I took an Ina Garten (she's great) recipe and used some ideas from a Jenny Jones video to make stuffed cabbage. Easy, peasy and great comfort food. Enough for 4 meals for the 2 of us. Froze half of it.

I can't wait till cherries come in season. I'm going to make Claire Saffitz's cherry biscuit cobbler. Cherry Biscuit Cobbler Recipe | Bon Appetit.

Thanks. I love stuffed cabbage. I looked up this recipe and will try it soon.

Ina Garten has a new cookbook titled Modern Comfort Food. But, alas, the publishing date is in the fall. I wish she would speed it up. Many of us could use it right now.

The info on Amazon tells all about what will be in it — comfort food, for sure. I put the book on pre-order so I don’t forget about it.

Last week I decided to make tuna casserole without noodles to reduce the carbs. Afterwards I realized I had re-invented Tuna a la King.

I've been on something of a corned beef kick; sometimes as a meal but mostly to make hash. I love it with lots of onion and cabbage. I've also discovered there's such a thing as canned chopped potatoes; they have a firm texture and are easy to crisp up before adding to the hash.

I'm stereotypically old and required to eat soup, so make a batch of cream of vegetable (broccoli, zucchini, cauliflower, tomato, asparagus, carrot) a couple of times a week. Sometimes I'll bust out with chicken tortilla, woot!

A jar of BERTOLLI ( Parmesan & Romano ) " 2 " Hot Italian Sausages ( Publix) simmer over low heat for awhile, I then poured over Penne that I prepared 2 days ago.

Total time 38 minutes. Result Delish.

PS: I got the BERTOLLI @ Publix BOGO

The recipe is the recipe plain to see, copy it, and the result. Delish.

As for the sausage I chose Hot over Mild but hey have one of each. That gives me an idea for next week. Thinking Shells.

I like to cook, but am not into fussy. I like to keep it simple and use as few pots/pans as possible. Our “corona cuisine”:

We start almost every dinner with a salad, either traditional greens or caprese.

Over the last month I’ve made two rib roasts in the oven, two different BBQ briskets in the crock pot, simple one pot beef stroganoff using ground beef and sour cream, creamy curry chicken with naan, Italian chicken, homemade meatballs with red sauce over pasta, baked pork chops, Italian sausage and farfalle pasta, lemon cream chicken, burritos, sloppy joe. We buy cheap cheese pizzas from Aldi and doctor them up ourselves, and they are as good as what you get from most pizza joints around here.

There are only 2 of us, and these dinners usually make enough for a second or even third meal.

Bon apetit!

I have an instant pot and have been making soups (15 bean, pea soup and I varied the way I have made them, adding more veggies). Love my instant pot. I also make my steel cut oats in the instant pot every 3 day. Going to make chickpeas in it later.
