Having pasta, garlic bread with Caesar salad tonight:chef:
 
Chicken Fajita Pizza. Although I might make that for lunch & then I'm back to square one for supper. :D
 
I had a cooking show last night, so no leftovers, and tonight we have to go and pickup my new car....so I want to eat out. At my cooking show last night, we made the new Brownie triffle in the SB's, and my hostess didnot want me to use the coffee, so instead, I used 4 tbsp of the Sweet mocha hazlenut sprinkes and added 1/2 cup mild to the pudding and it was great. Everyone loved it and I sold several bottles of the spinkles and a couple of triffle bowls......
 
Leftover Round Steak Sauerbraten I made last night.

Thinking about trying one of the Power Cooking recipes FOR THE FIRST TIME! :)
 
Luke and I are riding to the football game with my FIL who does not want to eat out, so, hamburgers at the game.

Not at all! You would have to ADD salt to be salty - I couldn't taste a hint of salt.

You can also choose low sodium gravy if you wish...McCormick gravy I believe has a 30% less sodium gravy packet.
 
Well, I made the fajita pizza for lunch. Back to the drawing board. Both kids aren't feeling well & have been on a not eating kick lately. It's more than likely just DH & me eating what I fix.
