The same thing we have almost every night: quinoa or brown rice, broccoli with brussels sprouts, kale, or spinach seasoned with garlic, Braggs aminos, chili sauce, and cayenne. Possibly some faux "chicken" as well.

I had two tortillas with cheese. I had a tooth extracted today unexpectedly.. so I couldn't eat much.
I love to eat so the next few days will be hard.
Probably some frozen meal with chicken .

Busy this morning....
I have shredded BBQ beef in the oven now for sandwiches tonight. It's a chuck roast baking in a BBQ sauce. It takes 4 hours to cook; when it's done, I'll shred it for the sandwiches. Made a bowl of black bean and farfelle pasta salad as a side.....it's a new recipe that sounded pretty good and it tastes good, so it should be fine with the beef.
Remember a few weeks ago I mentioned that I had some chocolate cupcakes in the freezer? I got them out and frosted them with some French Silk frosting. We'll have a couple of those for dessert.
And I made some mint tea this morning, too.

Chicken Cordon Bleu....made an easier way (yes I'm cheating). This method is from Cook's Country.
Instead of flattening the chicken breast and rolling the breast with the ham and cheese tucked inside, you slice into the breast, creating a pocket (like you would to fill a pork chop). Then you roll the slice of ham around the shredded cheese mixture and tuck two slices into the breast pocket. You smooth out the breast, then chill them for 25 minutes. Dredge and roll in crumbs. And bake.
We'll see how it works. I've got two chicken breasts thawing now.

Since our car isn't working and our daughter will be driving past our house she is bringing us dinner, and I want Wendy's or Pizza.

I took some salmon for Aaron and some scallops for me out of the freezer and we will have them with Caesar salads. Since the rain has already started (earlier than expected) looks like I won't be grilling the seafood.
I've got tomato sauce going in the slow cooker. With plenty of beef chunks and Italian sausage. Mmmmm.......
shrimp stir fry
I use vegetable broth and tofu
Probably spaghetti tonight
I think it is going to be eggs, english muffins and turkey sausage.

New recipe I wanted to try for a spinach braciole - primal recipe, no bread, no dairy. Made a homemade marinara sauce using frozen tomatoes (last of) from our garden last year, and had fresh spinach from our garden to use in the filling
