What Are We Eating For 2014 ..

Meatloaf made with ground chicken and a box of stove top stuffing mix as well as herbs and spices..

Butternut squash steamed, mashed with herbs and spices..
Frozen wild blueberries with heavy cream..
 
pork steaks with fried yellow peppers and mushroom rice, then fig yoghurt, then 2 crackers with a little bit of cranberry and Wensleydale cheese, and coffee.:)
 

Last night at our favourite place:
Veg fried rice with pineapple and bacon. Have had a craving for bacon for a week. Was yummy.
 
For supper tonight (Monday) I made NOTHING !!!!
We had a concert at our "Senior's Club" followed by a pot luck dinner, but they supplied the KFC chicken for everyone...There was soooo much food that we could of fed another 100 people.. We were about 125 members for the supper.. Some of those Seniors can really cook up some fabulous dishes..

Yes, we (my wife and I) sang in the choir..
 
In the U.S. heavy cream and whipping cream are the same. Half and half is light cream. They are the only two commonly available in stores. I saw a chart once that showed the percentages of milk fat in the U.S. and in England. I believe the equivalent of heavy cream in England was higher in milk fat than the U.S. You might search google and find such a chart.


My wife is going to cook a pork roast today. With potatoes, onions, and carrots.
 
I'm still not too sure about the 'cream thing' but thanks anyway.I expect I couldn't explain clotted cream.

Holly, you do 'live high on the hog' !
Tonight we will be having beef casserole with roasted potatoes and mashed turnips [it's cold and we need comfort food.]No dessert, but we have some stilton and apricot cheese we bought today with crackers to go with our coffee.
 
Hollydolly; you eat very well.....baked beans and poached eggs on toast here....

I have to admit I am very fussy about food, not that I don't have beans on toast occasionally, but I only eat small portions at any one time but what I do eat has to be good quality food that I enjoy:)

Tonight after a very long day at work I've just had Roast ham with shitaki mushrooms and white wine and cream Tagliatelle, for Dinner.
 
Made a stir fry in the wok for supper tonight (Tuesday)..
B/S chicken breast cubed and marinated in a honey-garlic sauce..
Broccoli, onions, mushrooms,sweet pepper, and garlic...

Breakfast:; The usual for my Princess which is 3 egg omelette with herbs and 2 slices of turkey bacon..
Bowl of porridge with cottage cheese and sour cream for me....
 
Tonight (Wednesday) I took chicken drums, dry marinated them, put them in a loaf pan and covered them with cream of mushroom soup that I added a chopped onion and herbs and spices...
Baked at 360f for about one hour and 30 minutes..
They were so tender that the meat just fell off the bone.. They were also very tasty..
The sauce we put over steamed veggies..
 
Tonight I made chicken burgers on the BBQ..
I know it was a bit nippy at -22c while I was outside, but I had on a jacket..

a fresh green salad..

Breakfast: 3 egg omelette with onions for my Princess and 2 slices of turkey bacon..
3 eggs scrambled with turkey sausage for me.....
 
Being good today. My sis in law will be here in a week and we are a bad influence on each other when it comes to food and cocktails.

Today I had muesli and banana and rye toast. Lunch was cantaloupe, apple and yogurt. Dinner will be some healthy Thai food, of course. No alcohol.
 
Supper tonight (Saturday) was chicken B/S thighs cooked in the skillet in a honey-garlic sauce..
Steamed and mashed carrots and parsnips with herbs and spices..
 
Last night we went back to an amazing restaurant where we ate and watched the sunset last week. We had the vegetarian dinner for two last time. It was flesh this time. Prawn soup in a coconut, duck, cashew chicken, sea bass, veg fried rice, steamed rice, all dishes included veg or herbs or chilis in various Thai sauces. Delish!!
 
This morning I had 1/2 a banana


Tonight I only had a thin slice of rare roast beef , with Plain basmati rice , plain steamed organic mushrooms with a tiny dash of soy sauce, and some sweet carrot and swede mash.. (no butter)
 
With all the talk of comfort food, since the day before, had baked up a large batch of chicken, I decided to make some chicken and dumplings. I'm enjoying a bowl right now. :D
 
Chicken B/S breasts on the BBQ for supper tonight (Sunday)..
They were actually extremely delicious.. I BBQ'd them while they were still partially frozen and put a dry rub on them first..

A fresh green salad ....
