I've got Applegate Farms chicken strips (healthier).
I'll have some of those, maybe a baked potato, and definitely a salad.

Pretty good.
First a mini-rant ... What in the world has happened to Banquet Frozen Entree's ??
They were my go-to bachelor dinners back in the stoned age.... had three this week.......
SAD ! But I have three more for the week of the next surgery, and they will have to get eaten , Sigh !
Oh, and I saw Eggs for $1.05 today at ALDI ...
Spaghetti & Pork Meat Balls ...

LT, I don't understand your rant. Are the Banquet meals not good any more? Too small?
Your dinner looks good to me!

Last night was stove top stuffing loaded with cut up chicken, country gravy, and home canned cranberry sauce.
I‘m grilling burgers tonight and not sure of sides.

I'm making boneless chicken breasts. Not sure what method.
Also a steamed veg and a salad.

Pan fried the chicken breasts in evoo, steamed broccoli, cucumber bites with cream cheese and everything bagel seasoning.
Also made a chopped southwest salad from a kit, with chipotle dressing.
I'll use the other chicken breast tomorrow, thinly sliced- tossed in the rest of the salad, for lunch.

Love those salad kits! I just finished a Dill Pickle kit - excellent! And throwing in all kinds of leftovers just makes them better!

Yes, Lee ... Three nugget-sized chicken pieces, and about a cup of sticky rice, dressed with something resembling Sweet / Sour Sauce.... Wouldn't be enough to feed the Warden, let alone me ! ... the dinner wasn't Banquet, lol !
That looks delicious!
Thanks dear.
All that fiber keeps me from snacking 😂

I had a sliced eggs on Dave's Bread with mayo. Tina had egg salad on whole wheat super
thin sliced bread. We nibbled on pickles, and I crunched on green onions after and in between bites of my sandwich. Tina said to me, "Boy Oh Boy Honey, I see you really enjoyed that sandwich!"
I replied, How can you tell?" ......She said," From all that mayonnaise sitting on your chin, and stuffed
in your left nostril!" ........

I saw a recipe on salt and lavender for a tuna/thin spaghetti dish.
Something about it said yes!
So that may be dinner.

I have that chicken carcass and will put it on to simmer then make chicken and noodle soup of a rainy day.
I bought this albacore tuna, packed in olive oil.
Genova.
It's delicious! It's not like others in that it's overly soaked in the oil and it's very meaty in texture.
Only thing different I did per the recipe is no lemon zest.
Simple and very good.

Craig likes that brand for tuna salad, but I'm pretty sure he gets the yellowfin in olive oil.

Nicoise salad. Tonnino jarred tuna filets at 12 o'clock, then clockwise grape tomatoes, French green beans, HB eggs, nicoise olives (I pitted them), potatoes tossed with white wine while hot, and sliced radish. Dressing was fresh thyme, white wine vinegar, S&P, Dijon mustard, a tiny bit of sugar, EVOO mixed with a bit of vegetable oil and some oil from the tuna jar, and the juice from the tomatoes that collected after seasoning them.
Absolutely lovely! Tonno is my favorite, and I would have liked more on the plate!

The serving was about egg sized. Craig likes it a lot more than I do so he got the bulk of it. Plus, I like the vegetables better anyway.

Pasta al tonno Is a favorite in this household. Genova brand tuna, I could remember it as a kid.
The grams and mostly all the Italians Aunts and cousins, always bought that brand, and the spaghetti and macaroni was always Conte Luna brand, until it was not in business anymore. We then switched to San Giorgio brand pasta's. Now it's Barilla brand. My great Grandmom was a Barilla until she was married. That's not the reason we buy Barilla; because we buy it for the taste and texture.
athe only difference in the recipe I'm used to, is I mince the garlic; brown 1/2 cup of bread crumbs on low heat, and then add the garlic. I add the oil and tuna, and save the pasta water to add to the tuna and crumbs so it's not too dry. Just a little at the time...... I serve it up with wedges of lemons, to sprinkle onto the pasta / tuna plate as it is eaten. ..... I'm gettin hungry just thinking of it!
