@hashbrown gee you're not sick of chicken, are ya? Hope you're recovering from the shock of the "new diet". I know it is not easy.
Had dinner early... salmon, mashed taters, cole slaw. Ate out. Compliments of offspring.

At least you do a cheat night, Hashbrown. Husband had me cook a diet meal to bring to cousin's last night, a ground turkey goulash thing, no salt, no high carb veggies. No one ate it of course, and he wondered why. Ha Ha. He ate it, and then ate everything else, so I don't know why I bothered. I always bring a side dish, but I'd rather bring something everyone likes. He should do a cheat night, too. Actually he did.

Chicken pot pie sounds good! I haven't had one in ages.

Aren't pantry challenges fun?

Have you ever made one in a crock pot?

 

[dademoss]

Whatever the DW wants. Taco meat and Jambalya are thawed, and we have fish and chicken in the freezer ready to cook.

 

[LadyLocust]

Have you ever made one in a crock pot?

Nope - I use a terra cotta loaf pan. When I get home, I'll remove the tinfoil and brown up the top for a couple min. Yum.

Posole made with red chiles daughter's boyfriend made this week. Daughter and her boy friend do some excellent cooking and always offer me something to take home when I go there. They are in the make a big pot and freeze meals mode, like I am. The freezer/microwave/dishwasher containers I bought are getting a good workout by all of us, including people who are getting a meal to go. We can rotate meals, have a meal ready when we need something to eat in the freezer, save a meal for someone, package up a meal to go for someone.

I use those for my freezer meals quite a bit.
I also use smaller ones too.
But I'm pretty sure I didn't buy them on Amazon.
Thinking I got them Black Friday at Wal*Mart for $4 each set got 3 sets of 40.

 

[MoBookworm1957]

Today we made a batch of beef pot pies and put them in the freezer, we had the leftover filling for supper.

Over rice or noodles???

No dinner tonight. I'll be on a plane from Houston to Des Moines. I board at 7:50 and land at 10:39 and ive had my fill of airport food for today so im not eating any more. There aren't any grocery stores open past 11pm since covid started so I can't stop and buy groceries on thebway home. So, if I have enough energy to eat when I get home, it'll probably be canned soup...
