On the 13th I made my best ever version of a chx soup with rice. Used the large chx quarter legs this time for the initial simmer. Just basic onion, large celery butt wrapped and tied in cheesecloth , S & P, to get the pot going to a rumble.
Once the chx softens all the way I remove the celery butt and the chx legs to cool and pick just the good meat out.
Add carrots, green onion tops, fresh sliced celery and a large sweet potato ( diced).
Tossed in the 2 cups cooked Basmati rice, added back the meat chunks, then carton broth to bring the liquid level back. This time I also added some of that chx powder stock.
Maybe that stuff made this extra tasty?
We've been souping steady since Monday! lol.

Tonight we are having BLSL chicken breast and garlic shrimp, green beans, mushrooms with onion and ceaser salad.

Breaded pan fried pork chops, Mashed potatoes and steamed cabbage-seems like a comfort meal for a chilly day.

Went grocery shopping today and I was cleaning out the fridge I saw we had some older onions and mushrooms to use up. French Onion Pasta Bake was the obvious choice as it uses both Onions & Mushrooms. I will probably also make a Caesar Salad to go with it as I have some lettuce to use up too.

Love nights like these were we can use things up before they would have to be tossed.

Pressure cooked 2 small trays of bite sized diced blade steak with onions, raspberry vinaigrette dressing, soy sauce and red wine for 25 min at med pressure. Removed all meat/onions from pot once soft added in carrots, celery and spuds. less than 6 minutes, they're done.
Added meat/onions back into pot, then filled 2 Tender flake pie crusts heaping full, covered with 2 more top crusts.
Baked at 350 for 35 min.
Such a simple method. No sides needed, a complete meal.

I picked up samosas from our butcher today. They were tasty.
We had canned corn as well. I haven't had as much luck with frozen corn lately (tough and frosty) so it was nice to have a "fresher" taste.

On Wednesday I made a large cabbage roll casserole, there was enough for leftovers yesterday and froze 2 containers for later, not sure today. We have a storm moving in this afternoon so I'm going out this morning to do my last minute BIG Christmas shop (I live in a small place so if I don't get what I need now it won't be available in a few days!) Maybe make a pizza or takeout if its not too stormy later.

We have friends coming for dinner and a sleepover tonight. They are renovating their house so we're having monthly dinners here.

My friend is bringing homemade lasagna and caesar salad
I'm baking buns (I use the breadmaker for the dough) and brownies (I'll heat them and top with ice cream)

Tomorrow morning, they want to head off quickly so I'm making bran muffins, hard boiled eggs and fruit

[SassyAshley]

I am thinking Homemade Pizza night, thinking Friday night Pizza and maybe a Movie on Netflix

Sounds like a blast of a get together! Good food and in person conversation! You go girl!

I am in support of both the pizza and the Netflix! Enjoy your 2 weeks away from work!!

I am impressed it is lunch time and we have decided on Dinner. Lately dinner has been that nagging questions, I am feeling burnt out so by dinner time I am done and want easy.

Tonight will be Meatloaf (pulled from the freezer), mashed potatoes and a veggie (TBD). I am thinking Roasted Butternut Squash and maybe some Brussel Sprouts too.
