Just had some crawfish, brought them back from Louisiana on my last trip.

I really like crawfish, but the local ones here are far and few between.

 

[Irwin]

Salad and leftover Jet's Pizza.

Nasty, raw day here, so vegetable beef soup with barley for lunch and veggie stir fry with feta cheese for supper.

Hubs and son have discovered they love sweet potatoes, so after many baked in the microwave, I mashed them and they loved that, then I tried just slicing and baking them (dried out a little too much that way) so tonight I'm going to make baked sweet potato fries for the first time.

It will be a bit labor intensive since I'm having saute'd shredded cabbage and onion, too, and that's a lot of slicing. We're trying to eat more veggies this year.

Also baked salmon but that's easy.

I just finished with lunch. I ate my favorite double chicken avocado salad from El Pollo Loco.

I had a cheeseburger for lunch with a glass of sugar-free chocolate almond milk to wash it down!

Dinner will be a bowl of bran flakes with almond milk.

almond milk.

My vegan son has got me into the non-dairy milks, too. Our favorite is the oat milk-- very good on cereal.

The sweet potato fries? Never again. The raw potatoes were so hard to cut, I had to use so much pressure one slip would have meant a missing finger. Then they started to burn before they were really done. I did find out that burnt sweet potato is so caramelized it tastes like candy.

Was it in the tortilla bowl?

I always get coupons for that place, but I haven't been in a while.

I made chicken marsala w/ Idahoan instant mashed potatoes.

Lunch: Half a peanut butter sandwich and a cookie for dessert.
Dinner: Beef Stroganoff with mashed potatoes and carrots.

I got lazy and the mashed potatoes turned into noodles!

 

[Pappy]

Last night, a small green salad and spaghetti and meatballs. Oh so good.

 

[Aunt Bea]

I made a pot of crack slaw to scoop and nuke for the next couple of days.

 

[Della]

Crack slaw? Hot slaw?

 

[Aunt Bea]

Crack slaw? Hot slaw?

A bag of coleslaw mix or a pound of cabbage sliced into thin ribbons, 1/4-1/2 pound hot turkey breakfast sausage crumbles, onion, garlic, and S&P to taste.,

For the sauce/slurry
3T Soy Sauce
1T Sherry
1T Toasted Sesame Oil
1t Huy Fong Chili Garlic Sauce
1t Corn Starch

I brown the sausage in a cast-iron skillet, turn the heat down to low, add the vegetables cover, and steam for approx 10 minutes or until the cabbage has wilted.

Add the sauce and stir/cook until the mixture is coated and the corn starch is cooked.

I make the same thing using a bag of frozen riced cauliflower in place of the cabbage.

I've also made it with a variety or combination of meats and vegetables.

Dirt...

Georgia White Dirt (https://www.whitedirt.com/) to be more precise. I heard about it on a food documentary, it is a real thing. Tried some for lunch today, can't say I was real impressed, but I suppose calories are low. I had planned to eat this whole chunk, but only got about 1/3 of it down. Not much taste.

 

[Ruthanne]

Quorn sandwich w Mayo, tomato and cheese. Tastes like chicken but it's soy.

 

[hollydolly]

Just had my dinner,.. medium rare rump steak and garlic chestnut mushrooms...

@Aunt Bea thanks a million for the recipe. I just recently started frying cabbage (and onion and yellow pepper) in olive oil and soy sauce and they love it -- your recipe will take it one fabulous step beyond.
