Mmmm, meatloaf! I've collected several recipes for meatloaf over the years. It's one of my favorite to make besides pot roasts. When we slow down this week, I think I'm going to make one.
I almost made meatloaf tonight, it's one of my favorites. Instead, I roasted a big chicken, with potatoes, carrots and onion, and alongside I baked a huge sweet potato, and steamed some asparagus. I'll eat this for a couple days, and package up some for freezer meals, too

While I am definitely sticking to ‘The Starch Solution’ I have decided to still eat a full turkey dinner at Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Today was our Easter dinner and it was good.

Tonight dinner was salad, baked white sweet potatoes, grilled asparagus & grilled sirloin steak. Picked up a raspberry filled croissant at Trader Joe's for dessert. I'm stuffed & vegetating on the recliner now.

Ate too much at lunch & took nap after everyone left. We had ham, au gratin potatoes, asparagus & 7-layer salad. Dessert was a carrot cake. Leftovers now for a day or so & will freeze the rest.

"going back to real food" LOL Is their a Burger King nearby ?My loaves taste like baking soda!UGH.
Also, I didn't tell ya, but I put too much yeast in the mix, (only 1/4 tsp) so as to empty the envelope. And yep, they rose over the pans and stuck.
I'm going back to real food.

Only 3 this year for a low-key casual Easter Lunch (then hit the beach and watched a game later).
Not everything is on the "table" yet and salad was our "appetizer".
Table is out for repair so we're using the kitchen island.
Crab cakes with béarnaise sauce
Large steamed Pink Argentine Shrimp with warm butter
Steamed mussels in a sauce
Sweet corn on the cob.
Fresh Asparagus
Dessert: Lady Fingers and Kiwi Trifle with whipped cream
and sprinkled granola on top haha, my own concoction

Thinking about pulling together a big pot of French vegetable soup today or tomorrow. It's so nice to have homemade soup in the fridge and freezer.
I love many of Progresso's soups, but their sodium levels are ridiculously high. My hack is to add a couple of cups of water, spices, sometimes a few Tbsp of homemade tomato sauce, plus a lot of vegetables and maybe some beans.
Then I lunch on half one day and half the next to spread out the sodium.

It tastes far better than it looks.

Looks very yummy, @PeppermintPatty. Did you make it exactly to the recipe? (I'd probably add a lot more celery & carrots, but that's how I roll.)
