What's for Dinner, Sun., Febr. 27, 2022

I think we're ordering in some Chinese, since I am at my friend's house trying to fix her new computer (she lost her admin password).

Sesame noodles for sure!

And General Tso's and Mu Shu Pork.

No roasted chicken comfort food in our house tonight!

Our neighbor, (a single lady in her mid-40s who recently lost her boyfriend to a heart attack), just invited us over to her house for homemade pizza. I know I have a couple bottles of chianti downstairs.

Have a great week and good luck, NJCher, with your friend's computer!

It's reasonably priced and full-flavored. Wines, of course, are very personal when it comes to their flavors.

Thankfully, we hadn't put the chicken in the oven before our friend called! Bonus: I won't have to clean the kitchen!

Have a great week, elleng!

HOPE my taste for wines returns. Did have glass of prosecco on Feb. 4, and was pretty good.

Beer battered fish and crinkle fries from frozen. I put on a pot of tomato sauce, started with sliced stick pepperoni for flavor. Tomorrow making ricotta cheese in the morning to put together a lasagna for dinner tomorrow night.

Half of the cheesecake is now gone. I sliced a hunk of it off for neighbors across the road from us and he just dropped it off for them.

And a Reese’s ice cream cake for dessert

Pink fish (she’s 5-it’s what she calls salmon) asparagus and egg noodles. Dessert is always vanilla ice cream topped with honey. This is her favorite, followed closely by roast chicken, broccoli, and egg noodles. Dessert never changes!

with potatoes and carrots in sauce. First time making this recipe, I was skeptical, but it actually was pretty good.

Canned whole cranberry sauce(ocean @pray)
Del monte canned corn (favored with butter, pepper, salt, morton seasoning and Lowrys garlic salt.
Coke.
No desssert as the cranberry sauce satisfied the sweet tooth.

The recipe called for peas but I had some asparagus I wanted to use sooner rather than later, and it worked well. The broth was great for sopping up some crusty bread.
