I'm roasting some chicken thighs ( making extra for another night). I'm really not in a cooking mood so I'll probably make some stove top stuffing and nuke some broccoli
 
Warm today, not many of those days for a while. I decided to smoke some dogs with pecan wood. Picked up potato salad from the good deli in the big town last night, yummy.

Steamed shrimp with Old Bay. Really good salad. Triscuits with rosemary seasoning.

I love steamed shrimp... however, I started buying cooked 24oz bags of frozen medium shrimp with the shell on. It's pricey.. $22. but I can get 6 or 7 meals, 8 or 10 shrimp at a time served as a shrimp cocktail. They thaw in about 20 minutes in water. Add some fries of veggies... I can still get out with less than $3 a meal.

What's this with triscuits and rosemary... please explain this to me. :)
 
@Peanut Triscuit makes a flavor with rosemary. They are still as salty as ever but tasty! We got 2 lbs. per bag of raw shrimp for $10, bought two bags. Next time maybe we'll have shrimp lime cilantro or shrimp scampi.
I think we fix spaghetti once a week. That was dinner tonight, along with more good salad. Most of the family hates spaghetti but I don't make them eat it. lol They hungry? They eat. I prefer angel hair pasta. I tried making my own sauce a few times, #FAIL, and always go with bottled. No, I'm not Italian!
 
Flat iron steak smothered in gravy, sliced mushrooms
Fresh broccoli steamed(will take stem make french fries later)
home made mash potatoes with unsalted butter, fresh cracked black pepper
unsweet tea or coffee
1/2 cup of frozen blueberries served over sugar free ice cream
Will make enough for several meals.
Remind me later not to buy 5 pound flat iron steak that thing is huge for one person.
But made stir fry with it, prepped enough got 5 more meals in freezer for later.
Got 5 more meals of PHO at least my version of PHO. soup in freezer.
Will have enough to have 5 meals of smothered steak home made version of tv dinners for freezer.

After smothered steaks meals go in freezer, will have enough for 6 ounce steak, baked potato, corn on cob(fresh from friends garden),small salad also from friends garden.
 
Made vegetable soup with the leftovers from Pork Roast for lunch.
Will have enough for supper too.
