What Are We Eating For 2014 ..

Dinner tonight is a thick homemade veggie/lentil/brown rice soup, salad, and a multigrain seeded bread I made in my bread machine.
 

As I now live near the sea..and the fish seems fresher..and my partner has started a new job..

I'm doing Coquilles St Jacques in their shells with a white sauce and Parmesan..(under the grill)..

Fresh mussels in a white wine and garlic sauce...

And...a french apple pie with cream..
 

I tried to do something a bit different for supper tonight (Saturday)..
Took one pound of minced turkey, a box of turkey stove top stuffing mix, one cup of water, sliced mushrooms, shredded carrots, diced onion and herbs & spices ..
Mixed everything together and made a meatloaf.....

It turned out very good..

a salad was the veggie...
 
We were boiling, and peeling sweet potatoes to make a puree to put in the freezer. WE made 7 pints, put 6 in the freezer and made sweet potato pie with the other. Haven't made a dent in the sweet potato crop.

Steve, that turkey loaf sounds pretty good! I want to try it. I'll be adding some sage, or extra stuffing seasoning

I had sweet potatoes tonight for dinner too. I coated them in Extra virgin olive oil, sea-salted them and sprinkled some rosemary over them...and roasted them for 40 minutes, 15 minutes before they were done I added some organic flat mushrooms...then served the lot with thick slices of honey roasted ham, and baked beans..

Had a fresh Portuguese rocha pear for afters..

Last night I chopped up 2 cold skinless chicken thighs, and chopped a fresh pear into the same bowl, added a vine ripened tomato and a couple of red grapes...and that's it, no dressing.......it was deeeelicious...:D
 
Tiring day today with the grandchildren, so an easy meal tonight. Baked chicken breasts, chips [fries] and coleslaw, followed by raspberry trifle.Didn't make any of it myself.:D
 
I just made a pot of chili to die for. yum, can't wait for the brown rice to get finished cooking so I can chow down. Brown rice takes forever, I'm going to get that 10-minute kind in the future when I've finished this bag. Hasn't been an issue in the past, I usually get the rice started first, but for some reason I got the chili going first for this meal. Regular rice cooks in about 20 minutes brown takes 45. :tapfoot::drool1::wiggle: Well, anyminute or or 10 more, I forgot to set timer. LOL
 
Mmmm, sounds good April, at least the chili can be put on hold with no problem. :cool: Hubby's in the kitchen right now making us some oven broiled skinless/boneless chicken breasts. He'll put them on whole wheat hamburger buns, with mayo, onions and tomatoes.

Since it's just me, I don't cook big meals often, so this chili will last me a good while and I don't have to cook for a few days unless I get bored with the chili. Being that I hate pulling out the pans, not likely to get bored before the weekend and leftovers are good for freezing.

Yum Sea, that sounds pretty tasty. If I could have cooked my chili on my george forman grill, I would have. Believe me I was eyeing it when it came time to brown the beef. LOL. I tend to use that grill for all my meats these days; grilled chicken cooked on it is delish. I might have to make a grilled chicken sandwich one night, but first I have to see if there's any more chicken breast in the freezer, then I have to go get some buns.
