I remember the days of eating cake or cookies for dinner. That was before my doctor said the words "high cholesterol to me. Oh well.

Well all that prep cooking I did on Sunday has really paid off for me this week. I work 9-6 this week so not a lot of time to come home and cook a big meal from scratch so I Cooked up a pot of lentils, a pot of rice and I've been switching it up all week with the bag of broccoli and the bag of arugula I bought. You would be amazed how versitile you can get with just those ingredients. I just defrost various quick cooking meats in the fridge while I'm at work and then throw it together when I get home. Last night we ate the last of the rice. It was delicious. Tonight we will probably finish up the lentils.

I'm going to add curry spices to the lentils tonight then serve with seared venison medalions and carrot raita.

Roasted chicken for Jon. I had popcicles.
On the bright side since I have the flu I have lost three pounds lol.

I had a hand-full of leftover crumbled bleu to get rid of- along w/ a pair of Tyson mesquite chicken breasts, so I made a huge Cobb Salad- big enuf for supper at home tonight, plus a bit to bring in to work for my mid-night meal. A bed of greens, crumbled bleu cheese, grape 'maters, avacado, chix breast, bacon and poppyseed dressing.

I went to Aldi's and they don't usually carry pesto- but they had jars of it for an amazing $1.99 tonight! I bought 6 of them along w/ 4 Boboli pizza crusts. Friday Night I am going to a friend's for dinner (a date!) but Saturday I look forward to making a yummy pesto pizza!

Another Friday of Lent. I am running out of meatless ideas. My wife and I will probably have scallops tonight but the kids won't eat fish. I've made pizza, grilled cheese, mac n cheese, tomato soup, waffles and pancakes so far. Maybe I'll make a batch of perogies for tonight.
