I'm sick today, so ham and/or pastrami sandwiches, raw veggies, potato chips and ice cream sundaes.


I have no idea what pastrami even tastes like.  But when I jokingly suggested it to my fiancee, he wanted it.

I'm roasting a chicken tonight.  Veggies in the pot with it.

I've had luck the last few times I made gravy....so I'm hoping that works tonight too.

I'm making gemelli with the portobello mushroom sauce from 'The Complete Italian Vegetarian' cookbook.  DH and DD will be very happy since they love this.  I'm also going to make a huge batch of regular red sauce on the side while I'm cooking this so I can freeze it and have some easy meals when I'm too  busy/tired to cook over the holidays.

Of course!

Portobello Mushroom Ragu

2 portobello mushrooms, diced
olive oil
1 medium onion, minced
1 tsp. basil
salt and pepper
1/2 cup red wine
1 large can tomatoes (I use crushed)
parmesan cheese (optional)

Saute onion in olive oil until translucent.  Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and are giving off liquid.  stir in the basil, salt and pepper.  Add wine and simmer about 3 minutes.  Add the tomatoes and simmer until sauce thickens (about 15 minutes).

Serve over pasta (the recipe says penne).  Top with grated parmesan cheese, if desired (and you don't have allergies to it!).

OMG - that looks amazing, as well as super-easy.  And except for eldest son (who's away at school anyway  ;) ), we are serious mushroom fans here.

Thank you so much!

Thinking breakfast for dinner here as well.  Pancakes for kids, and dh, but I need something else for me.  Oh, bacon as well.  I found a very good one at Trader Joe's, that is thick cut, 40% lower in fat than regular pork bacon(but it is pork bacon), and no nitrates. 

I am so bored when it comes to dinner ideas.  Kids do not do sauces, or anything mixed together other than chicken soup.  Sigh...

steak on the grill, baked potatoes and roasted brocolli

Not what I had planned but it's warm out and dh requested something manly on the grill, so there you have it :)

10 minutes tops, and we had an early dinner:

Market Pantry chicken ravioli and chees tortelini with Hunts "No sugar added" sauce (comes pureed, so I don't have to!!)

Frozen cheesy toast.

steamed broccoli.

EVERYONE ate the same thing!!!

Pulled pork from the slow cooker.  Mac and cheese, celery and carrots, blackberries with whipped cream.

Leftovers.  Last night was a pot roast (with GF beer) in the pressure cooker, with onions, parsnips, and sweet potatoes.  Got plenty leftover for tonight and the veggies making my oogy tummy happy.
