What's Cooking?

HollyGolightly

My mom bought a 21 pound turkey to feed 7 people. Y'all want to join us? She's operating off the "if you build it, they will come" idea from that Kevin Costner movie. It's always such fun (Ha!). I have perfected my broccoli salad, so that's exciting and that's what I'm taking. 

Tonight was no cook Friday - the Ogre had a chicken curry craving, so that's what he had- take out. I had the butteriest peanutbutteriest English Muffin I could make. And a hunk of Tillamook Vermont White Cheddar. Follow me on Facebook for more ways to increase your cholesterol!

Andy is making a ham and cheese quiche which sounds delicious (and smells really good)

I've already had quite a lot of calories today so I might have a sliver but then burn it off later on my stationary bike

Has anyone cooked pork loin stuffed medallions before.   I’m talking individual cut medallions . 

I got cut and stuffed wild  rice and mushrooms medallions for thanksgiving. 

I know i need to sear them, but i want to finish in oven. Tenderloins can easily dry out — any tips on spices and best cooking time and temps for them.   My google skills are only bringing up whole stuffed tenderloins cooked and THEN cut into medallions after cooking.

Found this recipe Deejers.

Cooking the usual at t'giving.   Turkey, gravy , stuffing, cranberry sauce (not the jelly can)  coleslaw. Actually BF is cooking all that.     I'll help out.
First time thanksgiving in a long time in my own place.

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving.

Tonight I am making a recipe called "Magic Meatloaf" - an old recipe I found in the booklet that came with an old crockpot.

You use a package of onion soup mix (maybe that's the magic part?)

Right now I am toasting an Everything bagel, cooking some KD (That is what we call Kraft Dinner but Americans call it Mac 'n Cheese) and I just finished a few treats (like a few chocolate covered pretzels and five chocolate covered almonds.

I am having some cravings and I think it's because I have lost 19.4 pounds but my body is rebelling and wants to go back to my previous [bigger] size.

I'm not giving up! I will record all the foods I eat, even the so-called 'bad' foods and I'll get through this

I am on Noom by the way and I signed up for a whole year - my subscription will expire in August 22

Wow, good for you Neesy! 

I made bbq pork ribs and au gratin potatoes tonight. Haven't eaten yet, but the ribs are fall apart tender. They look so good.

Mmmmm - that sounds good - Andy is cooking today and made a beef and vegetable soup using a beef shank.

He's also cooking some stewing beef in the pressure cooker and he's going to add root vegetables and make some gravy - this sounds really good to me.

Today I finally got down to 20 lb down so I am feeling like I've accomplished something even though it's taken me almost six months.

If you're reading this @Notaro that's about 1.5 stone

Wow - how'd ya get Naomi to come over and cook?

Hope it turned out really good

I wish! It would’ve tasted better because all food tastes better when someone else  makes it. 

It was yummy.
