What's for dinner, LilBit style.

A bit tired tonight. Gave LilBit a Benadryl last eve cuz she is stuffed up with all the pollen here. Long story short, she quit bouncing off walls at 5 am this morn. So I didn’t cook, I said let’s do pizza. Seems simple , Dominoes (I know) 1 chicken Alfredo bowl , 1 med pizza, 1 of their new tater tot bakes. 22 bucks I say, not bad for 2 nights of food.
I ate exactly 2 tater tots. LilBit devoured rest, who knew Benadryl makes you hungry also?
Signed,
Tired, hungry, and now a schooled,

Going to try and broil a steak, bake a potato and heat up some green beans. Wish me luck!

I had an air fryer, I just prefer cast iron cooking.
I posted this because I look forward to NJCher daily posts, gives me ideas on flavors and such. Didn’t want to hijack her thread.
But I’m still smiling at how much a lil 95 pound young woman just ate,
So I wanted to tell this story.

Good luck

I know it’s hard to take care of yourself when you are spending all your energy taking care of someone else.

What kind?
Our menu for Friday and Saturday is split pea and ham soup as it will be colder here again. From Christmas ham bone in freezer. We love us some soups!!

I’m having green chili with chicken and black beans, topped with tortillas and cheese. I’ve been skating* and need the heat!

*wobbling around using a training frame, but I had the park rink on top of the hill all to myself!

Sautéed diced onions, green peppers, celery and garlic. All the hot peppers, chili powder, Penzey’s spicy seasonings on hand, adobo and coriander tossed in, salt and black pepper and then leftover chicken and broth from boiling the bones, canned diced tomatoes ( not too much) and canned beans. Oh, and bay leaf, ‘cause soup needs bay leaf.

Simmered until you can’t wait.
