Did you ever really enjoy anything when it was fixed however (with lots of butter and salt, usually), and could eat as much as you could hold? NO! But now that you limit yourself in portions and fix it in healthy ways, it tastes so much better. Altho---last night I was thinking maybe I should go on a low (or non) carb diet for a few weeks so I could just PIG OUT on meat. I'm not gonna do it, but pigging out on meat sure sounds like fun! Then hubby pointed out that I already don't eat many carbs, so I'm afraid a pigging out on meat (with or without carbs added) would just add pounds!dupsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18088114640385927198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-12927573004257073052011-10-03T23:20:48.223-04:002011-10-03T23:20:48.223-04:00Thanks for sharing your cooking prowess!

Last week I made a grilled cheese sandwich with provolone, roma tomato and pesto that was so yummy. I can't wait to make it again. :)Adrianne Russellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18108123882094459747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-11415411457790091572011-10-03T11:35:01.961-04:002011-10-03T11:35:01.961-04:00Mine is not healthy at all.

My kids all beg for my fried chicken and mashed potatoes with gravy when they're home...and biscuits and gravy for breakfast. The only thing healthy my family seemed to like was a dirty rice I made up once with toasted pine nuts, green onions and curry. I sure do miss grilled cheese sandwiches though!Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15717758915060629723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-79391192045774286912011-10-03T11:06:07.061-04:002011-10-03T11:06:07.061-04:00My homemade lemon cheesecake with lemon curd is al...My homemade lemon cheesecake with lemon curd is always a hit (but not healthy!), my hubby is thrilled with anything meat and potatoes.

I do make a mean lasagna, but I think I may be my own biggest fan there.<br /><br />Hubby makes a potato soup to die for. I don't even want to consider the calorie count, but it rocks! I keep trying to get him to tone it down for me, but so far no luck.another layerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756727485274694135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-47363537716366679072011-10-03T08:28:56.424-04:002011-10-03T08:28:56.424-04:00The two that come to mind that my husband always a...The two that come to mind that my husband always asks me to make are meatloaf with a fresh mushroom gravy, and chicken manicotti.

Seriously. I love it. And now, I want it. <br /><br />My "signature" dishes are: cheesecake, alfredo sauce, marinara/meatballs, turkey foccacia sandwiches, chocolate chip cookies, potage parmentier, and turkey.<br /><br />Those are the most requested anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-49561644646989867132011-10-03T07:19:21.605-04:002011-10-03T07:19:21.605-04:00That was seriously better than any restaurant I co...That was seriously better than any restaurant I could have gone to for either meal.
