So I'm already way behind on the resolution to cook 3-4 meals a week--this week I mostly ate leftovers.
I made a "Red Wine Turkey Stew with Biscuit Dumplings", but I think that counts as last week. The recipe is in Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Recipes for Two . Here's a picture of everything in the slow cooker:
I used Marie Callender's biscuit mix for the dumplings. The stew tasted good, but it needed more liquid. Maybe the chunks of veggies and meat needed to be smaller? And I think I would skip the dumplings on top and just make biscuits or have bread on the side.
I've also been eating my leftover meatloaf (same recipe Mom used) for ages. Luckily it's pretty delicious. I had meatloaf sandwiches a couple times, meatloaf with fries and salad, and last night I had meatloaf with salad and parsley pesto potatoes (put pesto and potatoes in aluminum foil and bake in oven). This meatloaf is Italian, so I prefer to eat it with marinara sauce rather than ketchup. Here's my plate from last night:
I need to get to the store to buy more celery so I can make my next planned dish...
I made a topping for the meatloaf but think I'll try the marinara sauce next time. Tonight I am going to cook a rump roast, not yet sure how.
