And more brownies...

I have some chicken stock, snap peas in the fridge, so maybe I'll go that route - shrimp, scallion soup, stir fried peas with rice.

My guest is (still) here and he will be doing the ribs.

Hopefully, I will feel like eating by then.

but forgot to turn on the crockpot. So I guess I'll be having that tomorrow. But thinking tuna salad and found this one yesterday, so might try a version for 1.

Eggplant is stuffed with roasted garlic, grated zucchini, sun dried tomatoes, lots of cubed mozzarella, olive oil drizzle, some Italian herbs.

Looking forward to it.

Also today making whole wheat banana bread, coconut homestead cookies and some applesauce from frozen farmers market apples.

Smells pretty good 'round here! Beautiful day today.

i just got home from work, had a long day today. payday isn't until monday, so i'm going to have to make due with what we've got. there's plenty of beans, tomato products and rice in the cupboards, i've got a couple onions and a bell pepper, so it's more a matter of figuring out what is going to take the least amount of effort.

what's for eating at your place?

so here's what i came up with: i'm going to broil some of the pre-prepared polenta i've got in the cupboard and top it with a chunky sauce of fresh cherry tomatoes, canned diced tomatoes and onion. i've got a wee bit left of my last wedge of parmesean, maybe a bit of lemon.

I never made one of these so I did some research. After loosely following some recipes I found online it turned out pretty well.
