Reading through this thread has me feeling like a kitchen slacker LOL!
Last night I heated up a leftover grilled chicken breast and I topped it with sauteed mushrooms and a little pepper jack cheese.
My cooking skills are limited, usually involves the BBQ grill for that night's meat and the microwave to steam some veggies.2 -

It's my turn to cook tonight. Trying out adaptations of my standard super easy dinner party menu for future guests with restricted diets. Menu is bagna cauda, carbonara, and almond macaroons dipped in amaretto made with the leftover egg whites from carbonara.
In a couple of weeks having someone over who has recently been diagnosed as FODMAPS intolerant, so testing out whether bagna cauda made with chive instead of garlic is any good. On easter weekend having someone over who doesn't eat pork so testing out carbonara made with home cured duck prosciutto instead of pancetta.1 -

I had a real craving for my mom's macaroni salad, of course the version with tons of mayo. I realized that if I ban foods or don't allow myself to have what I want in some version, I crash and burn so terribly. So I made a version that came in at about 199calories per portion with the recipe here:
2 cups of cooked elbow macaroni
1 can of solid white tuna (the smaller cans, 3 servings at 70 calories per serving)
a few tablespoons of chopped onions
5 tablespoons of Hellman's light mayo
Salt, pepper, garlic/onion powder to taste
I weighed that and split it into 4 equal portions. One of the tricks to not overusing mayo for this type of application is to soak your noodles in water after cooking and never mixing in mayo when it is warm. It will just suck it up and dry out and you will want to add more and more. Replacing mayo with light mayo here is pretty big, as one tablespoon has 35 calories vs the 90 in regular mayo. You really don't taste much of a difference in it.
Happy Eating2 -
I'm the weekend cook. Pork loin is marinating for this tonight. Planning to grill in the air fryer.

We don't have rice noodles in the house so will serve with rice. I have salad dressing leftover from when I last made this so will just use it on the accompanying cucumber and herb salad.

I threw together a mock-up of a shrimp boil on Thursday. Cooked Beyond Sausage and VeriSoy's meatless "shrimp" with yukon gold potatoes and put it on a bed of garlic rice.1

The Vietnamese pork loin recipe was a hit.

Home made scalloped potatoes and thought I had set the kitchen on fire. Some butter from the top splashed onto the top element of the oven and produced a huge amount of smoke . It looks good but I really don't feel like eating it.2

I’m trying Indian curry for the first time. Made a curry base mix and used it in chicken dopiaza!
