patti

Low carb tortilla, mayo, pastrami, Swiss, lettuce, arugula.

Meatloaf, mushrooms, broccoli.

That bread is gorgeous! Take-out garlic parmesan wings and roasted cauliflower.

Speaking of lazy combinations (to paraphrase)... Hamburger patty with Swiss, onions and mushrooms. Avocado.

Surf ‘n Turf

Catfish with lemon and dill. Cherry tomatoes cooked with the catfish and spooned over avocado.

I’m hobbling around with some knee trouble and cooking is not easy right now. Ordered food delivery tonight. Chicken shawarma salad. Hummus Last night I used some taco meat found in the depths of the fridge and made some questionable nachos. All survived. The chips used are Quest, low carb.

Shrimp salad with avocado and dill. Parmesan crisps.

Round steak, mashed cauliflower.

Not pretty, but sometimes life is like that. Garlic butter oyster mushrooms to go with cabbage and Italian sausage.

@pastameshuganaThank you! I’d considered crumbling Gorgonzola over my serving of pork and topping it with the sauce, but at the last minute, I added to the potatoes, instead. I will be making Gorgonzola mashed potatoes again! @TdeV Thanks! Here you go. I seared my seasoned (kosher salt, cracked black pepper, dried thyme) pork tenderloin on the stove top, then wrapped it in foil (after topping with a few pats of butter) and baked for 25 min at 350. Made the sauce while it was baking. Balsamic Fig Sauce 1 Tbsp butter 1 shallot finely diced (or red onion) 1/3 C water 1/3 C balsamic vinegar 1/4 C chopped dried figs 1/2 tsp dried thyme The recipe didn’t call for pomegranate molasses or cayenne, but after making and tasting the sauce, I thought it needed something. I added sweet and heat. Just a few squirts of the pomegranate syrup. Also, I used a very small tenderloin. I would double the sauce if you have a 2 pound one. Last night’s dinner was a brisket salad. Dinner on Monday night was scrambled eggs with brisket, spinach, mushrooms and goat cheese. I am not successful with omelets when I greedily add too much “stuff.” It was actually delicious, though.

I'm very sorry to see this. Only a few days ago I was rereading a gumbo cook-off thread in the Louisiana forum, from back in the day when I posted here a lot. He really was a memorable character. RIP.

Wow! Those shrimp look good. Popeyes is my fave, too. My husband doesn’t love fried chicken, so we don’t have it often.

Happy days are here again! Pork tenderloin with balsamic fig sauce. Over Gorgonzola mashed potatoes.

Popeyes fried chicken, peas, and potatoes.

Things are looking up, thanks! Beef and veg stir fry.

Had plans for a relatively healthy stir fry. Changed to stress eating carbs, with a side of high anxiety.

@Kim Shook- shredded mozz, and a garlic, Parm, parsley, olive oil sauce. ETA: What is that dessert? Looks delish! Tonight, pork noodle soup leftover from last night.

@Shelby Thanks! I love shrimp and am lucky enough to be able to get some easily. @mgaretzThat chicken looks gorgeous!

When I cooked the shrimp for last night’s salad, I cooked enough for another meal, which ended up being shrimp flatbreads.

Happy Anniversary! Looks like a great meal!

Shrimp salad.

Thank you! The plate was a gift. World Market!

Last night, naan flatbread, with Genoa salami. Tonight, pork chops and sweet potatoes. This pork chop is huge. After the photo, my husband and split it.
