No need to force -- I like Britt. I also did NOT think her food looked shitty. It just isn't what I eat.

I took that photo off the internet, but it looked just like my tomato.You might want to wait a few days to raid the garden. They're still coming slowly right now - there'll be another couple of ripe ones by the end of the weekend.
French dip. It has been in the crock pot four hours already, with another three or so to go. Should be good and tender.
Tonight I'm woking fish with cabbage and portobello mushrooms in black bean sauce. Never woked portobello mushrooms before, it's an experiment.
Leftover chicken breast and brussels sprouts with chickpeas, overtop fresh tomato-lentil couscous.
A beautiful meal Janine.I'm making butternut squash ravioli. Well, cooking it. Trader Joe's made it.
Leftover hot dogs, chicken, and steak from the 4th. Finishing with these wonderfully clogging cookie bars called Carmelita Bars.

Homemade Eggplant Parm with Garlic bread and for dessert Toffee Bar brownies with a side of ice cream.
That sounds really good.I'm fighting a losing battle against my leftovers from two weekend feasts. And I *hate* wasting food, so I'm shoveling more of it in than I should.
My aunt has a house at the shore where all my family has been gathering all week plus random stray guests. I am the designated cook for 20+ We hate wasting food too and are all going to need a food detox once this week is over.
What's for dinner tonight?? Maybe mustard if I don't get my lazy butt to the grocery store. Gotta roll.
We ended up eating a really nice tortellini salad from the HyVee deli. It would be easy peasy to make:Cook some rainbow tortellini.
Add:
Chopped red bell pepper, chopped black olives, chopped red onion, shallots, olive oil and red wine vinegar.
Serve over a bed of fresh greens.
Pasta with a boursin-tomato sauce. I melted 4 oz. of boursin with a little milk, then threw in black pepper, hot red pepper flakes, and some tomato sauce with sausage.
At the moment all my meals involve using the courgettes we've grown in the garden in as many different ways as possible.
I'm going to http://thereddoorsd.com/ on a date with an ex-boyfriend. I normally don't recycle, but I might in this case. I think I'll have Wild Mushroom-Scallop Risotto with a nice glass of Pinot Noir - or two. ;)
Rigatoni with vodka sauce and a ceaser salad. My husband doesn't eat pasta but he is gone all this month...Ill probably make this everynight.
