What are we eating for ..... 2015

Actually Shirley, I don't eat turkey bacon very often..
The few times I ate it, it tastes like bacon as far as I know because I have NEVER had pork bacon in my life..
It doesn't have any fat that sits in the fry pan..
The red and white sections are dark and white meat from the turkey..
It looks and cooks just like pork bacon.. Crispy if you like it that way......



We have also tried chicken bacon but my Princess doesn't like it at all..

Personally with my eggs in the morning, if I have anything it will be some veal sausages....

That was a dumb question, Steve. I know you don't eat pork. I apologize. Maybe somebody who eats both can answer.
 

My latest foray was Bok Choy. Steamed it like cabbage, my wife thinks she may have over cooked it. It was limp and somewhat tasteless. Like it better chopped or shredded fresh in a green salad not too bitter. I really like steamed cabbage and will stick with that, but will add it to our greens.
 

Right now I'm eating a big green Granny Smith crunchy apple. :D I have a slight nicotine craving and heaven knows I don't want to cave after over a year of not smoking.
Last night friend brought Chinese take out, and there is quite a bit left over so I'll eat it and maybe make a salad.
 
Shirley...
Absolutely NO apology is necessary.....
It isn't a dumb question..
There is no such thing as a dumb question... Just dumb answers.....................

Turkey bacon is OK but chicken bacon is something else to be desired..

Tonight (Saturday) I made veal chops on the BBQ that I dry rubbed marinated first..

I tried out a new recipe for baked chicken tonight..
It called for thighs with the bone and skin on but I didn't have any so I used drumsticks instead..
It came out sooo good that my Princess wants me to make it again...

We had steamed broccoli with it...
 
I have NO idea what to make for supper tonight (Saturday)..

Last night I made rib steaks on the BBQ...
Steamed green and yellow beans with sour cream was the veggie..
Sliced tomatoes with fresh basil leaves and a drizzle of EVOO as another veggie..
 
Guests tonight and hubby is making a vegetarian lasagna with Quorn mince (vegetarian and like ground beef). I'm making a big salad and some French bread that I'll make into garlic bread. Have a basil plant in the windowsill and will have some on the lasagna.
 
I ended up making B/S chicken thighs in the skillet dry marinated first..
A salad..
