Shredded chicken sandwiches for lunch. Dinner, probably stir fry (shocking, I know!) I should have left overs all week for quick lunches, which will be nice.
Pork and sauerkraut with dumplings AND mashed potatoes. Tis what tis!
No dessert....neither Rick nor I are up for it. He just finished the cheesecake and the frozen peanut butter pie from Tuesday.

Whoa, you'll be having breakfast 'til the cows, or should I say chickens, come home!
Right now I'm thinking stir fry with falafel but by tonight that could change. I need another cup of coffee to think straight.

I got busy at work and caved, and had some leftovers!
Tuna loaf is on our menu tonight. Not sure what I'm having with it, other than red beets for me. Rick won't touch them, so maybe some peas for him.

Last night I made my mealime scallops, bacon, and brussels sprouts recipe. Tonight will likely be leftover Chipotle from J's party.
The plan to start cooking regularly in the new year hasn't taken effect yet, as I've been busy taking down Christmas decorations and doing mini housecleaning. So last night was just snacky stuff. Tonight was a bit better, as I had an open faced toasted sandwich with apple slices, walnut, raisins and cheese. I have been having chickpea salad with cucumber, celery, onion and tomato for lunch the last two days, so I guess I haven't been eating too terribly. Tomorrow I plan to cook something for dinner.

I was in town for awhile this afternoon and went through a burger joint that is a locally owned place and pretty popular. I just had the usual, burger and fries (and one of their famous malts)! I got there about 3:30 so there was very little wait time, plus they cook your food to order.
There's another burger place that's very similar on the other side of town, but the last few times I've gone I was less than impressed (a hamburger should not smell like B.O.
). Plus, the workers are SO unfriendly.

DH stopped at the deli and bought Lorraine Swiss cheese so I made grilled cheese sandwiches with vegetable soup. Honeycrisp apples for dessert.
crock pot chicken soup with garlic bread
Lamb casserole tonight, hope it’s as nice as they usually are!
After all the crap lately--I had a furnace fail and then my sewer line got backed up ... I got lazy and had dinner delivered. McAlister's Deli. I absolutely love their potato soup, and they make a pretty decent Reuben sandwich. And no dishes to add to my backlog (now that I can use my dishwasher again--I had run in Friday night and water backed up into the sink and did not go down until I got a plumber here today).

Tonight was a pork medallion sandwich for lunch. Dinner will be the last couple of medallions, and the last of the blackeyed peas and turnip greens.
OH...I found something called "Bacon Jam." It was delivered tonight. Tomorrow, or maybe the next day, I'll make biscuits, and give it a somewhat caution try. I'll let you guys know how it goes. Yes, it is made with real bacon. No, I had never heard of it before.

Here's how I once made bacon jamSaute small cubes of bacon in a heavy pot over moderate heat. Important - must be good bacon, thick cut. When bacon is shrinking and there's liquid fat, add lots of chopped onion, some mustard seed and brown sugar and a glug of balsamic vinegar. Partly cover the pot, turn the heat to very low and simmer for a very long time, stirring occasionally, until the onions and bacon are very dark and have a jam-like texture. When cool pack in glass jars with good lid and refrigerate. Lasts for a long time.
It was pleasant, Himself didn't care for it, and it was too much trouble to make again.
