What did you cook or eat today? (October 2025)

[JAS_OH1]

I ate 3 crab Rangoon, 2 egg rolls, a few large spoonfuls of pork fried rice and a few spoonfuls of orange chicken. I'm stuffed. Still enough leftover for 2-3 more meals.

I tried scallops for the first time yesterday...

Cooked in some olive oil and finished off with some butter and garlic and they were delicious!

One of my favourites

Red lentil dahl, dry curry of potatoes, zucchini and tofu with a boiled egg and white rice

I have heard of them but never seen them. Maybe I wasn't looking for them, but I would wager most grocery stores would not carry them and I would have to look at a specialty grocer.

Really? I thought persimmons were easily available in US at grocery stores

Cooked some Farfalle pasta in the leftover tomato sauce from yesterday and added some fresh mozzarella and cherry tomatoes

 

[Barriehie]

Smoked pork and beans, buttered broccoli, Mac and cheese, and a blueberry dump cake.

Charity box for Anna, leftover boudin patties on crostini with caramelized onions and a dollop of Mac and cheese.

All looking good. I like your version of macaroni cheese.

I'm thinking of making a quick mac n cheese. Using cooked small shells, butter, Velveeta, and a splash of milk.

Panera last night - half steak sandwich and small cup creamy chicken and wild rice soup for dinner last night.

Thank you. I think the shells hold cheese rather than trying to stick it to elbows.

Yes - I also like the way its not a solid baked 'lump'!

Sounds like mine! Two weeks ago they had it with bacon and ham bits so this week was just a bit of Ms Dash table seasoning.

I don't bake

I don't bake

I can make baked Mac n cheese but it has to be in a round pan so there aren't any corners to dry out and it's got to have that layer of toasted buttery crumbs on the top.
