A busy day for quick, simple meals

A busy day for quick, simple meals

My wife fixed bacon and fried eggs for breakfast. One of my favorites, but I do miss the toast! For lunch (pictured), I shredded some iceberg lettuce, added Roma tomatoes, green and black olives, and oil and vinegar dressing. I also cut up 1/2 an avocado, plus pan fried some cut in half broccoli (left […]

Sausage and Egg “Muffins”

Sausage and Egg

I took a large muffin pan, sprayed it with some coconut oil cooking spray, then lined the muffin tins with a layer of sausage to make cups for eggs. I used a large muffin tin with room for 6 muffins. This took 1 full lb of sausage. I cooked the sausage at 375 F for […]

Salad and Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Ok, maybe I’m in a rut, but it sure is good! I sliced a handful of Brussels sprouts in half and pan-cooked them in sausage grease from breakfast. Brushed a little olive oil on top as well. Also made a salad with hot banana pepper slices, avocado, and oil and vinegar dressing. Also had a […]

Soft boiled eggs and sausage

Soft boiled three eggs and cooked two sausage patties for breakfast this morning. Eggs came out with the yolk just a little harder than I wanted, but still good nonetheless. This was my first time to cook soft boiled eggs. Here’s what I did. Get some water boiling. There should be enough water to cover […]

I had the Hill Country Sausage and Chicken Platter with steamed broccoli, carrots and green beans, plus a house salad with oil and vinegar. The meat was all grilled and not breaded. I did […]

Breakfast at Camp George Thomas

Having been warned that breakfast was going to be cinnamon rolls, I didn’t even go to the cafeteria! So I avoided the cinnamon rolls altogether.  I fixed myself about 1/2 lb bacon and 2 fried eggs with our mess kit and camp stove.  I had fixed two more eggs for the family, but no one […]

A full day of meals at Camp George Thomas

Well, we were at camp.  And I wasn’t prepared enough to fight off the meal ticket.  So we have a few fails here.  Not terribly bad, but certainly not a good Paleo day. Saturday morning they had biscuits and gravy, and I just gave up and ate it (2 biscuits with not near enough gravy). […]

A “tip” about asparagus

Pun intended.  When you put asparagus in the refrigerator, it needs to be very dry.  Put it away wet, and it will rot by the next day.  However, if this happens, all might not be lost! Asparagus seems to rot from the top down.  If it smells rotten, but the stalks look more or less […]
