My daughter and I make similar dishes when we're home alone but we always add tomato puree and sour cream or cream cheese. But yeah dishes like these are often yummy and you don't have a lot of pots to wash afterwards!
Also I admit that I often cheat and add in bouillon cubes to give it an extra kick

You guys know i cook for my father. Last Christmas they mentioned in passing they gave some of the food to a friend who isn't well off and who just had surgery so she was a bit incapacitated. Long story short, now I'm cooking for her as well as my father and daughter.
Mashed potatoes and cauliflower in bechamel.
Chicken and vegetables stir fry.
This was my Sunday afternoon

Continuing the work of my late grandmother. Shecwas 'W'ealthy when ww2 started but when people were reduced to eating grass, she started to cook and / or buy food for half the village. As it turns out thecwar shouldn't have lasted another year because mostbof the money was gone. I try do do the same in my own modest way.
Our Christmas tradition is that our kids invite friends who cannot celebrate with their family for whatever reason. Doesn't matter if we know them anyone under my roof will find food and safety and leave with leftovers. Our kids best friends might as well be adopted for practical purposes.

Mind you, I don't just cook because I like it, or because people need food. I also cook as therapy. If I've had a frustrating day at work, or like yesterday I have the feeling that the world's insanity is getting to me and I'm getting angry without being able to do anything, I start cooking. It helps me clear my mind. I put on a spotify playlist, start chopping and after an hour or 2, I feel better. I may not have solved any of the world's problems, but I made food. In some very marginal way, I've made the world a better place for at least someone.
Yesterday shortly after midnight I ran out of ingredients and decided to call it. Technically I still had meat for spaghetti sauce but it would take far too long to cool down.

I've stumbled across a recipe website that has a large collection of fantasy themed dishes. LOTR. Norse mythology, Harry Potter, Neverland, and Clue are just some of the themes. Dishes are also arranged by Holiday, Main ingredient and breakfast, lunch etc.
I'm trying a few of them, this morning will be carrot cake pancakes with orange cream cheese glaze. I'll try to get some pics of those.
I've made the sausage apple and sage bread pudding which was good. Soon, I'll be making maple roasted acorn squash with cranberry sauce and whiskey glazed onions with bacon and bleu cheese.
Let me know if you'd like a link to the site.
not the bet pic, the plate is a bit busy. Was yummy.

I can imagine it could be overpowering. I believe the recipe called for both fresh and rubbed but I just had rubbed on hand.

The drop down list of themes is extensive and I had to shrink my page to allow me to see all of them.
I will be trying many more of their recipes.

That looks great. Tbh 14 per pound would not be considered overly expensive in Belgium
Pastrami is weird btw. For some reason I don't like it. I like all sorts of cured / smoked meat but pastrami just kinda feels weird. Like too far to be smoked, but not far enough that it's well done. Idk
