Deli plate lunch from Foodland.

Re: What's for Dinner - Chapter 4

I was lazy...

So we had boiled tiny potatoes, home-made canned pork and beans, a few slices of bacon that were lurking at the bottom of the freezer, and fried eggs.

And some really good juice from Spain...fruits of the forest...a mixture of strawberry, raspberry, cherry, and red grape juices.

Re: What's for Dinner - Chapter 4

And I'm still feeling rather lazy....

So I mad a quick soup. Fried an onion with a chicken stock cube, a bayleaf, a pinch of thyme, a splash of green Tabasco, a pinch of dried parsley, garlic and chive mixture, and a spoonful of flour, then I added water, a jar of homcanned potatoes and one of cabbage and simmered it all til it looked delicious...I squashed the vegetables a bit with a fork...just before eating it I splashed in the rest of a can of evaporated milk and a spoonful of powdered milk. We had croutons over the top.

There'll be almost enough left for tomorrow's lunch, if I throw in a jar of homemade green soup (anything green, steamed with herbs and pureed and canned).

For dessert, there was cake. I put them into canning jars, too...but they never seem to last, as the kids find where I hide them everytime.

4 eggs
one cup of self-rising flour
1/2 cup of soft spreadable-kind margarine (the kind in a tub, already soft)
1/2 cup of sugar
one teaspoon baking powder

Beat it all for only forty seconds and bake at 350°F til light brown and risen.

You can do this in a small cake pan, or do as I do and bake it in canning jars filled almost halfway full and when just done, cap the jars with lids that have been in almost-boiling water and stick the cakes back into the oven for a few more minutes, then take out and cool and wait for the seals to 'ping'.

(for variety, add vanilla or grated lemonpeel or poppyseeds to the basic batter)

A chicken leg and thigh and a big salad with veggies.
(Note to self: in the future do NOT buy a rotisserie chicken unless it's from Costco...<sigh!>)

Re: What's for Dinner - Chapter 4

used to be a member of both sam's and costco. only sam's now and their rotisserie chicken is good, too. never had one from costco. don't particularly care for the one from foodland.
