Tonight I made a spinach lasagna - layer 1 (ground beef, sauteed (coconut oil) onions & mushrooms & black olives, tomato puree, spices), layer 2 (spinach & cream cheese & pepper), layer 3 (mozzarella & parmesan cheeses)

The whole family loved it. Even the kids (which is weird, honestly). Big win on my part, lol!

For dessert, sugar free jello with homemade whipped cream. I thought the kids were going to kill each other to lick off the beaters from the whipped cream - they've never had it freshly made before and were just intoxicated by it.

ooh, that lasagna sounds so good!!

Breakfast - leftover prime rib with scrambled eggs & cheese.
Lunch - leftover pork chop, with green beans & asian slaw

Asian slaw - same as what you see with the crunchy ramen noodles, I just leave those out!
1 bag cole slaw mix (I actually used broccoli slaw mix this time)

Then I made my own dressing...measurements are approx., I mix to taste and don't really remember! haha
3 T. rice wine vinegar
3 T. olive oil
1/2 - 1 T. sesame oil (depends on how strong you want)
1 T. soy sauce (I used tamari, it's GF)
garlic powder, onion powder, S&P to taste
maybe 1 t. ground ginger - I've never added this before, but I like it!
about 1/2 t. ground mustard/mustard powder - be careful, it's spicy. this is what is used to make hot mustard in Chinese restaurants!

I wisk the dressing ingredients together, then add the cole slaw mix. Let marinade for at least an hour. I made it a few days ago, so it's even better now! It's also good if you add slivered almonds or sunflower seeds, if you want that "crunch" like the noodles, but without the carbs.

B- omlette- sausage, egg, and cheese
L- leftover Parm talapia
S- 2oz. Beef jerky
D- cajun turkey breast tenderloin and cabbage.

wow everything sounds great.

I roasting a chicken, steamed broccoli & cauliflower served with homemade cheese sauce. Rice is added for hubby.

Todays lunch: Tuna patties

Great for when you are fed up with plain old tuna salad!!

Recipe: (Makes 4 patties/tuna burgers)

2 tins of tuna, drained
1 egg
2 tbsp full fat cream cheese
salt & pepper

Add herbs and/or spices to your tuna patties if you wish. This works well with the following:

-Asian style- with chopped fresh chilli, coriander (cilantro) and squeezed with lime juice.
-Dill & lemon zest
- chopped black olives and parmesan


Chill mix in the fridge for at least 30 mins.

Heat a non stick pan with a little oil of choice. Spoon in quarter of the tuna mix and shape into a patty. Crisp one side for about 4 mins and delicately flip over and repeat.

Serve dressed with lemon juice & salad.

What a great way to have tuna! Thanks for the idea!!

B-Omlette (Feta, onion, peppers) with' hazelnut coffee
L-Tuna blended with spicy herring pate & sour cream served on cucumber slices

I think as it's very hot and humid tonight I'll use last night's pork roast to add to a salad of avocado, shallots, capsicum,and whatever else I can find in the fridge.

Breakfast
