Hubs requested nooch, cannellini bean and spinach pasta with garlic scape finishing salt. Quick and easy.
this is a busy week for us here, juggling childcare and work. So i made the filling for southwestern rolls last night. This afternoon, when we get home, all i have to do is wrap the filling in tortilla then deep fried. This is a copycat recipe from Chili's southwestern rolls, a chain restaurant that is no longer around in my area.
I was exhausted after work and so was Dh. We weren’t crazy hungry for a dinner so we had 3 different types of hummus with veggies and bread.
Shawarma sandwiches with ruby red lettuce from the garden and pickled red onions.
No pictures of the meal but used this product.

What a weirdo dinner/late snack combo I had around 7:30 p.m. Just trying to fit in the last of my calories for the day. Spread a scant 1 T. of P.B into 1" pieces of celery, then sprinkled my delicious parsnip crispy things over top. 2 more Ryvita crackers with tuna. Berries and other fruit on plate, as they are. A tiny ( hilarious ) dish with 12 grams of a burger and 1/2 an ounce of a pork loin chop with 35 gr. of potato. All diced up and topped with gravy. A treat of some light Swiss cheese melted onto my 2 poppadoms, had with salsa.
Yeah, delicious but weird.
Last night was one of those "What do you mean we have to have Dinner, didn't we just do that last night" nights.
Finally decided on pulling some Dumplings from the freezer, loving the Costco Dumplings, we have both a Chicken and Beef option right now, we just pop these in the oven for 20 minutes. Then grabbed a package of Ramen Noodles (we buy the 6 packs of just noodles with no seasonings), add some mushrooms, peppers & green onions with an Asian sauce made of Soya Sauce, Garlic, Ginger, Sesame Oil and Hosin, Stir Fried it up, Yum.
Tonight steak, baked potato and grilled veggies (onion, brocolli, carrots, peppers and snow peas- leftover veggies from bbq yesterday that my sister sent me home with!) on the BBQ. Yum!
our local asian grocery store T&T had king oyster mushroom on sale $2/pack. I got 2 but only fixed 1 because my hubby and our girls don't eat mushrooms so more for me :). Made pasta with a garlic cream sauce, pancetta and saute mushrooms.
Lunch was quite large, so my dinner and snack will be combined. Hoping to be hungry by 7 p.m.?? having snack/finger food stuff, Poppadums with salsa, Ryvita crackers lightly brushed with Mayo, cucumber slices on top. A variety of fresh berries, cantaloupe, pineapples and pear. Total grams of fruit is only 110. I'm still allowed another 1 cup of soup but something tells me I won't want it.
Last nights dinner was the shawarma style sandwiches with pickled red onions and garden lettuce.

^^^OMG! @harbie look at those beautiful huge lettuce leaves! Your garden is doing great!
Thanks @walkonby it’s a great way to fool your eyes by making it look fuller than it was with lots of those big crunchy leaves.
Having our new favourite meal tonight, Dumpings from Costco, we have both Beef and Chicken with homemade Chicken Fried Rice.
Since I am trying to increase my produce intake, I am not bad at eating produce but I would like to eat more, I am thinking I will chop up some Cucumbers, Peppers & Carrots to have on the side.
I've been anticipating since breakfast about dinner, a chance to have some of the Prime Rib roast meat that I cooked a few days ago. I'm allowing just 2 1/4 ounces as my serving but will have many side dishes to round out the plate. Sauteed mushrooms, zucchini, onions and celery. Steamed broccoli, boiled spuds and carrots and a mere 2 tblsp of my favourite canned gravy ( Franco American beef ).
The individual servings of the sides ( in grams ) might seem funny but when they're all together it works. Bon Appetite!
dropped my girls off at my parents then went out for a late lunch with my ex-coworkers, went back to my parents and my mom made me a bowl of crab noodle soup, then i took my girls back and we went to dollar tree for dempster bagels and english muffins at $1.50/each. My hubby and our girls are making some kind of cinnamon buns recipe that he saw on tiktok.
Made the Big Mac Taco that's making its way around social media. Made it vegan of course and it was SOOOO good! Served with garlic scape salt seasoned fries. Totally earned it after our 15km ride yesterday.
Tonight I will have BBQ Chicken Caesar Wraps and Mom will have BBQ Chicken Wings. I was going to make Homemade Potato Wedges but, I did not make them so Oven Fries it is.
Probably have some of the Peach Ice Cream for Dessert, this Ice Cream has been taunting in the Food Basics Flyer for weeks and this week I bought it. Had some last night OH MY so good.
Yesterday made a black bean and corn crispy burrito after our 16.4 km ride! Protein packed, cheap and most importantly…..fast!
Treating myself to 5 largish cooked shrimp ( ice cold ) with cocktail sauce, cooked carrots, raw tomato and some sauteed mushrooms. Also a Mini Lavash Pita with a hard boiled egg mushed inside with a scrape of Hellman's. Maybe a small coffee, depends when I start prepping.
Wanted pasta but was not feeling Tomato so make Instant Dump & Go Alfredo which we will add Chicken, Mushrooms & Broccoli too.
just the lean lamb meat trimmed from a chop, ( 2 oz. ) sauteed, with dill herb and S & P on it. Having with cooked carrots, baby cucumbers and a small dish of fresh berries.
fish and rice -yummmm and my chocolate ice cream cone for dessert.
i bought the smallest bundle i could find from the grocery store for another dish yet i still had lots leftover
chopped the chives and some onion, made a pancake mixture and a spicy dumpling dipping sauce
it was a hit for my 4 yrs old; my 7 yrs old does not eat anything that has "green" stuff and my hubby does not like veggies LOL
more for me

Mmmm, finished my cup of soup, a few scallops and cooked carrots, along with cucumber logs spread with a cream cheese/spinach filling. For my snack I microwaved 2 Poppadums and had them with mild salsa.
It was a Grexican night. Greek pasta salad and Mexican black bean patties. All homemade. Oh ya, and an avocado on the side. Mmmmmmm carbs and protein.
Dominos pizza 50% off
lol!! " Grexican night " , never heard that one before @harbie
I'm now into a totally diffident set of carb wafers/crackers/crisps? Not sure what to refer to them as but with each meal I usually have 2-3, spreading minimal amounts of Greek yogurt OR hummus, sometimes mayo on these then top with a variety of either sliced fruit or veg. The end results are endless! So darn yummy which helps me to ward off the temptation of evil bread...ha ha
Another advantage is they stay crisp even though they have moist toppings on them.

@walkonby It’s just a take on saying international night or what I like to call “we’re starving and what they heck do I have in the pantry that’s fast” night :lolsign:
bwahaha!!! I sure know that feeling when you want to eat NOW! What is ready instantly? I used to have a terrible habit of snacking the ingredients as I chopped or prepped the meal
( or the worst! sometimes eating cheese as I grated it ) . No more of that....
Mac salad with bbq soy curls was last night. Lots of leftovers but not 100% sure I want it again tonight. We will see how much energy I have later…..
