[Cooking Goddess]

I was going to make smothered chicken, but my mushrooms were mush. I thought I would make chicken saltimbocca, but my sage had sagged. Since the outside temperature was dropping while I thought what to do, I ended up making chicken and barley stew. After all, I had an abundance of spinach to get rid of. Besides, we really like it.

What did you have to eat?

I'm a klutz today. I decided it would be better if I didn't use sharp knives or the stove. So we ordered burgers.

As it was the start of the WCWS I decided that for the duration of the games it would be 'simple' food or dine out.

I made a hot dog for me and meatloaf sandwich for Jeannie.

Dessert was Aldi Apple Strudel.

We had pulled pork sandwiches from last weekend's smoke, topped with cole slaw and hot sauce and marinated cucumbers on the side. I was so tired I forgot to take a picture.

DD made brussels sprouts salad, a slaw, fresh mini sweet peppers, and bone in, pan fried ribeyes cooked to betwen rare, and medium rare. Simple seasoning of salt and pepper. Very tasty supper.

Busy day, trip to OHSU & Portland traffic! I took a cue from msmofet and made a Copycat Hamburger Helper. We had salad with fresh produce we found at a Farmers Market across the street from the Hospital. It was a good and comforting meal! Homemade ice cream for dessert. Yum!

Thanks ginny, my DIL is going to be stressed over the next couple of weeks so I'm going to step in more when the kids are here. That one should work!

Glad you can use it! Another good and easy Mac recipe: https://www.copymethat.com/r/Tc4I30Jv5/marys-macaroni-cheese/

NOTE: Velveeta has a "box" that has 4 oz "bars" inside. That's what I use, x2, for this recipe.

lol - it ain't Mac'n Cheese if there's no Velveeta!

Grilled Cheese as well - has to be Velveeta Kraft Slices.

So, what are those dishes called when made with other cheese instead of Velveeta?

I think they may be "pasta" instead of "mac"?

 

[dragnlaw]

While other cheeses may be in it, it is not my comfort food from waaay back, you know, the way my mama dragon made it!
