Don’t know! Cucumbers are coming in strong and tomatoes in the garden, so that will be a salad for sure!!

We normally really enjoy farm to table restaurants, so I looked for one yesterday within 30 miles of our hotel. There was one that offered grilled chicken breast, so we gave it a try. After we arrived, we discovered it was much heavier on the farm than the table. It did have a fun theme complete with a country store, servers dressed in overalls & plaid shirts & even tractor rides for those who were so inclined.

Anyway, on to the food. For appetizers, DH ordered fried chicken livers. I had sauteed mushrooms. We shared the grilled chicken. It came with wild rice & steamed broccoli. The entree also included your choice of 2 out of 3 offered sides that they called "fixins". We chose cottage cheese & baked apples. DH ate chicken, rice & the baked apples. I had chicken, cottage cheese & broccoli. There was also some type of roll & baked apple bread. DH didn't care for either of those.

And it begins! I’m planning to put up pickled “zukes” this summer so wish me luck at the farmers’ market.

I’m so glad I over shopped on prepared food this weekend. It’s too hot to cook in the house right now.

@tarheelmjfan - there’s an article in today’s NYTIMES that gathers 27 no cook recipes together, many of which are health conscious. I can’t link them all here but can a few. Any suggestions on ingredients you’ve an interest in?
Here’s one to get you thinking…

Tonight, I had some green salad mixed with lox, capers, lemon and cherry tomatoes with a cup of sorrel soup on the side. I’m going to look for some avocados in the market tomorrow; they are always good to add to cold dishes this time of year.

Thanks for the link. That looks great.

As for ingredients we like, we'll eat anything under normal circumstances. Unfortunately, that has needed to change. I'm trying to eat heart healthy, which limits my diet a lot. Part of that is being conscience of the amount of fat & calories I consume. This has proven to be difficult in our current location. We will eat any type of cuisine though.

I forgot to leave something out to thaw so dh threw some seasoned chicken thighs in the crockpot on high when he got home from work. He pulled those and we added his homemade bbq sauce to have bbq chicken sandwiches, tater tots and corn.

Had some DLux barbecued burger, fries and Coke Zero sugar. Rest of the party had some crummy Chinese food from 10 mins away from Disney.

My boss is in town so a few of us had dinner with him tonight. I had a shrimp Cesar salad.

I left the restaurant at 8:15 and it was still 86 degrees. I think tomorrow is supposed to be a little cooler.

Tonight was breakfast for dinner. We had pancakes with butter and maple syrup, bacon and eggs.

Last night was kind of a hot mess overall.

As for dinner, DH made steak, mashed potatoes and carrots.

Tonight is Screamin' Sicilian "Mother of Meat" pizza b/c I don't feel like cooking, I forgot to take out burger, and the freezer is getting low on food til grocery shopping tomorrow.

 

[evilmommie]

I think I’m going to cook up some meat sauce and corkscrew pasta for dinner tonight. I have my little buddy DGS over Friday/Saturday and the leftovers can be his dinner tomorrow.

Chef Salad tonight......ham, turkey, hard boiled egg, whatever cheese I can find in the fridge....maybe some tomatoes.

We had burgers and hot dogs last night instead so tonight is bbq chicken legs, salad and green beans

Last night, we went to a dinner show to see Chicago, so I accepted that I was probably going to have to break my diet. I could have done worse, but I definitely could have been better. Unfortunately, my lack of willpower won out.

DH had Italian Beef served open faced on toasted garlic bread w/ a side of giardiniera. I had Tuscan shrimp minus the sauce. The meals came with tossed salad, scalloped potatoes, parmesan green beans & a roll. I skipped the potatoes & ate DH's giardiniera instead.

Not so bad from a limited menu, right? If only, I'd stopped there. I just couldn't seem to resist the delicious roll & sharing the chocolate caramel bundt cake w/ice cream that DH wanted to add.

Tonight I went out to dinner with a few coworkers to celebrate a retirement. I had lobster bisque and salad. DH grilled something, maybe hot dogs, he had cut up watermelon and pasta salad with it.

A bit of a pantry meal tonight.
Took some roasted chicken out of the freezer, opened up a can of black beans and a tiny one of corn, and added some minced or chopped fresh tomatoes, onions, garlic and bell pepper to a bowl. Added a myriad of Mexican seasonings and found myself with a chili bean salad.

Enough made to keep me happy for a few days.

Succumbed to the beauty of the season’s strawberries and used 2 lbs to make syrup. Think it’ll be nice as the drink basis for the 4th of July.

We shared two appetizers (rock shrimp & chicken Thai lettuce wrap). For our entree, we shared Ahi Tuna Poke bowl.

Left over night.....we have meatloaf, Smash burgers and Azteca chicken, so no lack this week.

DGD is going over this afternoon to bake a cake for DD's birthday on Sunday Tomorrow she will come to make the frosting and do the decorating of it.
