Curry chicken and fried potatoes myself for yesterday's breakfast. Think I'll cook up those small cuts of steak along with making either steak shop fries or au gratin for dinner.
 
leftover ground beef and onions stuff, leftover shredded chicken breast, leftover rice, leftover red onions, some jarred minced garlic with olive oil, a bit of adobo, a leftover half a pat of butter
surprisingly decent
 
Weiner schnitzel came out so well baked potato sour cream and chives Brussel sprouts evoo sea salt and broiled and a bib lettuce salad with sweet pepper and cukes with a pinot noir.

My German friend @Rokko even approved of the veal I'm flattered!

You definitely need to try the thing with the rasped lemon peels in the breading.
But it really looks perfectly made!!
 
I made wraps with lettuce, crème fraîche and chicken spiced with salt, pepper and garlic powder and stir fried in sambal with onions. It was good.
 
Made a Tuna Casserole.

-1 pot and 1 casserole dish
-Macaroni boiled
-Celary and Onions cooked with butter
-Tuna from can mixed with other ingredients in casserole dish
-Season and mix again
-All the cheese slices in 2 separate layers


Baked till brown on top at temperature I chose at random in a toaster oven.
 
I made my first beef roast yesterday. 1 kilo of bottom round, marinated in garlic and herbs. Then pan seared on all sides, covered in rosemary and cracked black pepper and chucked in an oven for 45 minutes. Ended up really tender and nice.
 
Made some delicious mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes for Thanksgiving, and I'm definitely going to make them again for Christmas.

For the regular potatoes, peel and boil until soft (only took maybe 20 minutes, smaller pots heat up faster). Mash them up real good. Add a nice amount of butter, some fresh chopped garlic, a little bit of salt, and milk in VERY small quantities until it turns creamy. Toss in some other spices if you like too, rosemary and garlic is a classic but it's hard to go wrong with anything, really!

Same for the sweet potatoes, but instead of garlic and salt, I put in a nice hunk of brown sugar, some cinnamon (I prefer Vietnamese cinnamon but any is fine), and just a pinch of nutmeg. Cloves and allspice work too, but I like to keep it simple and save those for the pumpkin pie.

I don't know why, but I always thought making this kind of stuff was really hard. I was surprised at how easy it was to make, and how good it tasted. Making your own food is a really nice experience!
 
Gaze upon my beautiful homemade cheddar broccoli soup in jealousy and wonder

(It's starting to cool so it's ever so slightly thicker than it is heated up)
