    Oh, I've found my MFP home! Thank you everyone for sharing... YUM.

    Here's my dinner tonight - veggie chili (on bed of spinach):

    I have discovered that just like shopping, I should not go to this discussion thread when hungry. The pictures of food look amazing and I get suddenly very hungry. Mom always said "the eyes feast first" and she was right about that, and so many other things.

    Not sure whether it's a Jamaican saying but I grew up hearing something similar: "your eyes are bigger than your stomach"

    And, yes, this thread is notorious 😋

    My Dad said this all the time.

    👀 (Looks up egg white chip recipes...)

    Welp, looks like I'll be busy experimenting the rest of the year. How did you get the cute holes in yours @PAPYRUS3?

    Pan fried halibut served on tinned butter beans warmed up with a handful of frozen broad beans in shellfish bisque I pulled out of the freezer. The last of the coriander oil lying around the fridge and some freshly made gremolata. Side of tomato salad with kalamata olives.

    @o0Firekeeper0o did you make the gluten-free egg noodles or buy? If bought, what brand? I'm experimenting with various gluten free pastas/pasta substitutes but have yet to find anything I find truly satisfying for meat sauce outside of zoodles.

    Lunch: prosciutto, Simple Truth lemon parm salad, leftover asparagus sauteed in olive oil, Castelvetrano olives, roma tomato w/splash of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I'm a little addicted to the kit salads for variety though I try to only get the organic ones because the dressings are less likely to be full of junk.

    Dinner: oven baked chicken legs, broccoli sauteed in olive oil, leftover polenta w/smoky blue cheese and 1/2 avocado. The chicken legs were a "shake & bake" with a mixture of simple truth gluten free flour mix, five-spice powder, kaffir lime powder and coriander. I like to use a lot because I always remove the skin but the spices still get into the meat. I change up the spices every time. Curry powder alone works well.

    @LazyBlondeChef They were from Trader Joe’s! In the same refrigerated section as their other fresh pastas. They were pretty good; a bit fragile but I think that’s to be expected. Next time I’m going to try dried gf pasta because I think the water will be starchier and the noodles will be more sturdy
