redroseLast week, the power flipped out sometime during the day, so the crockpot of cabbage, chicken, and sausage did not cook. It was later cooked for longer than the recipe called for, and then chilled and refrigerated. It will be some of this week's meals.
Mexican Lentil Soup: Learning to Cook with Marion Cunningham
Sun: Allen's
Mon: romantical stuff
Tue: Cabbage &c.
Wed: lentil soup
Thu: leftovers
Fri: M&R
Sat: leftovers
The cabbage recipe, what we tasted of it, seemed ok. I am dubious about using canned cream of mushroom soup.
Emergency meal: pasta with olive oil, onions, and olives from Arthur Schwartz' What to Cook When You Think There's Nothing in the House to Eat (which book wins on title alone). It was pretty good, though I think I am going to double the onion and caramelize it next time.
The lentil soup was thin on its own, and much better with rice under it and cheddar grated over it.
