La Coliniere
(1,996 posts)Its really a terrific meatloaf recipe I modified to make plant based by substituting the ground beef/pork with mashed beans. For todays version I used both pinto and red kidney beans. I also made garlic mashed red potatoes and steamed Romano beans with sliced mushrooms. Comfort food night. Cheers!🥂

(6,601 posts)Used ground chicken instead of pork and coleslaw mix to make it easier. It was pretty good. Dessert will probably be some Lindt sea salt dark chocolate.

(1,117 posts)(Went out for dim sum.) So, I took a big pot of leftover rice and made rice pudding. Cinnamon and raisins, with the raisins soaked in rum for a while first. That'll hold us for the evening and probably make a few reappearances for the next few days.
