I'm glad your home Jimmy. Take care of that Diabetes.
DD made lunch a day late for taco Tuesday,
but Lunch was just fine. We had fresh Jalapeno's, and
tomato's from our garden.

That looks really good. Your daughter is a great cook and really good photographer too.

You made me go look at the peach availability in east tx. I love Pittsburgh, Tx peaches...close by and usually really good. They should be available in WalMart for my next order.

I enjoyed flounder fillet, green beans cooked with onions and tomato sauce.
Little baby potatoes baked with herbs and olive oil.
A chocolate dixie cup of ice cream for dessert.

Didn't realize diabetis had a effect on the body. Now I gotta watch the diet.

Med, you're making me crave shrimp & grits! I wonder how i would count the calories?

Lucky, those scallops are drool worthy.

Dan, I'm envious of your garden (in more ways than one!) It all looks so fresh and delicious.

Sass, I'm glad you finally got that steak, but I'm eyeballing the chicken thighs. Gotta save that recipe.

Lee, I wish I were as good on the grill as you are. You can make a whole meal on it. I'm lucky to do one dish at a time successfully.

Jimmy, only you could love hospital food! Hope you're feeling better. Watch those carbs!

Peeps, hang in there. It will get better. I miss seeing your food pics.

Thank you SS.

Best of luck, Jimmy! I well know how difficult it is to resist unhealthy temptations - been doing it almost all my life. Sucks.

Wishing you willpower!

Not sure what dinner will be tonight. I need to go food shopping. I have an eye round roast and a pork roast in freezer. BUT I wanted to wait to see if the A/C was really fixed before thawing a roast out. I had to throw away all the perishable produce I couldn't cook during the 3+ week heat wave. I found some new recipes I was excited to try so maybe Sunday will be the day to shop and try the new recipes.
 
This is based on a recipe from our one time member Deelady.
It's sliced brats in a grainy mustard, beer and bbq sauce.
Last few times I made it, I served it over rice.
Figured I'd try mash this time.
It's delicious.

Salmon Filet with a Teriyaki Drizzle, Crab Fries, Stinky Spinach, Seafood Salad carried in ... (Yuck! Should have made my Surimi Salad...)

We had rotisserie chicken, sour cream & chive mashed potatoes and mushrooms sautéed in butter with salt, pepper and Maggi Sauce.

Beef tenderloin chunks and mushrooms in a bordelaise sauce. Served with honeyed carrots and steamed Brussels sprouts. I left mine just lightly coated in the sauce so I didn't run up the calories!

Had a hankering for a fish taco and I found the BEST battered frozen haddock filets that I have ever had! Huge, crispy, delicious and on sale!! 270 calories per filet.

Served on a whole wheat tortilla with lettuce, light Ranch dressing, homemade pico de gaillo (sp?) with my garden vegs. And sliced garden tomato. And English cuke.

So good!

Lee
