Enjoy your dinner. What’s in a subgum besides the protein?

I had macaroni and cheese for dinner.

Bok choy, snow peas, carrots.
I didn't care for the "clear" sauce tho.
That's what I get for getting something different.
I should have stuck with my usual General Tso, or sesame chicken.

By the way, our new Panda Express opens this weekend.
Yay. I love their food.

That sounds good to me. I used to get Subgum chicken chow mein from my favorite take out. But they closed and no one else makes it. Chicken almond ding comes close but not the same. I tried so many Chinese restaurants after it closed hoping the cooks might get jobs at other restaurants but no luck. I like the white sauce (clear) on chicken, pork and vegetable dishes. I only like the dark sauce on beef. We finally found a place that has half way decent cooks and recipes.

Breakfast was coffee yogurt.
Lunch will probably be tuna salad and crackers.

If all goes well and as planned dinner will be Beef, refried Beans (homemade) and cheese enchiladas and Mexican rice. Not sure if there will be a veggie.

Coffee yogurt for breakfast.
I want a BLT for lunch. We'll see if that happens. LOL

Well I'm going to try again for enchilada dinner tonight.

But who knows what DD will want.

The Canadian sockeye are in - must not be a tariff on them. I did this one with alder for smoke.

Well my refried beans are cooking in the Instant Pot. First run on these.
Hopefully they will turn out good.

The refried beans turned out good. They did need a bit more salt.

DD's went to Barnes and Noble after work and decided they wanted take out. So KFC chicken pot pie was my dinner. :huh::sad:
I guess enchiladas tomorrow.

Tonight is going to be leftovers.
I made a lot of the linguine in clam sauce!
Maybe salads too.

We had homemade Instant Pot refried beans (not very photogenic), Mexican rice (I used Knorr's Tomato & Chicken bouillon cube & it had a very good flavor), and Beef, refried bean and cheese enchiladas.

Craig makes the black beans. I don't know what he does, but they don't taste as good when I make them even though I make them like he tells me. So, he'll have to field that one.



Do you mean red beans and rice?

Ok. Hopefully Craig can give me tips or recipe for black beans.
Yes, red beans and rice please. I'd like to cook the beans in the Instant Pot (no soaking necessary YAY). I've done canned red beans and would like to try again starting with dry beans. TIA
