Tonight was roasted chicken (well rooster he was getting annoying), fresh baked bread, smashed taters (from dehydrated taters from last year) and (yes it was frozen and yes it was cut that way by me) corn from last years garden.
So basically everything but the butter on the bread was from the homestead.
Chicken tomato chow yuk ... And a grilled cheese sandwich on the side ... Poured the left over tomato sauce over rice ... Now for a cuppa joe and off to bed ...

Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white government official; "You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."
The Chief nodded in agreement.
The official continued; "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"
The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then calmly replied.. "When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water. Women did all the work, Medicine Man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex."
Then the chief leaned back and smiled; "Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."
In an effort to find a way to enjoy pizza again I decided to get some inspiration from the Diabetes forum I am on. They have a gazillion recipes and I bookmarked a bunch on pizza options. I made a pita pizza with 263 calories, 27 g of carbs and only 11 g of fat! It had pizza sauce, 2% lowfat shredded mexican blend cheese, turkey pepperoni, black olives, pineapple, jalapenos and roasted red bell peppers. It actually crisped up in the toaster oven (400 at 15 minutes) and was pretty tasty!

One way that I have made pizza before is by using low carb taco shells, using spaghetti sauce (instead of pizza sauce) it has less sugar, a healthy cheese, and toppings. I believe I cooked it at 300 until the cheese was melted. It was very very tasty and low in carbs too.
Oh I totally watch ingredients. I used turkey pepperoni, lowfat 2% milk cheese and a good sauce. If you compare my pita pizza to a 6 inch personal pizza you would bug your eyes out! I was also thinking of trying the thin bagels they make and do a appetizer version of that as well. I'll have to look into those taco shells though. I can make some skirtsteak tacos with that cheese and some lettuce and sauce.
I need some cheap food inspirations *damn unexpected bills taking all of our money*! But I'm thinking of making some kind of casserole tonight. Just don't know what. Maybe chicken and stuffing bake or beef taco bake. Hmmm.....
