Also, looming out there on the horizon is another site
offering ideas:

THE BIG SPUD
http://www.bigspud.com/

for those who have a fondness for potatoes.

Fresh baked bread and home made baked potato soup. Yum! (especially with grated cheddar and bacon bits added to the soup... yum, yum!)

3 to 5lb pork tenderloin
juice and 1/2 bottle of jalapenos
1 - 2 lbs baby carrots
3 - 5 lbs potatoes
garlic
black pepper

carrots take away most of the heat but leave a spicy flavor
make gravy from the drippings

shred any leftover meat and add bbq sauce for quick pork sandwiches

Will see if there is a way to transfer all to one place in ‘Big Oven’ Something fun to play with when you have a little extra time on your hands ;)

I don’t know about that, restaurant food (other than salads) will put on more weight than home cooking. There’s a reason it tastes so good!

Especially since NYS has shuttered all the nice parks to use for walkies...

Thanks-we are remodeling so I have no kitchen. Crockpot meals every night and I need new ideas.

Maybe and maybe not.

Home cooked food tends to be less fattening than take out.

Hi, Liz. Hope all is well.

I’ve been making Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic for a while now and it seems like the perfect Corona Virus antidote! Who is going to come near us with THAT? I buy pre-peeled garlic to make it easier. A wonderfully unctuous dish as the garlic melds into a sweet sauce.

Here's an excellent recipe for roast beef in crock pot...

Drop it in the crock pot (add no water or liquid it will make it's own)
Sprinkle a full pouch of Onion Soup mix on top
Set on low and let it cook all day

That's it! And the flavor is Delicious! The meat so tender you can pull it apart with a fork! Simple!

*You can add Potatoes and carrots etc. if you want. I never do.
