Grits are made from hominy which is corn preserved by soaking in lye. I didn't grow up eating grits but had some when I made a trip to Alabama. I see lots of recipes for grits but I only eat them for breakfast mixed with my eggs.

LOL..when I was a kid watching the ''Beverly Hillbillies'' they were always cooking up a mess of grits..

I had no idea what they were, but imagined they were something to do with nasty animal bits..:eek:
 

Supper tonight was B/S chicken breast baked in the oven in a mayo/lemon sauce..
It tasted just like KFC chicken without the crisp..

Steamed and then roasted carrot wedges..
Sliced tomatoes....

Breakfast was an omelette with Turkey sausages
 
Supper Friday was a stir fry in the wok..
Onions, garlic, CARROTS (that I steamed first to soften), broccoli, zucchini, and red peppers..
Except for the garlic and broccoli, all came from my garden....
B/S chicken breast cubed and marinated in a honey-garlic sauce...

Breakfast:: scrambled eggs turkey bacon....
Lunch:: Nothing as usual....
 

Yesterday I had lunch out and had Mac & cheese with shredded belly pork mixed in it and a side serving of shredded duck and red cabbage...delicious. :D

This morning so far I've had a couple of juicy dried Algerian dates, a slice of Pumpkin and sunflower toast with orange marmalade, and for elevenses I had tea and a choc chip cookie!

Tonight will be fish pie
 
Yesterday evening, I ate out at a place called Sweet Tomatoes, mostly it's better suited for rabbits, but, of the lower priced eateries it's really the only one I really enjoy the food out in these parts. The salads are so very tasty.

Today, I'm making sausage with onions and peppers in a seasoned tomato sauce served over egg noodles.

I`ve never tried Sweet Tomatoes. We don`t have one close by but there is one in the town where our grandson lives and we frequently pick him up for visits. We`ll have to give it a try sometime.

You really should give it a try, but, do remember, it's not for people big on meaty meals. You will get bits of meat in some of the salads, but the main entries are veggies, and some pasta dishes, oh and frozen yogurt at the end of a delightful salad binge. I'm always quite satiated when I leave there even though I know I will experience great bloat due to all those raw greens. But I don't go often, just happy when I do visit once and a while.

PS, make sure you sign up for their membership to get the coupon, that's a real plus.
 
Steak.... smashed red potatoes and seafood stuffed mushrooms.... yum... First time making those.. hope they turn out.. I found some really nice big button schrooms at Costco yesterday.. so I thought I give it a try.
 
Today I ate out , and had a typically British Sunday lunch roast..

Roast Lamb,
White cabbage,
Broccoli
Carrots
Peas,
Roast pots,
Mashed pots,
Yorkshire pudding

No room for dessert at lunchtime, although I could have chosen from quite a few, instead I waited until suppertime and had a slice of chocolate torte..yummy:D
 
Today I fixed, German meatballs in a white cheese cream sauce, with red and green bell peppers, and gnocchies mixed into the sauce. This is one of Michael's favorite meals. I can't have any. Darn it. :awman:

For lunch: peanut butter and banana sandwich, half a peach and cookies n' cream ice cream.

The reason we don't eat lunch is because we don't get out of bed much before 11:00am if not later.. Often near noon....
By the time I get downstairs and make us a decent breakfast and our mug of coffee, it is much later..

Supper is generally around the 7::00pm mark if not a bit sooner..
That means there is only a few hours between breakfast and our supper.....

When I say we don't eat lunch, I do have a diet pop or a coffee but not a meal....
 
Some sort of oriental stirfry made with two left over pork chops that I've had frozen. Green onion and red pepper.. soy and seasonings.. thickened and over rice.
 
Chicken thighs B/S in the skillet in a honey-garlic sauce...
Steamed cauliflower, sliced tomato, coleslaw were the veggies...
Small bowl of frozen berries in yogurt sauce...
