My kids “mystery box” ‘ed me tonight, so this was dinner- cheesy stuffing waffles (crispy, delicious… recommend), air fryer buttermilk chicken legs, Caesar roasted broccoli, balsamic cucumber and Tomato salad. I also used about a tbsp of BBQ Sauce for my chicken leg
Gonna use the leftover waffles for Breakfast sandwiches this week
Waffles recipe - 1tbsp butter, 1/2 onion finely diced, box of stovetop or similar stuffing mix, 2 eggs, 4oz cheese, vegetable broth to moisten
Sautéed onion. In butter until lightly browned. Add a bit of broth to get up any goodness in the bottom of the pan. Pour into bowl with stuffing mix
Preheat waffle maker
blend eggs with cheese until smooth. Mix into stuffing mix. Add broth until soupy. Don’t worry. After it sits a few minutes it thickens. I think I used 3 cups for 2 boxes.
spray waffle maker and scoop in stuffing mix. Used about a cup a waffle. Cook for 6-8 minutes until crispy and delicious.

k, i didn't feel like washing a bowl (all were dirty in the dishwasher) so i just ate this approx ½ cup of ice cream straight out of the container.
yes, im an animal...lolololzzzz
160 calories for ½ a cup of this yummer ice cream.

I did! 😂 I couldn’t stand the thought of eating it anymore so a kid volunteered to eat it. 🤷‍♀️
Ended up eating this instead- 185 calories

Went to lunch with my mom today. This was the leftovers along with the untouched tortillas I took home. A kid told me it was “a whole dang meal” 😂
it was chicken with mushrooms, onions, spinach and melted cheese with rice, pico and sour cream.

Oh no! Sincere condolences @Starwarsandcupcakes ❤️

Thank you. It’s been a rough couple of months for us to say the least. I appreciate all the thoughts and prayers and the amount of support family and friends have reached out with as well.

Apparently my body is just stuck in grief mode right now (my sister passed away this past weekend after a lengthy hospital stay) which sucks because I *know* I should be eating but it makes me feel sick. This was dinner and dessert.

Dinner- 6” multigrain roasted chicken with fresh mozzarella, banana peppers, tomatoes, double pickles, and spinach with the sweet onion teriyaki sauce on the side. My youngest even helped by taking a big bite!
Dessert- Mississippi mud brownies- I took one bite and I was done.

Olive and herb Focaccia made with store bought dough. Everyone loved it and I ate a small area that I deemed was “the crust” 🤣

So sorry to hear about your
Sister. That is awful. Heart goes out to you and your family.
