Quesadillas with homemade taco meet and ranch style beans. With a dessert of Cherry Jello for DH and raw homemade peanut butter cookie dough for me.

I don't understand DH's love of jello. But, he dearly loves it, so I've been keeping it around lately.

I love reading this thread. It gives me so many great ideas for dinners.

Tonight, we had broiled wild Sockeye salmon, steamed brown jasmine rice, and green beans with pine nuts sauteed in olive oil.

Last night we had pork pizzaiola, asparagus, and mashed potatoes with butter. Come to think of it, I haven't used maragarine for several years!

Man, that sounds good! But beware, if the meal does not involve something with hooves, there will be protests!

Which reminds me, if anyone enjoys a quirky read, get The Shameless Carnivore. The author reports on his quest to eat a different meat, or cut thereof, every day for a year. The guinea pig account is hilarious!

Hooves? Gross. I am NOT eating hooves for dinner.

Actually, I'm trying to stay away from livestock that could have potentially been fed hormones. I have a thyroid condition and there are some theories bouncing around out there that these hormones that are commonly given to cows, pigs, etc. may be negatively affecting thyroid function in humans. So, I'm trying to eat mostly sustainable seafood, chicken that does not have added hormones, organic milk, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Will it help? Who knows, we'll have to wait and see.

Ground deer meat in a pasta sauce done with mushroom soup for a poor mans (and healthier too) version of alfredo sauce on flaxseed pasta noodles. tomato pasta sauce gives me killer heart burn .. so my wife either cuts the tomato sauce in 1/2 with mushroom soup .. or leaves out the tomato sauce totally in her pasta dishes. Of course in the mushroom soup sauce .. she puts peppers ... red and green .. onions ... garlic .. plus who knows what else. ITs SOOO YUMMY!

Ok .. its morning here and now im hungry ..
