fairffaxx February 2, 2019 Share February 2, 2019 One of the most popular dishes at my office potlucks was Zatarains Jambalaya mix with Costco's jumbo cooked shrimp stirred in (2 lb bag of frozen tail-off shrimp per box of Zatarains). Simplest thing in the world to prepare -- add water to rice mix, cover and simmer 25 minutes, stir in thawed shrimp, pack in microwaveable serving dish to reheat when ready to serve (remember to take a big beautiful serving spoon). The office "vegetarians" were actually "pescatarians" who ate fish, so everyone could enjoy this and did. I sometimes made it at home when we had company and served with cornbread, green salad, and a relish tray. Now I'm hungry.... 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/11962-what-did-we-eat-today/page/108/#findComment-5028031

DeLurker February 3, 2019 Share February 3, 2019 Last night I tried baked Greek chicken and Greek fries. The marinade for the chicken was easy - yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest & juice, garlic, oregano, parsley...but it turned out a bit blander than I was hoping. I saw some recipes using balsamic vinegar instead of yogurt, so I may try one of these next time. The baked Greek fries turned out well and will be making future appearances at my dinner table.

Tomorrow night will be stuffed chicken breast as the main course; I defrosted one and forgot about it, so it needs to be used! It's the perfect size for stuffing, so I'm going to stuff it with spinach, mushroom, and Swiss cheese.

DeLurker February 14, 2019 Share February 14, 2019 Last night we grabbed some to go food since I had various errands to run. A local pizza place has a couple of stores and makes an amazing salad with artichoke, feta and chicken in it so I got that and chicken fettuccine for my daughter. The same plaza has a couple of drive throughs and so I picked up Jack In the Box for my son. I have two of the pizza shops near me and it is splitting hairs which one is closer. But at one of them, I consistently get a much larger serving of the salad so I choose that one. Since I eat it as a meal, I get 2 servings out of it.

BuyMoreAndSave March 2, 2019 Share March 2, 2019 We didn't have time to go shopping last week and I still had produce from the last shopping trip so I made a super lazy meal to use up the remaining produce before it went bad yesterday -- red lentils cooked with red cabbage and black radishes. Black radishes are these weird scaly looking things that taste like a regular radish, but are way more tough and fibrous so they're nearly impossible to chew raw. Anyway I've only ever eaten cabbage and radishes raw or pickled, so I learned that hard way that cooking them completely kills any flavor and the radishes came out tasting more like parsnips. It was still good though because lentils are one of my favorite foods and I also put hot sauce on it. As time goes on I find myself getting more and more grossed out by processed food and especially how salty it is, and this was great compared to the processed crap I've been eating this week.
