What's for dinner?

Mom made some pasta salad last week so i've come up with a few different ways to eat it as the idea of eating cold food wasn't very appealing to me.

we had a last container of chicken a la king in the freezer which i took portions of and heated it up to get it hot but also to get the texture back to more normal - it gets rather strange and spongy in the freezer, but a few minutes in the microwave and you'd never think anything had happened to it. i'd warm that up and then stir in some pasta salad to make it a more substantial meal. and Mom had some with her mushroom onion soup - i guess i've taught her some new tricks.

Sheet pan Balsamic glazed salmon with roasted cabbage, sweet peppers and cherry tomatoes. Quick, easy and pretty darn tasty!

Tacos. Easy and quick. I didn't feel like doing much after hauling chicken feed and making sure they were good for a couple days in case in floods too much between the house and pens

Chicken thighs - recipe is loosely based on Tuscan Chicken. Made a couple substitutions but it's looking pretty good. Roasted brussels sprouts (thanks FJ!) and mashed potatoes. It'll take us a couple days to eat up the potatoes because we each only have a half-cup, but sometimes the carbs are worth it!

Toss up....turn 1/2 eaten baked chicken into pot pie & stock or make chili . Prob work up chicken. Always tomorrow -- chili can wait & chicken taking up frig space!! Decision! Plus other things to do outside.
