Camping and our son being out of town and me being sick made meals a little less these months.
We had 4 ready to bake pizzas from Aldi. They were on sale, which made them a really good buy.

Lentil soup on the sides of a lot of lunches and dinners.

Goats cheese triangles: these are an experiment based on my favorite salad from Hutch’s that they don’t make anymore. So it’s goats cheese and sundried tomatoes and balsamic vinegar folded up in phyllo that was brushed with olive oil and baked. Pretty good, but my test was to get proportions, and I was too rushed. Opps. I’ll have to make them again.

Polenta with sundried tomatoes. I don’t remember what protein we had with it.
