What's for dinner ( or lunch )

For lunch I saw the Wendy's sign for 99 cent Frostys, U turn to the drive thru, so that and a couple of potato chips was lunch.... now that's what I call a bargain lunch.

Got a roast chicken with veggies for dinner tonight, and a Pork Tenderloin and scalloped potatoes in there too for tomorrow.

Now I am curious, what is Crack Slaw?

It's a sort of low carb take on fried rice or stirfry.

I make it with a half-pound of spicy breakfast sausage, onion, bell pepper, garlic, celery, carrots, and a 14-ounce bag of shredded cabbage seasoned with salt, pepper, poultry seasoning and a packet of chicken or beef flavored GOYA bouillon powder.

When the meat and vegetables are cooked I add a sauce/slurry made with 2 teaspoons of corn starch, 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame oil, and a heaping teaspoon of hot garlic chili paste. Stir and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens and the coating takes on a shine.

Sometimes I swap out the sausage for other ground meats and sometimes I swap out the cabbage for riced cauliflower or drained and rinsed sauerkraut. Adding a few sliced mushrooms won't hurt Use what you have on hand.

It's different every time I make it but it's always good.

If you do a little googling you will see many variations.

Thank You!
 
I haven't felt good all day today. Tired, weak, a headache & had a little temp - 99.8 which went back to normal after a few hours.
I did have to sit in CVS around several sick people for an hour. One-Day Corona?
The only time I don't want to eat is when I have any fever; even a slight one. So, I only ate half an apple & a handful of Hazelnuts which I shared with the baby Opossum that visits every night.
 
I have a Opossum who visits every night. I've been putting out some cat food for her over the winter. They are good to have around your property as they eat ticks and mice.
As far as food goes, I eat yogurt for breakfast and before I go to bed. In between is a mixed bag. Some take-out, Kind Bars, prepared frozen dinners (Stoffers & Boston Market). I cook now and then, but it seems to be more then than now.:sneaky:
 
There must be something missing in my diet because lately I have been craving sardines.
So I have been making sardine sandwiches on a crusty Kaiser bun. I add chopped up onions and a bit of oil and vinegar to make a paste. I suppose they are rich in calcium. I have them for lunch.
In Canada we get the Brunswick sardines. A nice change from cold cuts.
