Here's what we've been eating at our house lately...
- Baked salmon with lemon and thyme roasted brussel sprouts and red skinned potatoes.
- Apple pie pancakes. I just sauteed sliced apples in butter and cinnamon and piled them on top of buttermilk pancakes and syrup.
- Pineapple and sriracha chicken thighs on rice.
- Spinach salad.
- A true 'clean out the fridge' soup made from a little leftover ground beef, rice, sliced mushrooms, onions, garlic and cream.
- Grilled Ahi tuna steaks and sauteed veggies.
- Grilled extra sharp white cheddar cheese and a bowl of roasted red pepper bisque. The bisque was sold in a carton at the grocery and it was delish! Just heat and eat. We were remembering how we had lots of Campbell's tomato soup and grilled American cheese sandwiches when we were first married and dead broke. This tasted a little better than that. haha.
Pull up a chair to the table...I'm still serving!

ReplyDeleteWhat fun
I should have said 'Hello, Pat'
Deleteas here I sat....
Eastern Passage is where you are.
Hmm...from Dartmouth is that very far?
lol nope, that's a lie
Deletemy internet is rather spry
Every time I yank it out
It says I move about
I guess the satellite changes
DeleteAnd the signal wanes over mountain ranges. Lol
Chicken and spinach for me
ReplyDeleteWith your eating spree
I wouldn't let you starve, you know.
DeleteEven have almonds on the go....
White cheddar cheese is a mystery to us.
ReplyDeleteHere in the land of cheddar cheese cheddar comes in cheese colour. Not white. However, your dinners do look tasty.
Cheese color? haha..... Gouda? Brie? Parmesan? :)
DeleteI'll see if I can find you some white cheddar chips....
Yes please!
DeleteOh my - I am so hungry now!
ReplyDeleteThose first two are calling my name *pulling up a chair*
I remember the "original" tomato soup and grilled cheese too - throwback to Sunday lunches.
I think we lived on that a spaghetti way back then! haha...
DeleteWe're definitely having the pancakes again....so yummy!
As far as I'm concerned the only Cheddar Cheese is the one that's made Cheddar in the Mother Country and ripened in Goughs Cave for at least 12 months. All other Cheddars are just the poor relations, and most taste like soap. If the packet is marked "West Country Farmhouse Cheddar" that is the pukka gen thing! And as Georgina says, the proper stuff is cheese coloured!
ReplyDeleteI think No 6 looks the tastiest to me, but why put shredded soap on it?
Aw well, I guess my tastes aren't as refined as yours!
DeleteI thought you would ask "How do you know what soap tastes like?", but that's another story. Ha!
DeleteSomething tells me that you had your mouth washed out with soap as a child!
DeleteAre you psychic? That was bang on, old gal!
DeleteI never got passed #1. Yep, even the brussel sprouts. Yummo! :)) Deb
ReplyDeleteThat dinner might have been my favorite of the bunch, too!
DeleteI so remember the tomato soup and grilled cheese routine. It actually was a life saver during those early years.
ReplyDeleteExactly! We ate it all the time...that and spaghetti...oh, and canned tuna. :)
DeleteIt all looks delicious. I love the idea of Brussels sprouts with mushrooms.
ReplyDeleteI had never done that before but they were very tasty!
DeleteI would love to have 1, 3, or 6. I'd really like to have pancakes, too, but I've become a healthy eater and turn down all the greats I grew up on. I remember the grilled cheese days . . . I think I used to eat those 2 or 3 times a week! Not sure if you have McAlister's in Dayton, but they have a wonderful four cheese grilled sandwich that's so yummy!
ReplyDeleteMarla
We're closer to the McAlisters in Beavercreek and have eaten there a few times! I haven't had their grilled cheese, though....it sounds delish!
DeletePancakes seem to be our Sunday brunch splurge....a little reward for eating healthy all week. Well, we have pizza on Sunday nights...so I guess we're splurging all day on Sunday! haha...
You should try it . . .it's really good. I love them!
DeleteI hear ya about the splurging! My go to for that these days has become a frozen yogurt smoothie or a blizzard at Dairy Queen. Dessert can be a wonderful thing. lol
Either of those...the smoothie or the blizzard would be fine by me! Yum! I have such a sweet tooth! I just do better if I don't have the stuff in the house calling my name! haha...
DeleteGosh, I'm always late. Probably nothing left at the dinner table.
ReplyDeleteOh, it's all all-nite diner here.....something's always available! haha...
DeleteWell Hallelujah, because I'm starving.
DeleteI hope my husband never sees this. We are still eating grilled American cheese sandwiches. Year 34. 😑 you are amazing!
ReplyDeleteHaha...ok...now you must buy some yummy cheese and shock him next time. I hope you use real butter, too! :)
DeleteThis post has my mouth watering!
ReplyDeleteHaha...well, thanks, Angie!
DeleteI love the way you cook...simple, basic and so good!!!!
ReplyDeleteJane x
Exactly...nothing complicated or time consuming....I like it that way!
DeleteHi Betsy - they all look delicious .. and I'd love to be there sharing one or two with you! Mind you I can't complain ... and I've just had 11 days away of eating out ... cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteLucky you! I can't wait to hear all about it!
DeleteMmm... all look delicious but actually I don't think you can beat a toasted cheese sandwich and some good soup.
ReplyDeleteYes, there's something very comforting about it! We eat a lot of soup when the weather turns colder...so yummy!
DeleteYour meals always look soooooo delicious, and I'm sure they are!! That salmon patties with roasted veggies has become one of our favorites here. Wish I lived closer... I'd definitely pull up a chair and join you!!
ReplyDeleteWell, I wish you lived closer, too! :)
DeleteHi Betsy !
ReplyDeleteJust like Deb, I had trouble passing by the first photograph....roasted Brussel sprouts ....simply delicious :)
You eat so healthy, my husband would expect a side-order of mashed potatoes and bread, with all of his meals !
Thank you for the kind comments, they truly help heal the pain.
Hugs,
Jo
It's great to see you back at home. :)
DeleteEverything looks delicious! I especially love the Pancakes and Pineapple and sriracha chicken thighs on rice.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Both of those were really yummy! Can't wait to have them again!
DeleteYes, we all lived on grilled cheese and tomato soup in those first years! Still enjoy them, thankfully! Love your new header!
ReplyDeleteWe still enjoy them, too....just with a little upgrade. haha. But I still buy Campbell's...nice to have in the pantry!
DeleteYes, we all lived on grilled cheese and tomato soup in those first years! Still enjoy them, thankfully! Love your new header!
