This was one of those “quick” unplanned meals so just had a leftover baked potato. Ideally mashed potatoes or buttered noodles would be great.

Jamieson22 Yeah buttered noodles would have been a solid choice.

Well the wife started a new work schedule with the new year, she’s working evenings every day so supper is now
on me during the week. Things may be getting more simple in my kitchen, I’ve got an 1.5 year old to occupy as well.For my first home-alone cook, earlier in the week it was a pesto and Parmesan pasta with roasted brussel sprouts and venison sausage, sided with a frozen vegetable mix and garlic bread.
RafterW Good job, you’ll get used to menu planning fast. I cook every night even though my wife works from home now. When we were both working I still cooked since I got home first, her commute sucks in the evening, sometimes it was two hours (52 miles each way). Of course my youngest now is 34 and out of the house, so I don’t have to worry what someone might be into or who might be under my feet. Remember the old adage, Happy Wife, Happy Life!

Did a very quick/easy Creamy Garlic Dijon Chicken.

johnsbrewhouse the old adage is my credo, however I still stray from it from time to time.
RafterW When I do, it seems to create some up-happiness in my life and cost me with some sort of quilting equipment.

My wife decided that she was craving some fried chicken thighs and pasta roni.

Well so much for keeping it simple lol. I had half a package of manicotti shells from an appetizer I made for NYE, smoked shotgun shells, and some burger that I had cooked and froze to use up. I made a simple Alfredo sauce and added in the burger, quartered and roasted Brussels sprouts and some garlic to the sauce. Stuffed the shells and baked them. If I did it again I’d make 2x the sauce to really drown the shells in it and thin that portion of the sauce out a bit, the sauce for stuffing was the perfect consistency. I used the larger sprouts for the side and of course I added garlic bread to my continual carb load lol. I’ve never seemed to have a problem with carbs, but I don’t eat large portions. What you see on the plate is all I ate for supper.

Jamieson22 That looks fantastic. Your gravy would be great over noodles. Nice winter’s meal.

HerbcoFood Nice combination. Chicken and pasta were made for each other.

RafterW Many people can’t make a meal from the “fridge” because it’s not in a recipe. Congrats on not being one of the “I can only cook when I have a recipe in front of me” people. Looks edible to me for sure.
