    Copycat childhood dinner. Copycat KFC from the Chicago Tribune recipe cooked in the air fryer. Copycat KFC slaw. Copycat Kraft Dinner made with dehydrated cheddar I bought online. Green salad with ranch was not from my childhood.

    My egg yolk fell in the rutabega. Typical Monday. ☺️

    Breakfast: Egg over roasted root vegetables with rosemary, thyme, dulse and sea salt. (Rutabega, parsnips, turnips & a hidden shallot somewhere...)

    SE Asian food. Chicken satay with satay sauce with sticky rice. I followed a recipe for Thai pomelo salad, although pomelos are not in season for another week or two. I substituted a grapefruit stretched with grated carrot.

    Slow cooker butterkin and lentil soup, 6 portions. I have soup for days, and it tastes great.

    A squash. Aparently a mix between butternut and regular pumpkin.

    A colleague came to dinner. Bagna cauda to start, duck prosciutto carbonara as a main (guest is a non practicing Muslim) and bitterkoekes (=dutch amaretti) dipped in Amaretto made with the leftover egg whites from the carbonara. This is a three course Italian meal where total cooking time is 45 minutes plus washing and chopping up veggies for the crudites for dipping into bagna cauda.

    I don't know if this is the right place to post, but I bought myself a Cuisinart indoor grill a year ago. It lets you pick your category (chicken, pork, meat, fish) and it alerts you to the doneness. I use it almost every day. It was a bit pricey, but when I break down the cost per use, it was really cheap. And the non-stick panels go into the dishwasher. It beats getting the grill up all the time.
    That sounds like something I should look into.

    I love breakfast, & I often make it my biggest meal of the day. Yesterday was Saturday, so we did it up in grand style. I had turkey sausage links, softly scrambled eggs, Velveeta cheese, shredded mild cheddar cheese, & apple slices. I ate more yesterday than I usually but with my walk, I stayed under my calorie limit. By 2 calories!

    Last night, I made a baked coconut-crusted cod fillet over salad. I used almond flour, gluten-free panko, and unsweetened coconut to lightly coat it. It was superb. (I also added a little cayenne pepper to give it a kick.)

    I spent some time meal prepping yesterday. Made a bean chilli on the stove, and a chickpea curry in the slow cooker. Ended up with 8 portions of each. Would show a pic of my little stack of food filled boxes, but, as the app says, "this image failed to upload".

    Yesterday I made Cola Chicken served over rice, and steamed carrots with the addition of a sweet red wine.

    Cola Chicken you ask? Very easy recipe...

    4 chicken breasts
    1 cup of salsa (0r catsup)
    12 oz. of diet cola

    Place chicken in non-stick pot. pour salsa and cola over the chicken. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat.
    Cook for 30-45 minutes. Uncover and turn heat up and cook until sauce thickens and adheres to chicken.
