Well, to be perfectly honest, I hate them too When I made it, I just left out the mushrooms.

Gonna be making some BBQ Chicken Egg Rolls. Cross your fingers they turn out ok, I don't really have a recipe, just winging it.

I also need to figure out what to make to go along with the last servings of Happy Union. Maybe egg noodles? Buckwheat noodles? Wish I had udon noodles

last night was lightly breaded chicken breasts with mushroom, zucchini, onion sauteed then added to a Tikka Masala. Steamed broccoli on the side. Kids loved it.

Needed a bit more salt.

Tonight I am trying a technique I found to stretch ground beef - it uses chopped mushrooms as a filler. I am not sure about it, but the poster said they couldn't even tell there were mushrooms and her husband hates them, too. I am going to use it to make taco "meat" and make some quesadillas for dinner.

Going to be trying a new seasoning mix for tacos. Man - it's a twofer tuesday

PS - BBQ Chicken Egg Rolls were not bad

I was just looking for a little snack so went to the corner store. They had some dry roasted edamame (soy beans.) I like steamed edamame, so crunchy salty edamame sounded like it might be pretty good. It also has less fat and more protein than peanuts, which I was also considering getting.

Turns out there's a reason why dry roasted edamame hasn't caught on.

Tonight...no meal. Just grazing. Might have some ham on on a mini baguette.

Lastnight though I ate a good meal. Really healthy and tasty: tuna steak fried in a little oil, new potatoes and steamed baby leaf spinach.

We had spinach pie, lemon pepper chicken and left over rice from the moroccan meal we had the night before. It all went quite nicely together.

I forgot to mention that we also had a chocolate and raspberry triffle for desert. I made the cake a few days ago and no one ate it, so it got turned into triffle and poof! All gone!

Smoking is, as far as I am concerned, the entire point of being an adult. Many people find smoking objectionable. I myself find many
-even more-- things objectionable. I do not like aftershave lotion, adults who roller-skate, children who speak French, or nayone who is unduly tan. I do not, however, go around enacting legislation and putting up signs.
