Taste and texture, like the best hamburger ever, only juicy and wrapped in the loving arms of mashed potatoes and gravy.
Today I had Caesar salad, bit of a late lunch that's going to segue into an early supper.

Ok. That would work for the gut bucket husband. I'll go check the recipes here.

Lean ground beef, doesn't have to be extra lean, but if you use regular there will be more grease. We get those 3 grades in the store here.
I think I diced up a few mushrooms and threw them in as well; it isn't an exact science. Did I forget to mention the onion - oh hell... mix in some diced onion according to taste. I hope that's all I missed.

I had salad. A little cheese grated over it and a nice piece of buttered Sobeys Belgian bread.

Re: Lunchtime Choices

Leftover supper and a bit of this and that. Radishes and avocados need a little salt.

I knew someone must still be eating this but it isn't me or my family. We give this away in our weekly food baskets to the 'deserving' down here in Mississippi through my church. It is one of staples in the food basket along with mac 'n cheese, peanut butter, canned tuna, cereal, soup, canned veggies, vienna sausages, spaghetti sauce and pasta noddles, cereal, toilet paper and frozen loaves of bread.

I asked her if she could make a small soup like she's done before with a shank. So of course, just to please me

, she picked up some more beef from Walmart and made a huge pot.

We all had some for lunch. I had some of this toasted with mine. Really good bread. I had a thick piece from the end.

One of my favorite breads, that and their square danish pumpernickle. Just with butter and jam is my favorite breakfast. Unfortunately, not sold here in the south of the US.

That brand is appearing everywhere here with the bigger supermarkets having 4 or 5 'grain' variations. I hope it's not another of those trial runs that end.
