Made a small batch of enchiladas for dinner. Cheese for DH and Chicken for me. Salad on the side instead of our usual rice and beans.
We saw a display today and DD wants to try itThese are pan gnocchi. They have them in most places around here but I think Aldi only carries those all in one box Rana meals. This is usually by the fresh pasta. I has fresh spinach and what I usually do if I’m having with pasta is put the baby spinach in a colander and when you drain the pasta the hot water wilts the spinach perfectly. Since these were skillet gnocchi I sautéed it with those in a bit of olive oil. My fave sauce with them is the cacio de Pepe from Trader Joe’s but it’s also nice with marinara or just brown butter.View attachment 843969
Which meal service? We tried several the winner was Marley spoon. But it gets pricey once the discount runs out.I suspended the meal subscription for the next couple of weeks; we'll be doing different things for Easter and I can always re-start at any point. So that means I'm actually meal planning, shopping and cooking again for the first time in months. Tonight it's quesadillas with a mexi-fries type side.
It’s not like home made IMHO but it’s good. McKays is the best especially rhubarb ginger. I can sometimes find it in the British section in grocery shop.Can I ask how the jam is? I hear a lot of people talk about. I make my own jam, is it homemade quality? Or is it crazy sweat like most store bought jam? There are some flavors I don’t make because the fruit isn’t available near me and I’ve looked at their jam from time to time when wanting a different flavor.
My husband loved it.We saw a display today and DD wants to try it
Pan gnocchi are fun to make. I buy them shelf stable from a local Italian pasta shop but great to know I can find them at Aldi’s too!We saw a display today and DD wants to try it
Probably ran off with my maid.Not sure what’s for din tonight. Have been on GiGi duty since 5:30am. Need my chef to make an appearance at my house later.
We've been using Hello Fresh, which I think is also available in the States. In the past, we've used several others and they're all really satisfactory, but I agree - much more economical with the "introductory" deals.Which meal service?

It’s soooo hard to get good help nowadays!?!
I liked that one as well. Blue Apron was not worth it .We've been using Hello Fresh, which I think is also available in the States. In the past, we've used several others and they're all really satisfactory, but I agree - much more economical with the "introductory" deals.
