Sounds delicious.

I have Tilapia out to blacken and some sugar snap peas with a little oven roasted potatoes and onions.

Does this mean you are feeling better raven? I hope?

I'm going to have steamed tilapia, a potato, and fordhook lima beans. Angela, I really like butternut squash. I like to add it to my homemade vegetable soups.

I just had some homemade ham, potato and lentil soup. I'll probably have a bowl of cereal after my shift at 10.

Angela, you're doing so good with all of your vegetables! I love roasted vegetables, and like you I've never had the squash. I do roasted Acorn squash and we like it.

Sweet potatoes are sweet, but we like them cubed with white potatoes, tossed with lots of olive oil and whole garlic cloves and roasted in a baking dish. Delicious!

Tonight we are having cedar planked salmon, risotto, asperagus tips and a mixed green salad. For dessert, I made pecan butter tarts.

Angelaid, we love butternut squash, in fact I was planning to do that tomorrow night. I don't find it sweet, or not like a sweet potato. I like to drizzle a little olive oil and a touch of balsamic vinegar on it when I serve it. My kids love it with a little brown sugar glaze baked on it.

No matter what, you are doing so good with the veggies, and if you don't care for the squash, you tried it. That is more than lots of other people are willing to do. There are lots more veggies out there to try and conquer!

All that talk about greens & beans on the cooking forum, so I'm planning to go with that.

Halibut sounds really good! I love sweet potatoes -- in my experience, butternut squash is not as sweet as sweet potatoes.

not as sweet but mom still put a bit of butter ad brown sugar for me as a kid...

since I can't eat tonight, had dental done today, fixed dh a pizza...I had Kellogg drink...(and soft diet for several more days)

I love butternut squash; it's one of my favorites. It won't be sweet unless you make it sweet by adding sugar, maple syrup, etc. Ick. Remember, even though they are both orange and loaded with nutritional benefits, sweet potatoes and squash aren't related at all.

Party, what kind of 'greens and beans' did you fix, and how?

I'm roasting a chicken stuffed with kasha dressing, yum. I'm getting ready to roast some Brussels sprouts, as soon as the chicken comes out.

Thanks for asking! Yes finally I am feeling like I am among the living again. The food still doesn't taste right yet, hopefully my tastebuds will recover.
It was a long time coming.

rhizo, the kale looked better than the escarole, so I went with kale. Tonight I sauteed 2 cloves minced garlic in olive oil, added chopped kale (ribs removed, about 8 oz), some salt, and about 1/2 cup water and covered/cooked until kale started cooking down... stirring occasionally. I then added a can of drained cannellini beans, covered again to heat through, then added 3 coarsely chopped pickled cherry peppers. Heated through, then served with grated parmesan and balsamic vinegar. YUM YUM YUM!!! :)

Tonight at work at a nursing home we had chicken Phillys they were really good.

I had to play Mexican Train tonight so just had some chicken noodle soup.

Raven, glad to hear you're feeling a bit better. A rise in the appetite is always a good sign.

Deviled eggs, nothing else. And now I am starving! I just wasn't hungry last night. They were good tasting eggs though.
