Oats vanishing recipe. However, I found this recipe on the Martha Stewart site, https://www.marthastewart.com/315977/healthy-oatmeal-cookies which uses part whole wheat and oil, no butter.  I've made it a few times and it's decent is you are looking to cut down on butter.

On Sunday I made a batch of my usual semolina/rye/wheat rolls dough and let it do an overnight rise in the fridge.  Yesterday I baked 6 rolls and held out enough dough to make a pizza for dinner (2 rolls worth of dough).

I pulled out some turkey from the freezer, had it with gravy, tiny roasted potatoes and spinach.

Happy and safe 2022 to everybody!
