Nope, not at all. And quite often it tastes better after it chills and gets warmed up again. Goulash is a good example, always better second time around.

Baking some crab cakes, roasting some potatoes and heating up some beets
I'm still having white bean chili with kale but making beef burritos with beef strips I pressure canned awhile back for DH. Now that I actually know what I have in the pantry after cleaning and re-organizing. LOL

Greek chicken, potatoes, cauliflower with cheese sauce, fruit salad, and some bread rolls.
Vegetable soup and meatball subs
Hamburgers with onions, pickles and cheese, condiments at the eaters disgression.
Home canned beef strips with refried beans and salsa on low carb flour tortillas.
We had chicken fried steaks. That's not entirely exciting but today I've also made homemade ice cream and a batch of mocha tartlets- a chocolate cookie layer, mascarpone layer & topped with mocha ganache. Yum.

Tonight I made a batch of wings, had baked beans and chips then had a piece of pie for dessert.
Finally pie. Hope it was baked in your new oven
@LadyLocust Nope, didn't bake a pie. Depending on dad's health it might be weeks before I have the time or the energy. These days it's simple food like wings, chili, roast beast sandwiches, oh, I have hotdogs this week also. For sides lots of salads, baked beans and potato salad from the deli... Lots of fruits for desserts and pie from the bakery... Simple and quick is on the menu!
Breakfast is more involved... besides bacon and eggs I love home fries, sometimes pancakes, takes a little extra time to do them right and clean up afterwards.

Have you ever done the crockpot breakfast? Throw sausage (or bacon etc) spuds, eggs, cheese in a crockpot on low before you go to bed. Breakfast is ready when you wake up.
Nope... between going to bed and waking up my schedule might change completely. I bought a 3Q instapot before christmas to use as a slow cooker. The only thing I've used it for is boiled eggs... it does make a perfect boiled egg!
For the last few days the hospital was able to provide sitters for dad giving my niece and I a much needed break. Looks like they won't be able to do so on a regular basis for the foreseeable future.
So, chili it on the menu for the next few days. It tastes better after time in the fridge and is quick to warm up. I tried something different last time and carried it further this time. I saw Alton Brown making chili on his show. He used chunky salsa instead of canned tomatoes. I really liked my chili that way. This time instead of medium heat salsa etc. I used mild salsa and diced 3 large jalapeno peppers from the produce section at the store. It already tastes good. I'll let it simmer for about 50 minutes to meld the flavors... can't wait.

It's taco Tuesday
Spaghetti and sauce with some bread and butter slices.
Made a stew with butternut squash, black beans, quinoa, collard greens, broccoli (all vegies from garden) plus garlic, onion and bell peppers. Added chicken broth, coconut milk, curry and plenty of Slap yo momma spice. Very good! And spicy!
I made slippery chicken potpie ( used leftover chicken thighs I did yesterday)

I like Mo's better than mine After I rounded up the chickens and shook the rain off my hat, I made baked beans with smoked sausage in it. Little salad on the side. Guess what for lunch tomorrow too
