"Meals", cooked by you.

That looks delicious, @Krystal !
I made granola today. It has fresh apples, oatmeal, flax, chia, pumpkin, and sunflower seeds in it, and also some chopped dehydrated apricot and some raisins.
The yogurt is culturing in the yogurt machine, so it will be ready by tomorrow.

Tamale casserole.
I made this today for supper. This is a picture of my tamale casserole I took some years ago, when I was on food forums and making myself picture cookbooks. It is served with some tortilla chips, and if you like alcohol ,a cold beer or margarita goes nicely with it.

That looks really good Krystal, I love looking at prepared foods, giving you a better appetite, before figuring out what meal to fix next time.

Tasty and healthy.

Nothing ambitious. Pot Roast, some potatoes and carrots and onions. Nice beefy gravy. Steamed broccoli.

Hot Now, chocolate chip cookies with pecans, and baked chicken breast, green peas, and home made biscuits.

Chocolate peanut clusters and chocolate chip cookies. I make these every year at Christmas just for my brother. They are two of his favorites.

I hear ya! Chocolate chip cookies are my kryptonite. When I make them for my husband and I, I make them with half the sugar and I use only dark chocolate chips. They are still plenty sweet for us.

These are 1/2 cup organic cane sugar, and half cup light brown sugar, dark chocolate chips and pecans; but since Marie is diabetic, I'm going to cut it in half and make her a different little batch, next time. They are "Kryptonite", for sure.

I made some Sweet Potato Chips today. They have to be cut very thin to get crispy. Some of them were nice and crispy and some; not too much. I still ate them anyway. They were good!

Looks "tasty", to me.What kind of oil do you fry them in? We use only peanut oil, so far, they're crispy each time.

I use light tasting olive oil. I'm sure the chips are really really GOOD fried!! It certainly guarantees getting them crispy. When I fry foods, I always use peanut oil too. But now, I try not to fry foods to often.

I bake my sweet potato chips. I slice them and then put them in a zip lock bag with a little oil; shake-shake; and lay them out on either a wire rack on a cookie sheet or a lined cookie sheet with non stick foil or parchment paper; sprinkle with salt and.....bake!

"Oh", I had forgotten about baking them; sometimes we bake them too whole, but just bake them with nothing on them, add a little sea salt for taste, afterward, if you're like me. Olive is good for making them crispy, "I would think".

I made some hamburger buns and rolls today. I had some left over chicken so I will make some BBQ chicken sandwiches to have on the fresh hamburger buns for supper.

I just can’t make that picture into a cheese burger and fries, @Jake Smith . It looks like some kind of little pieces of toast , maybe ?

 

[Jake Smith]

Took one back out of the fridge, and opened it to show you, it's of course homemade hamburger patties, mayonnaise, sweet onions, worcestershire sauce, and toast. Fries are potatoes cut in wedges for whole fries. That's Spoleto Italian Style bread, we don't usually use hamburger buns.


"Can you tell now"?

I made a half batch of walnut cookies today and some crispy oven bacon. .....Like no one has ever seen bacon before.
