Soup and baked potatoes.  Keeping suppers simple.  It's Lent.

 ;)

Is this where I blame iPhone and cuss like an old fighter pilot's wife?

Just finished making up a shepherd's pie for dinner.  Will probably serve it with some extra veggies, grapes, and leftover cheesecake for dessert.

I put WAY more effort into making this one than last time, so hopefully it is good.  If not, I suppose it is an excuse to do it the lazy way like I did before.

Thinking that my dinner will be pulled pork French bread pizza.  I hate shepherd's pie, but it's one of DH's favorites, and is a great way to use up leftover roast.

Poached salmon filet (milk, white wine (shut up!)  Vermouth, dill, vidalia onion, lemon, S&P)

Steamed white & red potatoes with parsley.

Steamed whole green beans with garlic sauteed in olive oil.

. . . I skimped on the salt & all could have used more . . . trying to do better by the over-50s in the house and not have kids conditioned to such salty fare.


Not enough leftovers for tomorrow night (bummer!) but that makes me feel good.  This was a wing it supper with hubby taking kids to swim lessons -- it took me less than 50 minutes to have it done and on table. 

I'd like a Brownie button about now (or GS badge) LOL!

Last night:  friends over.  Goat cheese tamales (the masa had a kalamata olive paste in it) with a fig and lemon curd tapenade, some kid of steak that DH dry rubbed with coriander and (waaaaaaay too much) salt (and it was undercooked for me, so I didn't eat much), and kale with carmelized onions and balsamic vinegar. 

With pomegranate margaritas.

Some pics:



Honeydew & proscuitto as an appetizer (with cheese and crackers)





The tapenade:





Leftover tamale for lunch today at my desk (with an Amy's spinach & feta pocket).

A favorite of Becca's - Tater Tot Casserole

(It's really not as bad as others out there - one lb ground beef, one chopped onion and a drained can of green beans, seasoned with worchetshire and ketchup, topped with tater tots and cooked in the oven for the same length tater tots needs then topped with shredded cheese).  We cannot use anything that involves cream of crap so I have to skate around that for many recipes.

YouKnowWho, would this website work for you?  I'm not gluten free (although I have a good friend who is extremely intolerant of gluten) and use these recipes.  http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/  The blogger cooks gluten free for her youngest daughter.

OMG I love you and I love her!

Thank you so much!!!  This is exactly what I have been looking for and can easily tweak for most of the members of the family (not to mention fitting in much better with the changes we have been aiming for in our lifestyle).
