Gladly! You cook a box of Uncle Ben's Long Grain and Wild rice mix according to package directions. Saute a chicken breast or two to make two cups of diced chicken. Add a can of kidney beans, drained and rinsed, 1/2 cup of diced red onion, a cup of chopped tomato, 1/4 cup olive oil and 1/4 cup lime juice. Mix it all up and add chopped cilantro to taste.
Tonight will be spaghetti and salad and sourdough bread with chunks of parm that I baked yesterday.

Merrileem, my basil bush has bolted so, even with it smelling so good, the leaves are bitter. I kept plucking the flowers off but it still bolted.
I'm going to make a lasagna in the slow cooker.

Last night I grilled pork chops and served them with salad. We also had this sort of bar cookie thing DS3 made on Monday. It was amazing... but not dietetic. I'm glad it's gone!
Tonight, they are serving pizza at the bingo gathering, so that's the plan for DS2 & DS3. DS1 is working and I let him know I wouldn't be cooking so not to count on me saving him a plate (there is plenty of food he can make himself if he waits until he gets home). I am not sure what DH will do. He is picky about pizza. I might just eat a salad or a bar or something before we go.

I scored a rotisserie chicken at the food bank yesterday, so I will serve that along with mashed potatoes and chicken gravy and whatever veggie I pick up from the store. Maybe fruit too.

I am not entirely sure what DS3 made for dinner yesterday. It had chicken, turmeric, cilantro, chopped fresh poblano, and lots of spinach. It smelled awful while he was cooking... but was totally delicious. I was really surprised because it didn't taste anything like it smelled.
He has class again this afternoon. He's making a southwest grilled chicken salad.

I'm in such a food rut lately - not bad for me, I am perfectly happy munching on raw veggies, but D is always looking for more than that 🫤 he never complains, but it feels like the same thing all the time.

Last night was pan fried liver, mashed potatoes and corn.
Tonight I think I'll do a shepherds pie.

Tonight we're having chicken and grits (think shrimp and grits, but with chicken ) We're also going to grill up some zucchini to have with it.

DS3 is making some sort of roasted potatoes with toppings with southwest seasoning. It called for a LOT of different ingredients.
