i think that it was green peppers, onions, black olives, and mushrooms.

My daughter had Artichoke, sun dried tomatoes, and mushrooms on hers today......I have been battling the remainder of the flu and a gout flare up; so no such goodies for me today.

That's a rough combination. I hope that you are on the mend soon.

veggie burger with Swiss cheese
lower salt vegetable noodle soup.

soup was ok. i will say that if i ever have to go low salt, that is going to be difficult for me.

Light life vegetarian ham and Swiss cheese sandwich
Baked cheetos.

Homemade baba ganoush (Arabic eggplant dip), toasted naan bread, sliced tomatoes and black olives. Too much work and tastes pretty much like hummus, so I'll stick with the latter.

yesterday was leftover home made vegetarian sausage and tomato pizza. i'm out of crusts now, but i think that my wife and i are going to try to make our own. we're both pretty decent cooks, so it seems doable.

chickenless dumplings and veggies. it had chicken broth in it, though, so not exactly vegetarian.

 

[PoS]

Slices of pistachio mortadella, butter toasted Turkish pide bread, goat cheese, romaine lettuce, olive and tomato salad with my homemade balsamic reduction vinaigrette.

I usually steer clear of supermarket steak. It's usually overpriced and the bare minimum amount of marble to get someone to sign off on it as choice. Imagine my surprise when, after stopping my PO Box, I swing into Shaws and see a pile of well-marbled Porterhouses for $5.77/lb, and a pile of strip steaks I'd grade a hair or two below prime for $7.99/lb.

I ended up buying half of what they had (the rest was the usual: virtually no marbling, with big globs of fat instead of lots of little bands throughout). I will be having a lot of steak in coming weeks. Had to freeze a bunch, obviously.




Lunch: ~1lb strip steak, very well marbled. Medium rare to rare.
