I think we've eaten leftovers for four days and I'm happy to say there are no leftovers in the fridge. There are dishes in the freezer but I can get back to cooking and loving on my new little slow cooker. I had hoped to use the slow cooker today but this was a very busy morning and I never got around to getting the food in the pot.
We're supposed to have a pretty good frost tonight so I spent more than an hour this morning picking peppers, tomatoes and okra. Then I cut enough basil to fill all four trays in the freeze dryer and get those dried. There are apples in the freeze dryer and they probably won't finish til in the morning. The Purple Lady Bok Choy and the Tatsoi are not frost hardy so I covered those. For the next three weeks we may only have one more frost so I would love to keep those things alive a bit longer.
I had physical therapy at 11. At 12 I had a grocery order at Walmart to pick up. By the time I got home, about 12:30, I was starving, realized I had not even taken time to eat breakfast so I scrapped the plans for making a Chicken Cobbler and made Chicken Hot Pockets.
Not our healthiest meal this week but I was very close to saying "Let's go eat Mexican!"
I have been trying to make all of our salad dressings. This is the Caesar Dressing recipe I used for these and it was very good and very easy to make.
Vince seriously loved these "Hot Pockets". They were so easy to make us some of the rotisserie chicken and the purchased pizza crust (rolled up in a box like the pie crusts). A homemade pizza crust would work too (probably better) but in a pinch, the purchased crust was close to perfect.
Tomorrow we're having grilled tuna and I'm trying this Green Bean Casserole Tart that I may want to fix for Thanksgiving.
