Polenta with meatballs and tomato sauce, vegetables. 12/30/22
In an effort to make room in the refrigerator we decided to have a leftover dinner rather than the fish we had intended. We will eat the fish tomorrow for lunch. This is an amalgam of the polenta we had … Continue reading

Getting all the vegetables done at the same time was the most difficult part of this dish. I started the eggplant first and put the sprouts and the tomato in the oven after 15 minutes. Then I cooked it for … Continue reading
Grilled lamb chops, polenta, broccoli. 12/28/22
Delicious meal tonight! John grilled these lamb chops to perfection. Each one is like a little porterhouse steak. We made a special trip to Costco for them. A lot of regular grocery stores don’t carry much lamb but we can … Continue reading

Chicken parm with pasta. 12/22/22
I made some spaghetti sauce for our “meatball bar” on Christmas Eve and used part of it in tonight’s dinner. This is really kind of a shortcut chicken parm as all I did was nestle some rotisserie chicken in part … Continue reading
