OK, so I drove 175+ miles today, saw 4 houses & took countless pics of properties over 3 counties!
So I come home, check messages, return calls & then start to try to come up with dinner ideas.
I had some leftover pork tenderloin & that was about it.
I am trying to low carb, but decided to add some good grains
So I get this idea to kinda do a barley thingee with sauteed celery, onions,sage, broth, mushrooms & add the pork & barley.
But I didn't have mushrooms
It tasted edible, but NOOO I had to add more Cr&*p
SO here comes the leftover kale & pinto beans
& then a huge tomato, & then some sweet mustard from a friends farm..
OK....YIKES... THis is what we have now!
Celery, onions, sage, barley, pork, kale, beans, tomatoes & sweet mustard????
BLECHHH!
Hubby ate it & said his famous line.. "I've had worse"
I told him to be sure to bring some extra Kleenex or TP on the 1 1/2 hr drive into work tomorrow.
Man I need to start planning my menus! |

I must teach Ole Ron the phrase, "I've had worse". He don't eat anything that isn't just to his likeing. Yes, I do the same thing trying to use left overs. Bad part about that is when I come up with something that he really likes, I can't duplicate it. Tonight we are having T-bone steak stew. That was one that I did using left over steak and baked potato. We like it almost as much as the steak the first night.

Yes, he's a good man. And a smart man. And a real diplomat, too! LOL!

Oh Lisa, that's hysterical! You and Jus! He does the same thing, even adding when it's already seasoned perfectly! Personally, I like that you were trying to make it more interesting, and you know, he ate it, right? What a good man!!!!

Oh Lisa, I have done this many of times! My brother is a chef and he makes it look easy, you know making fancy and flavorful dishes. It is however not so easy. I just stick to ordinary spices and foods now, as my son says "mom I like it when you home cook our food the best" (he's 5)

Ah Lisa..we have all been THERE I bet. When you are feeling creative in the kitchen, sometimes it is hard to stop adding stuff.
