Time to review how I did on my meal plan for Week 3 which was on the cool side, with highs in the low 70s.
This was the plan:
Brunches: Waffles and corned beef✔, egg salad sandwiches, Indian style cream of wheat, toast and peanut butter
Brunch: Cup of tea (I was not hungry)
Dinner: Tomato soup (made from the leftover salad that S had given; tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, basil, garlic powder; I tossed the black olives as I don't really like olives and didn't think they'd taste good in the soup)

Snacks/Desserts: Yellow cake, Fuyu persimmons from the garden
Tuesday:
Brunch: Corned beef hash (leftover corned beef, potato, tomatoes, onion, chili powder, garlic powder) and a scrambled egg

When I first glanced at the tomato soup, I thought it was a pumpkin pie. :) However, both are good. Maybe next week, I'll see a picture of an actual pumpkin pie. Do you like them?
ReplyDeleteNow that you've mentioned it, the soup does look a bit like pumpkin pie, doesn't it? I do like pumpkin pie, but, I don't think I will be having any until Thanksgiving. :)
DeleteThe meal plan this past week was:
ReplyDeleteSunday: chicken, pepper, onion, broccoli stir-fry & rice
Monday: smoked turkey sausage, potato pancakes, corn
Tuesday: haddock, peppers, rice
Wednesday: zucchini, meatballs, sauce, salad
Thursday: steak, broccoli, frozen cauliflower, mixed vegetables
Friday: salmon, mashed potatoes, frozen vegetable mix
Saturday: salad with anchovies & white beans.
There were salads for lunch, soup and some bars, nuts, packaged snacks for nephew who was out and about most days.
I love your photos of meals. The waffles look especially delicious!
Your meal plan sounds delicious! Something different every day, too! I took the photos mostly to remind me what I ate! LOL. But, thank you!
DeleteThere aren't many foods that I don't like but tomato soup is one of them. Corned beef hash I do like. I have my grocery order delivered this afternoon and we will be having a roast lamb dinner this evening, the leg of lamb is roasting in the oven right now, I'm giving salads a miss now the weather is cooler.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny that I don't like fresh/raw tomatoes, but, I like tomato soup, pasta sauce, tomato chutney, etc. :) I hope you received everything you ordered, Eileen; your lamb roast sounds delicious! It's been a long time since I've had lamb - the regular grocery store doesn't have it, only the ethnic grocery stores carry it.
DeleteThat soup looks good! Seeing the waffles makes me almost regret donating my waffle iron a few years ago!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Bushlady. It was a good way to use up the tomatoes and peppers from the salad! Oops, sorry the picture of the waffles almost made you regret donating your waffle iron! I love waffles and so does my daughter, so I will be keeping my waffle iron. :)
