Hi 🙂 so this week was a hurricane which was crazy.
I also babysat a couple of nights so had dinner with the kids, which we did homemade pizzas.
Unfortunately one family of kids was not a fan of pizza making and it was a messy nightmare and nowhere near as good as the pizzas made at home!!
Okay, back to the photos. 🙂
Pictures one through three are from tonight’s eggplant parm! This is one of my favorite meals of all time- more than chicken or veal parm, and it takes about four hours to make because I slice the eggplant thin and do a lot of layers. It’s fried eggplant, homemade sauce, and mozz + parm layered together and baked.
Since it takes so long, I made another tray for the freezer and am so excited to know that on a busy day I have one of my favorite meals waiting for me with zero work!
Pictures four through six are of homemade pizzas ~ I made the dough and successfully used a pizza peel and stone without getting pizza all over my oven. It was AMAZING! We had plain cheese, Margherita, and BBQ Chicken and Jalapeño which was so good. 😊 tomorrow the kid I’m watching requested I make him BBQ chicken pizza so will be having it again (but we’re just using a sheet pan. I don’t trust a ten year old boy with a pizza peel) 😂
Photos seven and eight are of Char Siu Roast Pork. I really enjoyed this and my family enjoyed it even more! It was tasty and a nice change from smoked pork shoulder.
Either way, smoking wasn’t an option cause there was a hurricane out. 😮
Photo nine is roasted-garlic mashed potatoes. My mom made pot roast for my brother and dad (I don’t eat pot roast) but she requested my homemade mashed potatoes to go with it!
Photo ten is actually leftovers! I made BBQ Chicken with boxed mac and cheese one night, and yesterday I got home at 11 pm and was hungry. Reheated the chicken in the air fryer, made some jasmine rice, and mashed avocado with lime, red pepper flakes, garlic and salt. Delicious and healthy!
😊💖🩵❤️ Hope everyone who got hit with the hurricane is okay. My home sustained no damage, but about fifteen minutes away is destroyed. The island I live next to is in ruins. 🙏
