What did you have for dinner II?

Lentil Soup w/Hot Italian Sausage
Dessert: Pepperidge Farm Double Chocolate Milanos

I’m a fan. I make my lentil soup with Spanish chorizo.

Those double chocolate Milanos are crack cookies. If the open bag is near me, I will eat the entire contents. I have to apportion a serving, close the bag, and return it to the cupboard before taking my first bite.

The Milanos: "The cupboard! Haha, he'll never look for us here!" :p
 
Stir-fried Mongolian beef and green onions with a side of blistered garlic green beans with toasted almonds, crisp-fried shallots, garlic, hoisin sauce, and a tiny bit of chili garlic paste

edit to add: omg, the kitchen, lol. And we just cleaned it top to bottom this morning

BTW- I ate the entire bag of Milanos. Yes, crack cookies is correct.😋

Putting them back in the cupboard does not work for me

Love lentils, especially when they’re properly seasoned as above! Double thumbs-ups for tripling the garlic cloves. Or Clives, lol.
