What did you cook or eat today (April 2020)?

[TastyReuben]

I messed up. Did a pickup yesterday. I ordered a bone in, not sliced, 1/4 ham. I did not check the substation email. I got a package of sliced ham and pieces.
Shame on me .
Looking through the pantry and fridge for ideas. Maybe something along the lines of a twisted Mac and Cheese.

Oh, I can chop ham up into just about anything.

It is a brand I have never heard of . I will have to taste it first. May have to wash/soak it before using. The sodium content is thrthe roof.
A couple of weeks ago G went to Walmart every on Tuesday - 6 to 7 a.m. seniors only . He came home with 2 packages of Great Value sliced Black Forest ham. I decided that I wanted a grilled ham and cheese sandwich . It was SO salty that I could only eat a couple of bites . Asked him to never buy Great Value .
I made several casseroles for Thanksgiving and Christmas using fresh and fresh frozen vegetables instead of canned . When I could not find Green Giant or Birds Eye I used Great Value . The veggies were over cooked prior to freezing. They turned to mush in the casseroles
Another issue is their chicken stock - more sodium than any other brand .
Not such a great value .

Tuna pasta bake. Not very pretty but very tasty.

It is actually kind of fun to make an effort to use leftovers. I am lazy so my go to is throw everything in a saute pan - protein and vegetables, add onion, garlic, celery, maybe carrots and mushrooms, cook it down. A one pan left over stew. Cream, milk, butter or a little bit of roux to make a sauce/gravy

[medtran49]

Thai clear soup with pork meatballs, reconstituted sh!takis, and cellophane noodles.

 

[epicuric]

Lamb cutlets with colcannon, spinach and green beens. The gravy was a bit dark, but packed a huge umami punch.

Ah - a wholesaler. They are not taking further registrations.

I was talking through my peanut. They were McCain's

 

[Yorky]

Another MRE from the freezer. I must check how many MREs are left in there.

I hope you're feeling better soon. A 20-lb propane tank for our grill usually lasts us the better part of two years. It's something I've never really enjoyed much.

When I do a crawfish boil, I usually go through one tank. When Karen brought back 80# from a trip to Mississippi, I went through almost 2 tanks. I have a 40 qt pot.
