Senior Day

Tuesday is Senior Citizen's Day at our A&P. They give you 5% off your order if you spend a certain amount. Yesterday was "meat day" for us. Got enough ground beef to make twelve big meatballs and six good sized hamburgers. They are made with seasoned breadcrumbs, an egg, diced onions, celery and spices. Made a big pot of sauce for a  linguini dinner! Have enough sauce and meatballs left over, so we'll have meat tortilla wraps for dinner tonight. I'll just add freshly diced pepper and stir in a bit of hot sauce, add a fresh salad and dinner is done!

10 pork chops: marinated and coated with a great coating mix and topped off with fresh basil and parmesan cheese..

 All wrapped and ready to go into freezer bags.

I also made up 10 chicken legs and four chicken breasts (no, not my girls) and into the freezer they went, too!

It takes most of the afternoon to get all this ready for future meals, plus all the cleanup that needs to be done preparing it all. But it is worth it - I don't have to worry about what to have for dinner for a long time!
