Pork butt (shoulder) was on sale this week for $1.87/lb. So we thought we would buy a small one and try making carnitas in the Instant Pot for some dinners and lunches. We followed this recipe from the Well plated … Continue reading

Grilled hamburger with chopped salad. 11/26/22
John grilled the burgers to perfection and I assembled a pre-packaged salad. No inventiveness in this meal but if I am going to have a red meat dinner, I would always choose a hamburger over a fancy steak.

Tofu bowl. 10/20/22
The avocado finally ripened and we dined on my favorite bowl of our three, the marinated tofu bowl. This is another almost no-cook dinner. I heated up my cauliflower rice in the microwave but if you prefer actual rice you … Continue reading

Greek salad with hummus and pita. 10/19/22
Our recalcitrant avocado has decided to wait another day to ripen. Apparently the apple in the bag that is supposed to make it ripen faster has made a pact with the avocado to lengthen its time on earth. Who thought … Continue reading

Buffalo chicken wings and salad. 10/17/22
When I suggested we have chicken on Monday John voted for these chicken wings. This is the ultimate easy dinner and probably one of the more expensive ways to eat chicken wings without getting them at a restaurant or as … Continue reading
Grilled burgers and bean salad. 10/15/22
Even though I had to eat practically nothing all day to fit this hamburger into my diet regimen, it was worth it. Every once in a while I just crave eating like a normal (American) person. You know, a hamburger … Continue reading
