We have our normal large meat cooks going on for the hubby. If I recall, lamb leg was about the same price as beef chuck roast at costco last week, so that's what we had!

Lately though, I've been going through an egg phase. It used to be the hubby, he would eat amazing amounts of eggs when he first started his dieting. Our current egg producer is also our dairy. She has a favorite variety of chickens, I forget what they are, but they lay a very consistent sized, shaped, and colored egg. Our previous egg ladies have had more mixed flocks for the variety of eggs in colors and sizes.

Anyway, one of the egg things I've discovered over the years is poaching is not hard. I've started hard poaching eggs for potato salad and stuff -- why peel afterwards when you are going to chop them up anyway? I just load up my big deep pan and plop in as many eggs as will fit.

I'm posting this at breakfast time and am going to allow myself some carbs and make a fried egg sandwich on a toasted bun

For dinner, I make a variation of shakshuka --- simply a can of diced tomatoes with some garlic and spices, heat it up, crack in the eggs, and dinner is almost ready!
