OK...we are all getting pretty tired of Asian food. I've used up most of the items that I bought at the 99 Ranch. Back to American cuisine. That was fun.

Just finished; roasted vegetables, Thursday fish, sour-dough bread. Oh....daughter brought home grown oranges. That's dessert.

Husband wants chicken wings again with baked potato and broccoli. He's on a low salt diet and I found this seasoning that he actually likes on chicken. He does not like Dash or other low salt seasoning mixes.

Onebyone, thanks for that seasoning tip. I'll have to look for that.

I like Old Bay, and being the cheapo that I am, I also like the seasoning that I get at the Dollar Tree. They've been out lately though. Apparently, I'm not the only one that likes it.

Tonight I'm making fresh mackerel. The son is just going to have to find something for himself to eat.

Haven't had any planned meals, we are doing some freezer clean out type things. Yesterday when we went grocery shopping there was a marked down corned beef that was worth buying. Hubby went bowling and I cooked it with half a carton of chicken stock I had left over.

Today we'll get a head of cabbage chunk it up fairly large but in pieces, and slice up a weird assortment of leftover chicken (and pork) sausages we have, along with half of a rotisserie chicken in the saved broth. Keto friendly but not low salt... although the chicken stock did start out as "lower" it wasn't after the corned beef.

I still miss carbs but cabbage has replaced noodles in a variety of ways. Raw and crispy, or cooked and somewhat sloppy..

Leftover rack of ribs. Lettuce salad. Creamed potatoes that are quick and easy. I bought a big paper bag of russet potatoes for 99 cents at our neighborhood grocery store so I need to use them up.

Back to Asian food...We had big noodle bowls with broth, seaweed, thin noodles, steamed dumplings, shrimp, veggies...yum. No need for dinner.

Temp dropped from 75 to 28 in one day. I made vegetable beef soup and cheese toast. Apple pie for dessert using only two ingredients, puff pastry and apple pie filling.

Realized we bought a pork loin from Costco the other day and it was in the downstairs fridge... out of sight and out of mind.

Will freeze one third, cut a little over a third into 1" thick chops to brine over night and cook on the pellet grill tomorrow. This will be the first time doing something "thin" on the smoker. Still low temp and about an hour+ for the chops.

For tonight, I cut the slightly less than a third into thin chops and pounded them out schnitzel style but no coating, just some Lawry's season salt and lots of pepper for the hubby. I'm not always up for the noise of the pounded but it felt sort of good today!

I had some leftover pork roast that hubby had cooked on the grill. I made it into enchiladas with homemade enchilada sauce. I can hardly wait for dinner!
