What I'm Reading This Week #25
Hello and happy Friday from the land of the scorching sun. We are in for absolute Hades conditions the next few days, right on cue for the summer solstice. You know I'm not happy about that. 😒 Thankfully, my other 50% shade cloth just arrived and is airing out so they can go on in the afternoons. I have stuff in the big planters that are not fans of scorching heat so I need to be as on it as possible if I don't want it to go to poop for other reasons to add to the current reasons. (Rain, pests, etc) I'm tryin' y'all! I just got my little lint rollers to roll aphids/larvae off instead of wasting shipping tape. I swear to you I have not seen ONE BEE since everything went in. There was this chubby bumble bee that would hang out when our lilac was in bloom and just zone out levitating so I thought for sure she would be here for it all. Nope. The second it bloomed, it was gone. I haven't seen honeybees at all. I've checked ...
Some wonderful food this week, thanks to you. I know I am very lucky to have someone who can make even healthier food taste soo amazing. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThanks hon! If you ever forget it, my cousin will quickly remind you what a good "chef" you have at home! ;-)

DeleteI made a chicken mexican shepards pie last night. It was kind of, throw some stuff together and figure it out night.
ReplyDeleteShredded chicken, black beans, salsa, corn, and a little bit of cheese on the bottom, topped with cornbread and baked. Quite tasty!
YUM! Throw togethers are the best recipes!

My fav dish of the week is a bitter melon stuffed with chick pea flour and spices and cooked...so yum!!!
HA...seems to be the concensus!
DeleteI saw a creamy mushroom wild rice soup recipe (from Oh My Veggies I think) and made that. SUPER yummy. I could make soup every day. I was thinking of trying to make a ruben soup this weekend (or maybe fish tacos now that you mention it). We'll see how that goes. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAhh yes, I'm wanting to make Kiersten's soup too. So glad to hear you liked it.
DeleteI'm sure you've given the recipe below and I've missed it (I'm a recent reader. Loving your blog!) but could you share your recipe for the bbq chicken naan pizza? Looks like it'd be a winner in our house. Thanks :)
