Fried chicken biscuit with pimento cheese and bacon for breakfast... I have about 500 calories left to work with for today but sometimes you gotta live a little
@LazyBlondeChef I love Jovial pasta; it’s pretty much my favorite gluten free dried noodle. Just about any of the rice based ones are a safe bet!4 -
Made seafood stew today! 🦞
A blend of vegetables, cod, octopus, and a gathering of shellfish.. 👩🏼🍳

Cod cooked in EVOO and grilled zucchini.

Caesar salad followed by linguine carbonara.

Catching up on some things I've made recently- vanilla cake with a bourbon marshmallow buttercream frosting.

Cassoulet. A ~6 hour project, worth it to make once, but this was probably something that I'd try making once and just order in restaurants.

@missperfectpitch - those must have been so much fun to make! Nice work👩🍳0

@MinTheKitCat and @PAPYRUS3 - Thanks! Yes, one side benefit of working from home indefinitely is that there's a lot of free time for some complicated/lengthy baking and cooking projects these days!1

I guess you must have made your own duck confit as well as stewing the cassoulet if was a 6 hour project. I made it only once too, but at least it was huge batch that we put 6 portions in the freezer. For anyone wanting to tackle making the duck confit, use the sous vide wand if you have one and a big ziplock bag. Less mess and doesn't require as much duck fat.

Actually no, I just used a fresh duck leg using Serious Eats' recipe for cassoulet - https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/10/traditional-french-cassoulet-recipe.html. The total cooking time in the oven is about 5-6 hours to develop a nice crust. Mine didn't yield a huge amount, but I didn't mind as each serving ended up around 700 calories!3 -
Tagliata di manzo con rucoloa e pomodoro, followed by linguine with pesto Trapanese. Probably served in the wrong order as the tagliata is usually considered a secondo. but I like starting with salad.

Crockpot pork adobo stew. Tastes like pork lo mein. Super tasty and only 254 calories per serving.

I cooked two plant-based meals for lunch and dinner:
-Veggie Chilli
-Veggie Sandwich with microwaved sweet potato fries; I ‘battered the fries with oregano, basil, paprika, and parmesan romano cheese
I’ve been able to say within my calorie goal as well eating more plant-based meals.

@senalay788 what are those tubes with your kale? The dish looks good.1

Lunch: leftover mashed potatoes, prosciutto and tangerines .... very simple
Dinner: Baked chicken legs and cubed butternut squash in a coating of toasted sesame oil, freshly grated ginger and lime Kaffir powder. Ugh ... chicken doesn't look very appetizing with no browning but it tasted good. Slaw mix sautéed in toasted sesame oil and added ginger. Squash was nicely caramelized.

Wow your meals are definitely delicious, but I can't imagine eating such small portions and feeling satisfied!! I would eat both of those plates plus another for dinner, lol.3
