So it was turkey leftovers, in many forms, for us this week. We did take a break from turkey and had steaks from the freezer yesterday, before my husband rebelled!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01076857756927188413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-20926968250651890902017-04-21T15:31:35.801-07:002017-04-21T15:31:35.801-07:00We didn't do Ham for Easter, and right now I c...We didn't do Ham for Easter, and right now I can't recall what we had.

Just fry them up in a pan three minutes or so per side and you can eat it like a sandwich or sometimes as the meat portion of a potato/veggie dinner. I like mine with cheese like a philly steak sandwich. <br /><br />AliceAlicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06024364480893258511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-35563142284250368752017-04-21T07:21:34.019-07:002017-04-21T07:21:34.019-07:00Hi Alice,

Homemade dinner rolls are the best. I bought some brown and serve rolls for New Years this year, and thought they were terrible, compared to homemade. Enjoy your dinner! and have a great weekend!Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-31083895274642517502017-04-21T07:17:09.638-07:002017-04-21T07:17:09.638-07:00Hi live and learn,

It's nice to know that in many ways your mom is well-cared for there.<br />Thank you. I will be done soon. Have a wonderful weekend, live and learn!Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-86605137916809976472017-04-21T05:37:38.756-07:002017-04-21T05:37:38.756-07:00Hi Lili,

We had a little bit out for munching but we've already eaten one of the frozen pkgs. We had two boxes of scalloped potatoes and those were gone at the Easter meal and frozen green beans that I only had a small handful left after the meal. I chose to add meatballs (from a pkg, frozen) and I had only a few left. We had homemade dinner rolls that we had some leftover that I froze and a lemon dessert.<br /><br />Monday was the soft tacos<br />Tuesday chicken Mansaf<br />Wednesday was leftover chicken mansaf and pasta salad for me<br />Thursday was chicken noodle soup using a watered down ham broth so it wouldn't taste hammy.<br />Tonight hubby wants sizzle steak sandwiches (remember sizzle steaks?)<br /><br />I'm sure sizzle steaks are terrible for your health but once in a while he wants to walk down memory lane of his youth and this is something that he fondly remembers. Why should I deny him that? Nope, if he wants that once in a while then he should have that! Since I only have dinner rolls, that will be our bun. <br /><br />AliceAlicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06024364480893258511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-5872722976595978602017-04-21T04:42:11.766-07:002017-04-21T04:42:11.766-07:00We didn't have ham, but did have a delicious t...We didn't have ham, but did have a delicious turkey and fixings meal with my mother at her nursing home. The hospital (attached to the nursing home) is known for it's good food and this meal did not disappoint.<br /><br />Good luck with all of your deadlines. Don't forget to stop and breathe then and again.Live and Learnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493777474885053903noreply@blogger.com
