I told him I'll start tomorrow . I'm hungry for pasta so tonight we're having pasta bolognese and oven roasted vegetables.Oh sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh, my favorite dinner on earth is Spaghetti Bolognese, on my gosh, it's even really wonderful in Tuscany. Oh how do you make yours? Secrets please!
I have been WW'ing for a month now. Haven't noticed a huge difference in my weight or that I've lost much. My jeans are falling off, but my thoughts are that's because they are low waisted and my hips are smaller I think. Any which way, my husband would not in a million years, go for a weight watcher food diet.
crewsk said:Well, I went to the store this morning after taking the kids to school. I walked up & down the meats for 10 minutes trying to decide what I wanted, I'm tired of chicken, beef, & pork chops. I finally settled on a ham. It's in the oven now & we're having mac & cheese, pineapple casserole, mashed potatoes, gravy, & biscuits with it.
FraidKnot said:I'm going to put together a simple black bean chili. It's cold outside (for west Tennessee) so I don't feel like going to the store. I don't have a recipe for this. I have tomato sauce, I have (canned) vegetable stock. I have canned black beans (I rinse them first), I have ground beef. I have herbs and spices galore. I don't have any fresh onion or garlic but I keep dehydrated minced onion & garlic on hand which will work in a pinch. I'm just going to wing it. Might make a pan of cornbread to go with it. I luuuuuvs me some cornbread!Fraidy

LEFSElover said:curious, do you use the Paula Deen recipe for your pineapple casserole? The one with butter and cheddar cheese? It is so good but my problem with it is that I always leave it in the oven too long and that's ruined it every time I've made it.
Flourgirl said:I'm making shredded beef tacos tonight. They remind me of my childhood. In Costa Rica, where my mother was born, tacos are made using a slow-cooked shredded beef cooked with tomatoes and onion instead of a spicy ground beef which are more a Mexican, Tex/Mex style. We also use soft ground corn tortillas instead of crispy shells. Toppings are simple, finely shredded lettuce or cabbage and thin-sliced tomato, for the sauce, it's a mayonnaise seasoned with a little red chili powder, tobasco and lime. No cheese or sour cream on these tacos, they don't need it, just some yellow rice on the side.
crewsk said:I had to scratch the pineapple casserole. I opened the fridge to get out the block of cheese I had in there & it was GONE!! I guess hubby used it for cheese toast or something. Oh well, I made baked apple pies instead. I cheated on them by using a can of apple pie filling & canned biscuits but they still taste good.
