Fresh pasta with homemade marinara, ceasar salad, and garlic bread.
I'm home today so did some cooking.

@NHWM

I have an air-fryer and I like it. It sure beats heating the oven in this heat and it's great for cooking small batches of something.

Cashew,

I don’t have an air fryer. My daughters love their air fryers. I have an instapot and a crockpot but so far no air fryer.

I can see how the dog went crazy for his special treats!

Needhelpwithmom,
When rendering fat, there will be solids left. I left a bit more meat on them as I knew she would be happier with that. I took the solids and just popped them into my air fryer for 10 minutes to get them crispy. They aren't a baked treat.

Cwillie,
I had a few and they were yummy. lol But, I didn't nose dive.

If you fed me cracklings I'd make a nose dive of happiness too LOL

Tonight I'm having a salad and maybe some strawberry shortcake for dessert.

Cashew,

I have been wanting to bake some dog treats for my daughter’s dog. I saw a recipe that uses peanut butter. It looked easy and I think my grand dog would like it.

How do you make the crackling? Is it easy?

I feel like making a pot of soup. Not sure what kind yet. Yes, I know it is hot as hell outside but I have my air conditioning on and I eat soup year round because I love it.

I made dinner earlier today for hubby and put it in the fridge for later.

I won’t be home later, going to see a friend who is leaving rehab after her stroke. She’s moving far away to be near her son. I will miss her not living as close to me and won’t be able to visit her as much after she moves.

I made my Italian husband Italian sausage with onions, peppers and sauce with pasta.

Much too hot, so cannellini bean, spinach & tomato salad, dressed lightly.

Stay cool, friends.

My son is making us chicken tacos too. I already had coconut shrimp with my grandaughters. Not a good easy on the diet day yet labor free except for the clean up. I wish there was a car wash for houses. They all leave the next few days and I will have mounds of laundry ahead.

Tonight’s dinner? All kids home. And they brought friends. I was caught off guard. Fortunately I was able to scrounge the ingredients for a full hard and soft “fill your own” taco spread. Which proved to be popular. Lots of chatter and laughter.

TN,

Yes, it is hard to cook a small amount when we are used to cooking larger quantities. I find that I will sometimes still cook larger portions and then freeze in single serving portions.

I found it difficult to cook for one after my mom died. Used some frozen meals and started cooking my favorites and freezing some of the leftovers.

Finding hard to cook for myself only.
Bought some Shepard pie and asparagus

I love buying fresh fruits and vegetables from our local farmers markets. I also love buying the eggs, preserves, pepper jellies, pickles and herbs.

For those who go to Costco and like shrimp their frozen coconut shrimp is delicious. They include a dipping sauce. Comparable to what I have ordered in restaurants and enjoyed.

I have several dinners cooked because I cooked for my brother yesterday. No cooking today! I have roasted chicken and vegetables, spaghetti and meatballs and BBQ beef.

Hubby is a sweetheart and made our breakfast today, eggs and toast!

I cooked all day today to be able to bring a variety of dishes to my brother. I’m so tired of looking at food that I don’t have an appetite for dinner. LOL 😆

I am just going to eat a bowl of cereal for dinner and eat a good meal tomorrow.

Llama, I wish I could help you by telling you what I eat on days I find it hard to follow what I know will keep my weight down. Pounds miraculously appear!
