WOW - May is almost gone. Where the heck did it go????? So, what's on the menu for today?
We're making a Costco run today and finishing up with leftovers. Tomorrow we're starting a healthy eating style for a while; I just feel sluggish. Tonight is the last night of leftovers - I froze some of the Seafood pasta and have 2 of the Game day sandwiches left. boy, does the fridge look bare!!

New recipe (for me): Chicken Tinga from the Cuisine Lite book that has the maple brined chicken on the cover.
Will make tacos out of it.

I don't know - I got up a O-Dark-thirty to get to work at 7 only to find out that Chad had two of us scheduled. Bob, thinking I was working, made a golf date so when he gets done we're going shopping. Something on the grill - that will go with potato salad.

Trixxee, that's a very tasty dish.
It's steak night again tonight. NY strip steak with brandy mushroom sauce and asparagus as a side.

I wanted something that could sit on the grill while I sit on the deck with wine. Beer can chicken with my special rub seemed to fit the bill. Corn on the cob and fresh salad will be the sides.

Trixxee, let us know how you like that dish. I have that book. Thanks, Blane for your comment as well.

We didn't get home until almost 7pm, and were too tired to do much. I made him bacon and eggs.
Practice safe lunch. Use a condiment.

Loved the chicken tinga! (Picture up on FB)! The only thing I did differently was to use much less chipotles in adobo sauce. My husband's ulcer has been acting up so he was afraid for me to use the full amount. I cut in half, at least.
We have some nice leftovers for lunch today. Now that Tony is working out of the house I have to come up with lunches too.

That was a challenge for me also, Trixxee. But, one good thing that came out of it - we were able to start having main meal mid-day and a light something at dinnertime. We love it.
