Baked potatoes, topped with steramed broccoli and a cheese sauce that tastes like fondue - it's a white sauce with all the cheese stubs from NYE: fontina, emmenthaler, jarlsberg, and havarti
Mushrooms simmered in red wine
Sauteed baby spinach with garlic
Carrot souffle from the gourmet store
Yummy, not too rich or decadent, but delicious!
For dessert - strawberries dipped in sour cream with brown sugar
Here, roast chicken -- trying an "organic free range" bird, first time for this brand. Rubbed with garlic and lime juice, more garlic and a lime half in the cavity. Probably will overcook it because I'll be watching the football game. Mashed potatoes and steamed beet greens, finished with butter and lemon juice.
Sounds good. Over here it's a soup with onions, celery and peppers cooked in olive oil, white beans, two cans of diced tomatoes, some chicken broth, a bay leaf and thyme and some frozen roasted corn, we'll eat it with some semolina bread.
Regards, Ranee

Hey, I saw them in Costco yesterday ... frozen, right? Were they good?
I bet she made her own.
We having grilled flattened chicken breast with Greek seasoning (a sprinkle- on), grilled summer squash, and steamed rice. I'm only *thinking* about dessert. <g>

Sorry Nancy, I missed that. I knew that Dee had been experimenting with phyllo dough.

Yeah, I'd like to make them myself, I have made something like that in the past ... thought she might know if they were a good example for me to try for. Sorry, I mangled that, you know what I mean.

Would that I had made my own. DH saw these and said that HE would eat them if I didn't want them because as I recall there might be an ingredient in them that I had an objection to. (...to which I had an objection.) After eating my own spanakopita (once) and being hard on myself, I think mine had a better flavor. The spinach inside was good, but the cheese was pretty flavorless and there was no hint of green onion nor nutmeg which I believe is one of the spices, tho faint. Pretty mild tasting. Would I buy again -- probably not. But I would not discourage others from trying them. Dee Dee

Too much mayo?
I used to eat a lot of sliced tomato on white bread (almost Wonderbread, but not quite) with MIRACLE WHIP! It was my favorite. French's mustard and white onions on the same type of bread came in 2nd favorite.

I know those words are English, but together, they make no sense to me. :-)

It's either an oxymoron or mutually exclusive, take your pick. <g>
