Wife is having supper at daughters so I am left to fend for myself. Home grown pork sausage fried in olive oil. Then some fresh sliced cukes fried in the sausage grease. Generous helping of cottage cheese. Wash it all down with a Grain Belt. Handful of Bing cherries for desert. I could eat more but I better not.
 
We had sausage, too. Italian from a local meat shop along with zucchini, mushrooms, onion, and green and red peppers all cut up and brushed with olive oil and grilled with the sausage.
 
A light meal tonight with tomato soup and toast. I made macaroni salad early in the week so that has been filling the gaps so my waist line has not shrunk. Also, I made chili which I still have some left. I need to get grilling some chicken and pork chops.
 
Microwave baked potato, fried sliced spam. Wife is at 4-H fair this week. Meals getting pretty sketchy around here.
 
We bought one of those whole roasted chickens at Costco the other night.
Had a couple of meals off of it.
So tonight I put the carcass into the pressure cooker and cooked it down good.
Then I added potatoes, rutabaga, carrots and cabbage and cooked it again till they were done.
Kind of a cross between chicken soup and a boiled dinner.
Lots of leftovers now for lunches or another dinner.
Fairly low calorie too which is good because there's some chocolate ice cream in the freezer..
 
Everyones meal sounds good. We are having this for supper. When we cook it we eat all we want then devide and freeze the rest in meal size containers.

UNSTUFFED CABBAGE ROLLS

Ingredients:
1 1/2 to 2 pounds lean ground beef
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced (I use garlic power to taste, 1 tsp approx.)
1 small cabbage, chopped
2 cans (14.5 ounces each) low sodium diced tomatoes
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon Tony?s ( to taste)

Directions:
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and onion and cook, stirring, until ground beef is no longer pink and onion is tender.
Add the garlic and continue cooking for 1 minute.

Add the chopped cabbage, tomatoes, tomato sauce, water, pepper, Tony?s, and salt. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, or until cabbage is tender.
Yield: Serves 6 to 8.
 
Daughter stayed over last night, after she and her 2 brothers were our hay crew and got all the hay in the barn last night. They're just the best. So before she left tonight, we went to THE BEST MEXICAN RESTAURANT IN THE WORLD, Plaza Jalisco, and ate like kings. Chile Rellenos, Pork Fajitas, and other stuff. Plenty of leftovers for a couple more meals. I'm a lucky man.
 
My wife works 3 to 11 so I am often hunting for supper.
It does help that both of my grown daughters live within a couple hundred feet of my house.
I get what's left after they feed their families.
Got some BBQ brisket from one of them and mashed potatoes from the other tonight.
I warmed up a can of green peas to go with it.
 
This was mine for today. Hot dogs alone are the perfect all American food, and 6 months ago I would have said the best it gets. But then these showed up. They just made the perfect food more perfecter!
