    The question is can the bread and feta quantities (and wine) that go with this be controlled, or not????🤔

    near east inspired aromatic meatballs simmered in sun drenched slow cooked tomato based Alfredo sauce and nestled on a bed of al-dente riced veggies!

    (nuked a 550g bag of cauli, with the big half (400g) of a jar of classico, and shoved in it the remaining six (175g) frozen pre-cooked meatballs I had sitting open in the freezer--mushed it all up and shoveled till full for just about 700Cal !!!! :lol::wink: )

    I have one sort of cookies needing baked, and I will do those tomorrow morning. Then we'll go to the reunion and get rid of all the cookies. (grin) I know better than to leave those around, as I WILL eat them.

    The meat that I need to cut still needs to be cut, but I will pull that out of the freezer tomorrow and thaw it so I can work on it on Monday.

    Another attack on the freezer today. Had a green bean stew serving stowed away, and decided to also open an oregano anchovie can. They go really well together!

    Those plates are just beautiful Dante. You could do a cookbook! Perhaps you’re the restaurant business?
    Sadly some of your ingredients are not available here. No canned sardines with oregano, no rusk. I will be looking closer at our tiny middle eastern grocery store but they don’t do a lot of Greek food.

    Much as I would have liked some tasty Greek🦈 anchovies today - no such luck.

    Lunch is pork tenderloin made in the air fryer, potato and zucchini with tomatoes. And 🥗. Not sure of dinner. Might be a cereal and yogurt day again.

    Lunch was panera 10 Vegetable Soup, into which I dumped a side of the chicken they use on salads. I was at work and needed low-cal but filling choices.

    Dinner was a big ole plate of cheesy eggs (3 eggs, 3 whites, slice and a half of American cheese) and 5 slices of thick center cut bacon, plus an iced coffee with zero sugar Caramel Macchiatto creamer.

    Breakfast was 2 big cups of coffee with a splash of half and half each.

    Breakfast was two orange spice muffins, at 6 am and 9 am, with a large mug of black tea.

    Lunch will be a leftover hamburger on a bun with a small bag of chips.

    Dinner will be orange pork with rice. They are also having mixed Asian vegetables, but as the mix includes broccoli, I cannot partake.

    And now I want some cheesy eggs for dinner too! Or maybe some of Alexandra’s orange chicken.

    Left to my own devices I’ll probably haul some freezer burned tidbit out and nuke it. I think there are some 200 calorie Healthy Choice thingies in the freezer. I’ll add plenty of veggies and a salad 🥗. It’ll do the job but won’t inspire my soul!

    cheesy eggs sound interesting... probably better than 90 Cal skyr ice cream bars. But... fruit is good right? (plum-cots, cherries, strawberries). And skyr bars have protein, right? So.... all bases are covered?!?!?! :hushed: Dog is broken. front paw is in the air. 999 degree weather ain't helping. sunny is good though!

    Nuthin wrong with ice cream when it’s 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Skyr bars have some redeeming nutrients. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to get by.

    You so much do. I'm a bundle of nerves because of the dog and the change in things the dog will cause and am trying to not eat too much because of it, but we'll see what I can do. Good change and chosen change is, after all, still change and it makes me anxious.

    The waiting is the worst Alexandra - when Sergeant Pickles arrives you'll soon establish a new routine. Not long now...
