Made a beef stew in the Instapot last night and tonight I have a wild game feed for the outdoors club I am an. I am making Venison Bacon sliders.

That's the lemony soup recipe. We had a ton of chicken broth leftover from Thanksgiving. It's a staple in our house so we buy the tetra-packs a lot, but I kinda went overboard at Sam's this year. This used up a box and a half of broth.
That sounds like a lot. But my family ate it up. Seconds for most and leftovers for the wife and me the next day. My picky eater kids both like it a lot and ask for it again every time I make it. My son doesn't like most soups we make, but they're my wife's favorite winter food so we make them once or twice each week. If there's one he likes (as opposed to he'll just eat it and be grumpy) I'll make it more often. And as long as the wife makes me a sandwich with the soup I'm fine (I jest, I jest).
It calls for cooked spaghetti squash. I've done it in the microwave, but I find with this recipe, if I roast it in the oven (cut in half, seeds removed) face down with some water in the sheet pan at 350-375, by the time I'm ready to add it to the soup after all the other prep of cooking the chicken, etc., it's ready to go. It will cook a little in the soup, so you want it to be just short of your preferred texture.
Spaghetti squash is one of our favorite things. My wife is T1D so noodles are not ideal, and we can sub the squash in a lot of stuff without it being a super hassle to cook, though it is a bit more work than throwing dried noodles in some boiling water. Plus it has a subtle flavor that's really good. A little evoo, fresh herbs, pepper and Parm (another staple for us, the good stuff, not the green cylinder) make a great side out of it.
Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.
I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.
Pizza night! This week's 'Stupid Pizza of the Week' starts with a white bbq sauce, then we add hamburger, pecanwood smoked bacon, mozzarella, and fried onions after its baked.
Have a friend Xmas party tonight. Im providing the meat.

Chicken Pho. Made the stock with chicken thighs, sugar, fish sauce, ginger, cinnamon, star anise, cloves, mushrooms, snow peas.and cilantro stems. simmered for two hours and strained. I reserved the mushrooms and snow peas and added them to the pho later. . Rice noodles, bean sprouts, cilantro leaves, Thai basil leaves, green onions, and lemon slices served at the table. Some Thai chiles also for a little heat. Yumm.
last night made the chicken/lemon/chicken stock/spaghetti squash soup that someone, jd?, mentioned. Not bad. Tonight eggplant lasagna, our traditional solstice meal of things from our garden; no woodchuck this year, coyotes must have got them all, not that I am complaining

That's funny. I made it last night at the family's request. I think it's not bad, too. Not my favorite, but different and good.

I don't have a drool inducing picture but I did a roasted turkey breast, ranch dressing mashed potatoes, gravy, sweet peas, butter beans, and biscuits.
We had a duck. Cut into quarters and brined in salt, orange/pineapple juice with garlic and blk pepper for 2 1/2 hours. Steamed gently with carrots and onions for 45 minutes and finished off skin side down in a preheated cast iron skillet in a blazing oven for 15 minutes. While the duck was steaming I went out to the garden, scraped off some snow on one of our raised beds and got a couple of handfuls of Russian Red kale to cook in the duck fat left in the steamer. Going to be white beans and duck with escarole from the garden tonight.

However don't hate on the cooking. You should take cooking classes. If not cereal and beans are always easy to make.
