What’s for Lunch?

[Karlon]

I made lentil soup today and to go along with it, I made a caramelized onion, spinach, and Gouda bread. This bread is so incredible. After I tried it, I heard a loud crack of thunder and so I said, "This bread is so good, even the sky had to shout!"

Me too! And I didn’t even stretch today like I was going to and even then, my legs don’t hurt today, even though I walked almost 4 times than my first day walking this week

I'm thankful you suggested these walks!!

Chicago style deep dish pizza. This takes a while to make, but it's worth it. It's soooooo good! Perfect weekend treat. I think this is the best pizza I've made yet. I used Sally McKenney's recipe for this (https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/how-to-make-chicago-style-deep-dish-pizza/), it's amazing. Pièce de résistance!

Burrito bowl. I think this might be the best bowl I've made so far. It consists of seasoned ground turkey, homemade pico de gallo, pinto beans, avocado slices, and red/brown/purple rice...

Stuffed mushrooms and steamed asparagus. So much yums...

Is that a specific pasta? I think ziti is flat-edged, and penne has a sharp edge, so I guess they are kinda different.

I made a pot of lean ground turkey chili for this chilly day, plus cornbread waffles to go along with it. Yes, I'm in a waffle mood today...

I'm in a waffle mood.... every day. That or French toast, but realistically, an omelette is probably the better choice.
