    @pinuplove Is that lemon meringue?


    My sister asked me to bring appetizers for Thanksgiving dinner, so I'm going to make these for one of them:

    Prosciutto, Parmesan & Dijon rolled in puff pastry and baked until crispy.

    I'm also going to make a spinach and artichoke dip, spiced mixed nuts and round it all out with crackers and cheese.

    Do you have a recipe for those puff pastry appetizers? I also was assigned "appetizer" and was going to do something very similar - assorted cheese and salami plus spiced almonds and thinking of either baked brie bites or something with puff pastry - I had a recipe for bacon straws but yours sounds more elegant...

    Yep, I pulled the recipe from here: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/14900/prosciutto-and-parmesan-pinwheels/

    Instead of a baking sheet, I use a muffin tin to keep them in a better shape.

    Most of my food is frozen, pre-packaged, or take-out. Pretty sure that's not within most people's definitions of clean. Healthy is even debatable. I do take a multi. Sometimes. Don't hold that against me, though.

    Friend just brought over 2 personal vegan quiches from her restaurant last night. Having one for lunch with soup (Hubby will have the other) and I'm going out with friends for pizza tonight. Planning to walk both ways to the restaurant (it's 40 minutes each way) so I can fit both things in.

    I eat healthy-ish. Mostly nutrient-dense food, some treats, lots of packaged convenience foods (Gardein, Yves, the occasional bag of protein chips) try to hit protein and iron and don't sweat the rest of it.

    Tastes pretty good, actually. Vegetable-herb. They also do a sweet potato-roasted cashew puree.

    @Ruatine Yes! Lemon meringue is my youngest son's absolute favorite :smiley: I like it because lemon curd is dead easy to make.

    The appetizers look divine :yum: I'm quoting the pic for the drool factor!

    What is the base for the quiche if not eggs? Tofu? Did I miss it somewhere upthread?

    They do use tofu for at least one variety. I'm not sure if it's for all of them.

    Burger tonight. Small bun, 2 slices of cheese, Kirkland beef patty, 2 slices bacon, mushroom, tomato and buffalo sauce. Made a hell of a mess but was real tasty.

    Having coconut rice with edamame and cashews for lunch. 615 calories and worth every last one...

    Pre keto one of my favorite foods was rice, edimame, soy sauce, and avocado, and those little seaweed sprinkles/rice flavoring you can get at Asian markets. Like deconstructed sushi

    I spot some green bean casserole @Illy_Mooncat , which I love. Looks like a fantastic plate overall.
