Still had a hankering for Beef and Broccoli so I made it tonight, using Peep's recipe as a guide https://netcookingtalk.com/forums/threads/peeps-beef-and-broccoli-stir-fry.17417/

MUCH better! I used a couple of cube steaks I had in the freezer.

Wish the photo was better.

Pan fried cod loins with leftover cauliflower potato salad

 

[Johnny West]

This curry was so good and not gamey at all. Matt’s spice combo was better than any Indian place We’ve eaten.

I have another variety of the Taylor Farms chopped salad kit. It's kale and a lot of other vegs mixed in, with poppy seed dressing.
I'll have some of that for lunch, then use some of it again for dinner, inside a large spinach and herb tortilla wrap, with sliced deli chicken and gouda slices.

I'm making kung pao chicken with Jasmine rice. Rice is in the rice cooker, chicken and veggies have been prepped...with chicken marinating in the fridge. It is a quick and easy meal and one we enjoy.

<--this doesn't apply to anything, I just thought it cute...

Spinach and herb tortilla wrap , stuffed with kale salad, thin sliced chicken and gouda.
This was delicious and filling.

I also love the chips!
That's a new line of products (bettergoods) introduced at Walmart recently. Everything I've had so far is excellent quality, including their cheese blends and almond milk.

Oh, they had to be better than the low carb spinach and herb tortillas I bought. Yuck!

The low carb ones I've had before were ok.
I couldn't find any in the low carb, so I settled for those.

So I usually don’t take pictures of my restaurant food. I just show the stuff I actually make. But o few days ago Lee asked if I took pics of a pizza, and I gave it some thought. I guess if it’s something special, it’s worth sharing. So tonight I took pictures of my birthday dinner.

We went to a brand new restaurant in town called Taverna Toscana. Started with a mushroom pizza with truffle cream and crispy rosemary. It could have been a meal for two of us. Outstanding! We each ate one piece, then asked to have it boxed up.

My entree was a fruit de mer on squid ink pasta. Very good. Of course, I picked out all the cherry tomatoes (I hate warm bursted cherry tomatoes), but the rest was excellent.

Judy had a short rib ragu over pasta. She loved it, but it’s something I make occasionally and I like mine better. She didn’t remember that I had ever made it before (the story of our lives lately).

We shared a tiramisu for dessert, along with her coffee and my caramel espresso martini.

Grilled some chubby lamb loin chops. Served with Greek salad, pita and homemade tzatgiki. Perfect!

We would have been fine with the pizza. But we had already ordered our meals, so……. Box up the pizza

 

[Sass Muffin]

That was a beautiful birthday dinner, Kathy 😊

Lee, I'm not wild about lamb, but I'd sure try yours! Lol

Stouffer's Life Cuisine Keto Veggie Pizza with more stuffed mushrooms 🤤

 

[Ginny]

I'm working on dinner. Dinner should be...chicken breasts, mashed taters, roasted brussels sprouts, cranberry apple chutney and rosemary gravy. It sounds complicated, but it really isn't. It reminds me of thanksgiving...and I would have this meal on Thanksgiving or any day!

 

[Johnny West]

Matt’s leftover beets and rice from last night and steaks and kielbasa I grilled….

 

[lilbopeep]

I had air-fryer fish sticks and tater tots.

I didn't know you had an air fryer.

It is super easy. I make a "double" recipe of it, and that's what I've posted below. If you have a skillet that you've just used to cook your chicken, so much the better, but not mandatory. Recipe calls for rosemary (duh!), but I can imagine using other fresh herbs of your choice...

Rosemary Chicken Gravy

2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary (or to taste)
1 cup water
1 tablespoon flour (I use Wondra)
2 packets chicken broth concentrate (I find it at QFC stores)
Salt & Pepper to taste

Combine water, flour & broth concentrate, set aside. Melt butter in small skillet or pan. Add rosemary and stir for a minute. Add water/flour/broth slurry. Cook & whisk for 3 to 5 minutes, until thickened. Add salt/pepper. Ta da.
