Japanese clay pot mixed rice with salmon and mushrooms (shiitake and king oyster). My tiny pressure cooker played the part of the clay pot this evening.
I’ve been craving this for a while, and have had all the ingredients at hand so I don’t know why it took me so long to get to it. Used up a bunch of sautéed mushrooms I had frozen a while back.
Such a flavorful dish for so few ingredients.

A 1.64 pound rib eye . From my favorite meat market. I had to cut and vacuum seal for two other meals. Rice with blanched Brussel sprouts sautéed in butter. Cheers .

I had a dentist visit to install a permanent crown on a major back molar. The glue he used tasted very unpleasant for most of the evening and my tooth hurts. I microwaved some Mac and cheese from a local family-owned deli. I had Covid a few months ago and my tastebuds are still impaired, so I basically eat to fill my belly. It’s kind of a depressing state of affairs…

Beans and greens dinner, kind of, with bruschetta on the side for crunch. I amped up canned butter beans in a sauce of sautéed onion, slivers of sweet yellow pepper, thyme, tomato paste, and hot pepper paste. Quicker than starting with dried beans, though the texture wasn’t as satisfying.

Yes!!! 
absolutely agree! Similar to your cat sitter, my friend offered to help me out with my gang in exchange for Thai food and pineapple juice.

Blargh. Dental work definitely falls in the necessary but not fun category, that’s for sure. Glad that you are taking good care of yourself.

Thank you. We both have been going to the same dentist for over 20 years, and I told him today that he cannot retire! He’s excellent and we trust him. I can’t imagine finding someone else.

It really was. That’s how we feel here too (cold, grey and frosty) so we’re doing lots of comfort foods.
Gorgeous, all of it.
Lovely. Added that recipe to my box. Maybe I can hit 500 saved recipes soon

I love it. She’s not expensive by any means, but she already asked if we could do the same deal next time she’s sitting for us
