January meals
 
I thought I would start this months, and because I was excited about dinner.


Does anyone else eat black eyed peas on new years day?

I made what I and dh thought were really amazing black eyed peas, collared greens and corn bread for dinner tonight.

This is one area of my life where I am a bad Southerner. (Well, that, and I really stink at handwriting Thank-you notes)
I have not made black eyed peas for new years in about 15 years.

I made chili tonight, with three kids of beans. None of which were black eyed peas.

If love a good recipe for black eyed peas, but, no, we don’t. We had a full roasted turkey and homemade honey rolls and the rest of thanksgiving sides.

I made these black eyed peas with corn muffins. They were so good https://minimalistbaker.com/smoky-in...-greens-vegan/

Tonight we had taco soup because we had 4 open bags of tortilla chips (seriously, what is wrong with people???)

Did you make it all at once in some giant pasta meal with mixed kinds? I totally would have!

Oh, my, word, it was the same kind of spaghetti from Costco! I can't fathom why they opened a new one every time! Gah! But, it will get eaten over the next couple of months. Teens!

I made a one pot pasta dish with chicken and pesto last night. It was easy and a good way to use up the pesto.

Probably making Thai peanut noodles and some slaw tonight. I need to figure out how to add some protein that is not chicken.

Last night was charcuterie. I was so tired so was so glad that all I had to do was put it out.

Tonight I'm going to try to make a creamy crockpot chicken thing to put over rice. Don't have a recipe so going to make it up. Speaking of which, I better get started! I'll serve green beans with it.

My sister and I started calling charcuterie Shark Coochie Coochie for some odd reason. (Okay, cause we're weird!) That's what we had on Christmas and NYE.

We're staying in a hotel for a speech tournament this week, so all our meals are ad-hoc and portable. I may have eaten nothing but granola bars and tic-tacs today. :shifty

Thank you for starting this! It's been crazy here with people staying over after Christmas and I'm only just getting back on board :)


Tonight we had Beef Goulash and rice.


As an Australian I have to ask....what are black eyed peas???

Black eyed peas are a type of bean, they are in the cowpea family. They have a light color except for a black dot. On the inside of the curve.


They were first domesticated in Africa and came to the American south with the slaves. For a very long time in the American south they were the slave food they could grow them selves and after the civil war they were generally pore people's food. It was a good basic crop because both livestock and people could eat it.

Tournament eating is something I struggle with. At the one last January I was thankful my adult kids recognized my low blood sugar and got me a Lotus. How did the tournament go?

NY day we had normal something.

Tonight is beef shepherd’s pie.
