I need a nap, but I'm thinking about fried chicken. Got a large chicken at WalMart for $.67 cents a pound. It's easy to cut out the backbone and chop it up, so I'm thinking I'll dredge it in a cornmeal mix after chopping it and I'll fry it up.
Can do a salad on the side, peas or okra. Have some catfish, too, but it's an either or deal. I'm craving fried chicken.

I'm wanting french dip roast beef but also watching the Eagles vs. Raiders and rootin' for the Raiders, in Eagles territory, so I don't know if I'll make it to the kitchen after the game, alive.

I'm still using up leftovers from your beloved sloppy joes. 😉 I had made a large pan of the meat mixture. Then I turned some of the leftover mixture into a chili-mac casserole with macaroni and some cheese. I used the rest of the chili-spiced meat mixture yesterday to make a medium-sized pot of chili. So I figure I'll be eating more chili tonight. I didn't get around to making cornbread so I'll have some corn chips on the side. The weather cooled off so the windows are open (yes, it's raining); I don't want to heat the oven and warm the place up as long as I can enjoy having the windows open without sweating.
Your fried chicken sounds pretty good, although I've never had it prepared with a cornmeal coating mixture. I actually like oven-fried chicken (not when I don't want to use the oven) coated with those instant potato flakes. It wouldn't fry well, though, and of course potatoes (even the fake ones) and flour are mostly a no-no in your house.

We were going to go have dinner at this seafood place nearby that my FIL (in-laws are here visiting from CA) absolutely loves, but a lot of the restaurants in this area aren't back up and running yet after Rita, so I've got some pork tenderloins marinating in a lemon/oil/garlic/spices mixture. We'll grill those tonight and have them with brown rice pilaf, a salad, and some sort of veggie (to be decided on later). Rockfish Seafood will have to wait til tomorrow night...

Well I had a 4 egg cheese omlete for lunch...But I have a picnic roll pork shoulder in the crockpot for supper...It's been cooking since 8AM this morning...I'm not to sure which veggies I'll cook for supper with it though.

Oooh, that sounds good, how large is it and did you put anything into the crockpot with it? I would like to make that later this week. It's getting cooler and I'm feeling like cooking more.

I put the picnic roll in the crockpot. I sprinkle on the dreaded onion soup powder mix and I let it go...Oh! fat side up. No liquids no trivets, just the Picnic roll. I let her cook about 6 hrs on high or 10+ hours on low.
Makes for a good ham feast for supper and meat for lunches for most of the week. So next week for lunch I'll be doing chef salads, ham stir fries...ham and cheese style casseroles and ham and grilled zuchinni or asparagus.

I made a large batch of beef bourguignon yesterday. I froze most of it but will be serving some tonight with buttered egg noodles. I also made an oven dried tomato, chevre and herb [censored] this afternoon which we'll probably dig into.

About 7-8 lbs (The label IIRC said 3.27 kilograms). Comes in a net bag inside of a vaccumed sealled plastic bag...usually close to the real hams in the meat section. I like it because it's easy, real cheap and tastes great. I do remove all wrappings before I cook it.

There was this commercial on foodtv yesterday, I wasn't paying attention until I heard the voice say something about making sloppy joe mac ... hey, that's Jill's recipe! It was a recipe for Krafts, so I assume Manwich is one of their products.

You've got to try the cornmeal mixture. Gosh, it's so much better than anything you can buy! All we do is cornmeal mix, garlic, pepper and a little salt and it gets so nice and crispy! It's absolutely yummy.

Lunch is hit or miss...don't know if I'll be eating it or not. More likely than not, I'll slice off a few hunks of the longhorn Colby I got in Wisconsin and have it with some crackers. Dinner, penne pasta with sun dried tomatoes, grilled turkey tenderloin, and a parmesan cream sauce. Prolly a few veggies too.

I could go for some pasghetti.................

I'm still procastinating even though between posts the salsa is almost ready to go on too cook. What you could do is sub the spaghetti with spaghetti squash then top with tomato sauce. It is a fair imitation of regular spaghetti while being low carb and vegetarian. It makes for a real cheap meal! Just in case you don't know how to cook it, cut in half and remove any seeds. Place cut side down in pan with water. Bring to a boil then let squash steam a little. Using a fork remove the spaghetti squash which will resemble regular spaghetti. Top with your favourite sauce. Oh kili, I was going to tell you I regularly check the vegetarian websites and newsgroups because they have great ways to do veggies for something a little different. Since you are doing the low carb thing it might be an idea for you. They come up with some really neat ideas!

It's chilly, rainy and crappy here, which ruined my Sunday gardening plans. I'm cooking up a big pot of chili. I hesitate to call it poblano chili but I've some poblanos and a couple of habanero left to add to the pot. I'll post a pic when it's done on abf. I'm thinking some jalapeno cornbread and a salad to go with. That should use up just about all my peppers.
