🍽️ 🍜 Tonight’s supper: chicken schnitzel on a bed of arugula with honey mustard BBQ sauce for dipping. If I had bought all the chicken breasts the recipe called for they would have cost over $40!! I drew the line and there was still plenty 😅.

🍽️ 🍜 At Mercato restaurant in Calgary last evening. The lighting was poor for these pics, but the food was outstanding: rigatoni alla gricia with sides of mushrooms and prosciutto-wrapped grilled asparagus. Savoured and loved every bite 😋

🍽️ 🍜 Feeling proud of the work that has enabled me to “shop” from my freezer today. I’ve got cilantro pesto, roasted red pepper hummus, pear sauce (all homemade) and a piece of garlic coil.
