Cheetos Flamin' Hot Popcorn

Since you like hot stuff, have you tried the XXtra Flamin' Hot cheetos? They're amazing. A little hard to find; Walmart sometimes has them and sometimes doesn't, gas stations seem to have small bags fairly often. Habañero Takis (red bag) are also pretty good.

No, not yet. I have a list of all the spicy snacks at Walmart and I think that one was out of stock. I'm gonna try them all!

Went to the store this morning and bought celery, which I need for my lentil loaf, so I think I'll make it for tonight. Also looked for pickled beets. Found some on the bottom shelf, but it was a large bottle, which I doubted I'd ever finish, so didn't buy it.

Next time you go to the store,just get you a can of plain beets,drain the juice into a saucepan and mix with sugar and vinegar to taste,toss in a few cloves and heat the beets in that juice,stick in a covered bowl or canning jar and let it sit in the fridge a few days.

I've only seen the purple bag here. I don't think it's habanero.

Tonight was kind of catch as catch can.I have leftovers from last night but he said he wanted some of the pizza from the other night.Ok...I had a couple of pieces of peanut butter toast and there we are,such as it is.

Leftover pasta casserole with slices of avocado on the side. DH bought peanut butter dark chocolate bark when we went to a candy outlet store today so I had a little for dessert.

The lentil loaf didn't happen yesterday, so I ended up having nachos, which were a nice treat. Might try to make the lentil loaf today.

Good idea. Thanks for suggesting it.

lizzie rubysmama Add some thinly-sliced onion to the mix, too, while you're heating up the beets.

Tonight will probably be spaghetti. I'm going to be in the kitchen all day, so need something quick. We have a container of pasta sauce in the kitchen freezer that I can get out to thaw a bit. (And I'm hoping I can talk Dear Richard to making the spaghetti.)

I'll keep that in mind. And now I'm kinda excited about trying to make my own picked beets. It's been decades since I've had any type of beet at all.

Homemade broccoli and cheese soup in a (not homemade) bread bowl. It's so cold out, that seems perfect!

I do,actually,but not everybody loves their onions like I do,so I didn't even think of it.

I have been craving spaghetti for awhile now and decided tonight was the night.Since he had to go get alcohol pads at the store,I had him pick up a loaf of italian bread,so we'll have garlic bread too and a big salad ,and I think I'll take out a package of italian sausage,too.

I have been living off of leftovers, freezer food and junk since Thanksgiving because I just didn’t feel like going to the grocery. But I finally went today and am having a chicken kiev with brown rice and a cucumber salad tonight.

 

[muffy]

I had rice, black beans and mixed vegetables. One of the best protein meals I've had here.

That's great, maybe they finally figured out what a vegetarian meal consists of or they got a new chef on staff.

So happy to see that muffy . Finally they're feeding you a decent vegetarian meal.

Tonight I had my lentil loaf, peas, and some french fries (would have preferred a baked or mashed potato, but had none )
