What did you have for late morning snack today?

I have been kind of sort of grazing all day today. No big meals to speak of. I worked at the flaky care in the morning and at Guitar Center in the afternoon. For late morning snack I had about two inches (measured by height in the can) of leftover Progresso pot roast soup. To add to the volume and enhance the taste, I added a bit of water, a bit of olive oil, some soy sauce, some pepper, some zucchini, and some jalapino peppers. It as really good, and kept me going until early afternoon. I'll attach a photo of my soup as I was cooking it up this morning. Did you get creative in the kitchen today?

No, I was not creative in the kitchen today. I was tired of grocery shopping to cook something special.

Sadly, no. Not really. I got a late start cooking, and got busy doing other things. but I did eat my Mac and cheese.

I will get creative. It's a long time we do not have a Martini with appetizers and this is what my husband asked for tonight. Let me see what I can prepare as appetizers.

@TheHorse - I loved so much our Martini and appetizers yesterday evening. I chilled the Martini in the freezer for a while, exactly what I needed.

@wolfgirl569 I bet they're the modern version of what we used to call "Sugar Crisps," I can still hear Sugar Bear singing "Can't get enough of those Sugar Crisps..."

For dessert/snack yesterday I had a lemon muffin with some decaf coffee. You certainly know how to stretch a meal and make it your own!

Heh. Like @TheSojourner, I like to be creative with what I have. She does it at a slightly higher level, though.

@TheSojourner I think I'll make some (frozen) Indian lamb curry for lunch and throw in some jalapinos for color and texture contrast. They're not hot at all and don't (to me) have that much taste.

@TheSojourner Oh, I use fresh.

I would probably enjoy it,even if it's very different from bacon and eggs. Would I have tea or coffee on the side?
5 May
Wow, this looks very delicious and healthy. I would add a few chicken bits with nice breadcrumb sticks. Love it..

Nope, not very creative here. Your soup sounds good... except for the peppers. Youch...those are too hot for me.

The lunch sounds good. Do you flavor the noodles? Or let the pork chop "do the talking"?
