What Are We Eating For 2016

We had homemade chili from the freezer and green salad with avocado and tomato.
 

I was looking at a cookbook today from the 70's that had the favorite recipes of the "ladies of the church". As you can imagine, the following ingredients kept showing up: cocktail wieners, Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup, Velveeta cheese, large tub of Kool Whip, maraschino cherries, cream cheese, pineapple tidbits, French's Onion Soup mix, and the like. After I snickered a little, my mouth started watering and I had to go make a tuna casserole and an ice-box pie. Ummmm-ummmmm. Damn the carbohydrates....clogged arteries ahead! I'll diet tomorrow.

Is there a such thing as too much garlic? I've never experienced it... oh wait... I take that back.. one times I put some whole bulbs in the oven drizzled with olive oil and baked until tender... I ate WAAAAAAAAY too much... the tummy didn't handle it that well.

We got to a restaurant that would change your mind, in fact many Thai restaurants put whole unsliced cloves of garlic in their dishes!
 
Supper tonight (Thursday) was some small rib steaks on the BBQ..

Steamed and smashed carrots and parsnips
Coleslaw

Frozen, thawed fruit with heavy cream..

Breakfast: 3 egg omelette with 2 slices of Turkey bacon for my wife
3 scrambled eggs with some grated cheese for me..
 
Nothing exciting today. Trying to have some light eating days.

Lunch: potato, shrimp, pineapple salad
Dinner: glass noodle soup with pork
 
Yesterday (Friday) was food shopping day which means we got home at suppertime with nothing out for supper.. I took out of the freezer 2 B/S chicken breasts that I had dry marinated before freezing and put them on the BBQ frozen...

I had some broccoli that I steamed and we ended up having a rather decent meal and FAST !!!!!
 
Dinner out..I had grilled lemon garlic shrimp, baked potato with sour cream, Brussel sprouts. Dessert at home will be some juicy oranges. These are from a neighbor's tree and just delicious.
 
Over 30 cms of snow, Flash freezing, and winds of up to 100 kms is the forecast for today and tomorrow..
I guess I will be cooking indoors for sure.. Another type of casserole or maybe a meatloaf made with minced turkey or minced chicken..

I have NO shortage of veggies including a salad, but I will decide at the last moment what to make..


PS..... I forgot to mention yesterday with the Tuna casserole that I have some leftovers ....... ECH !!!
 
Spicy Chicken noodle soup (homemade from freezer reheated in mighty microwave..lol) lettuce, tomato, avocado salad, fresh oranges for dessert.
 
I HAVE SOME MEATLOAF LEFTOVER AS WELL !!!!!!!
Guess it will go into the fridge till it goes off and then into the garbage..
We are NOT the best leftover eaters..

For tonight (Monday) it is a bit nippy and windy, so I will be cooking inside again..
As I post this, it is -33c with a nice wind.....

I have some frozen chicken breasts that are marinated before freezing that I will put in my George Foreman griller..

A salad or better still, a turnip casserole to go with it..

Breakfast: 3 egg omelette with 2 slices of turkey bacon for my wife..
French toast for me served with brown sugar and cheese..
 
We had tuna sandwiches on whole wheat with bread and butter pickles and baby carrots on the side. Dessert was sliced bananas sautéed in a little butter and brown sugar...I love that treat!

I love dates, Yaya! I think I need to buy some..my fave is Medjool. I had a Date Shake in Indio,CA...which is not far from Palm Springs..but that shake is obscenely rich!
 
Last night I had Chicken Tenders wrapped in a tempura batter, and sweet chilli sauce...with carrot & swede mash....


This morning, I'm working from home instead of down the pitface, so I had a leisurely late breakfast of cocktail Blini's topped with Mild blue cheese..

...and I've just eaten 2 dark chocolate peppermint fingers ...dangers of working from home, you could eat all day long LOL:D
