I disagree. Not enough sauce!

I didn’t think it possible.
And I hated to admit it.

How are you finding your homemade kefir? I tried, I really tried…I love the commercial stuff but think it’s full of sugar…I just didn’t like my own version! And it was such a daily commitment, gave me COVID sourdough fears…

It took me a while to get into the groove but I now have a routine where I strain the kefir as I’m doing the dishes so it’s automatic now. I’m also used to the sour flavour now and I’m not sure how long it’s been since I had the store bought kefir. It’s a lot simpler than making yoghurt which I was also doing for a while.

I’ve been inspired by @Starlight14 winter salad to use the cavolo Nero I got from the farmers market in a salad. I’ve only ever had it cooked before.

I can’t wait to be able to chew properly again! In the meantime the last of the potato leek soup is helping. I had two root canals yesterday. Onward and upward! And more cooking and eating in my future.

Comfort food. Who grew up eating macaroni, ground beef ( today I took mild Italian sausage out of the casings and broke it up), onions and diced tomatoes?
DELISH!

Had a hankering for stuffed mushrooms. I normally use diced bacon in the filling with sautéed stems, onion, shredded cheeses, cream cheese. Out of bacon so I subbed smoked mussels to get that smoky flavour. Might sound odd but was tasty. Bonus more protein & iron

Thought I’d try my hand in a potato leek soup. Saw a recipe in the Washington Post. Also brings back memories of our 6 hour family trips to Canada stopping off at the Jack O Lantern Inn in North Woodstock NH. Just googled it. It’s still there 
Anyway…

Yes! Portillos is awesome. The dogs are are good but my favorite are the beefs. Wet, with (peppers), mozzarella cheese. Now i know what I’m getting for lunch haha.

Ya, they sounded and looked great! I kinda wish I had gotten one. Maybe next time if I can get wifey to go back. Too much “snap” on the dog for her 
How are the burgers? Maybe I can lure her back for a burger.
