I roasted a chicken and the older kids made potato Soup for dinner tonight. By the time I was hungry there was no potato soup and a picked over chicken carcass so I had some chicken in Caesar salad.
The chicken carcass is currently becoming broth in its lovely jacuzzi.

What I wanted versus what I ate and the approximate calorie counts. For what I ate it was good but those miracle noodles are super heavy on my stomach.

Miracle noodles with sautéed onion and portobello mushroom, kimchi, fried garlic, with pickled cucumbers and hard boiled eggs in lono life beef broth.

I bake mine inside of using the crockpot so the fat goes into the muscle and breaks it down a bit more. Corned beef is really just a preserved/pickled brisket so if brisket sits well for you then corned beef might as well. It’s about the same process as brining a poultry.
Fun fact- it’s called corned beef because of the large salt crystals (aka “corns”) once used to preserve the meat.

My most favorite soup is chicken carcass broth with barley and finely chopped veg in. I love to get the most out of a chicken.

Update on that salad. Ate a third and a kid pilfered the rest. 🤷‍♀️
Tonight’s dinner (pictured mid eating) is corned beef and cucumbers. I might eat a third piece of the corned beef and another cucumber slice (for a total of 2). I ate lunch super late so I’m really not hungry and it’s almost bedtime.

My food choices lately have been questionable at best but, SALAD! A huge salad. Probably like 600 calories for the whole thing (won’t finish it in one go) but I just wanted all the briny pickled things with lettuce, feta, and eggs.
