I had salmon for breakfast this morning :D
I'm going to have leftovers: scallops, asparagus, and brussels sprouts for dinner. |
Last nights dinner, for me, lol, was lasagna with very little cheese and zucchini instead of noodles... tonight, I'm thinking I might make "mac & cheese" but use cauliflower and noodles. Hhm. I gotta look around still, lol. :D
|
I puree cauliflower and mix it half and half with cheese sauce for my daughter's mac and cheese. For myself I like to just use steamed broccoli and cauliflower:noodles probably 75:25 and cover with cheese sauce.
Last night I ended up having three leftover lemon pepper scallops and salmon with a lot of sriracha and mango salsa. I was so tired that it's all I ate. No sides :) Tonight will be Thai peanut chicken pizza with broccoli slaw. |
Asparagus is in, so I think I'll make some asparagus soup for dinner. I went off plan at the Brazilian steakhouse on Saturday, so I think I'll blend tofu in it for my protein. It'll be a nice light but filling dinner.

Finally got the bf to eat! We had the leftover slower cooker short ribs over rice. He ate 2 big bowlfuls, I think he almost cried tears of joy :D
Tonight I am going to make Chicken Teriyaki over rice with the leftover roasted chicken. I will probably need to keep the sauce on the side in case it is too much for his mouth. Found this recipe online, sounds good but I will definitely use less brown sugar-http://www.food.com/recipe/restaurant-teriyaki-sauce-133751 |

I keep looking at this sauce Asian glazed drumsticks and drooling! |
I have some asparagus to roast and I'm going to try some very well rinsed, dried and pan fried with cooking spray shirataki noodles in an asian type dish (thanks to munchy for the tips and pics lol).......and maybe some chicken thrown in.

I've never used velveeta before, but I do love soup and eat it every single day. The ones I make the most are spicy blue cheese tomato soup, carrot peanut soup, split pea soup, roasted garlic broccoli soup, and curry lentil soup. I have recipes for all of them if you're interested. |
I'm gonna make this: http://www.eatliverun.com/stacked-ro...le-enchiladas/
I love that recipe. Although, I don't use a sweet potato. :) |

I would love the soup recipes, particularly the blue tomato and the roasted garlic. They sound amazing. My grandparents are not in the best of health and my mom wants me to start cooking for them. I think soups would be good since they can easily be frozen. Well, I don't know about the milk based ones - do you freeze yours? |

The chili sauce you're talking about - is it paste like sambal oelek? I freeze almost everything :) I probably wouldn't freeze milk based soups, but I don't really make many soups that so much milk that you'd notice. That potato soup, for example, I don't think I would freeze. The broccoli soup I make is this one but I make it with whatever stock I have on hand and I mix in 1T of romano cheese into each 1 cup serving (I figured it to be 79 calories w/cheese) before freezing. The spicy tomato blue cheese soup recipe is Michael Symon's but I use dried oregano, swap evaporated skim milk for the cream, and I don't use Roth Kase, but just any STRONG blue cheese - I like Trader Joe's blue cheese crumbles. It comes out to 118 calories per cup. I recommend making chili and stews for the older ones - I do that for my grandmother - and I freeze the chili or stew in 1.5 cup portions. I also make a lot of one pot meals with rice or pasta and freeze those into portions. My rule always stays the same - I just make sure that every recipe I make has half vegetables in it, especially if I'm not eating any sides with it. I do it for myself, my child, and any family or friend I'm cooking for. The weight watchers one point chili is my absolute favorite, but I add in one more can of rinsed beans. |

And - THANKS for the website. I'm checking out Perry's Plate now! |
I've made several things from both sites and I've never been disappointed. :)

Slight change of plans - shrimp was on sale, and I found a new ginger Thai sauce/marinade from The Ginger People, so I'm having ginger Thai shrimps with my roasted asparagus soup! :drool::drool::drool: Is it dinner time yet?
