What a nice dinner we had last night, all leftovers. I made Quickie Chickie again (finished the chicken) - it is SO good, and the recipe is in a previous post. We split the remaining baked potato (if you cut really small bites it lasts awhile!), and enjoyed a big salad with ... ONE of the remaining carrots. Ice cream hit the spot later in the evening (there's still some left, E).
I plan to make bread and cookies this weekend, possibly with the help of some grandchildren. Once we're back home from our housesitting gig, our own pantry and freezer will be front and center once again. With great plans in mind, I had brought some items from our pantry to use while housesitting...they never happened. They'll be first up at our house, though - a can of tuna, quinoa, some pancake mix from Trader Joe's (it's really good). Oh - not toGETHER, of course!
Once again, I realize just how easy we have it, trying to figure out what to make from items already on the shelf or in the freezer. I'm well aware that many do not have anything on their shelves to choose from...be thankful for what you do have, and for organizations like Meals on Wheels and InterFaith Food Shuttle. Thanks for reading and commenting - keep them coming. See you on Monday.
