That alone is not sufficient information to assess the danger you are in: was it more of a Mars bar or rather a piece of sashimi ?

 

The leftover was the last of my chicken cacciatore.  I found it in the anova.

I tried yesterday to throw out the last two hotdogs but I couldn't get to them.

Last night's dinner. Pork Chili Verde. Served over cheese filled tortillas.
Made the chili before leaving for work yesterday morning.
Matt cooked the black beans for me in the Breville PC.
So dinner didn't take long to put together after I got home from work. Just had to make the dough for the flour tortillas and let it rest for 30 minutes, and make the salsa and the guacamole.

 

 

 

That looks wonderful. This part brought me up short:

That right there would put dinner at our house back at least 2 hours! 😅

Almost vegan mushroom barley soup.  Next time, rice instead of barley; I barely like barley and should know better.

I apprehended the offending charcuterie and executed the happy dispatch.  I have my standards.

I was positive you did. I was equally positive that if I didn’t like those standards, you had others to offer.

or as is said, the great thing about standards is that there are so many of them.

Pasty, green salad.

Hmmm. If you mean a pasty, green, salad please pass the Gravol.  Ifq on the other hand you mean a pasty, accompanied by a green salad, pass the plate. 😂

@Smithy, I cooked the pork in the morning, so it just needed to be reheated.  We were eating in less than an hour after i got home.  And that

was because the tortilla dough needs to rest for 20 to 30 minutes.

Last night's dinner.
 
Grilled a NY Strip steak big enough for two to share.

With roasted potato wedges and steamed green beans.
Simple, quick work night dinner.

This doesn't look like much, but it was good--stuffed portobello mushrooms.  Spinach/Italian sausage/tons of cheese.

Pork pot pie to use up the rest of the pork and veggies from the other day.

The mid-size grocery store has an excellent sale going on this week.  Ronnie bought a 10 lb. bag of uncut NY strip, a 6 lb. ham and a turkey (turkey was 59 cents a pound if you spent an additional $25) for just over $100 (and that included a few other groceries).  So we spent some time yesterday cutting and packaging meats.  Had to have ham and Swiss on rye last night.

The pastry on that pot pie looks good. I like that you can see the little steam bubbles where they're under the surface.

 

I love the compliment but I cannot lie lol.  It's Pillsbury refrigerated crust 😬

Provenance is highly overrated except perhaps, for truffles, caviar and Rioja. Perhaps if you moved in next-door to me, you could point to the other name on the package “crûtes à tarte”.

For years, decades actually, I made and was complimented on my piecrust.    Then, one day, I tried a PRC.    And never went back.   I do make suet crusts for pot pies and pasties, but other than that it's Pillsbury all the way.   I even shamelessly buy them on sale and store (hoard) them in the freezer.
