I made a meatloaf tonight. wasn't that great... BBQ and lemon sounded better on paper than it tasted.

I think sizzling chicken and cheese. But now being back in school the best I'll be able to do is pasta perhaps :frown:

Jerk Chicken on Saturday. Jerk pork tomorrow (a good amount of left-over sauce from the chicken, so I'm marinating a piece of pork in it).

Macaroni & cheese with stewed tomatoes, again.

Mac&cheese
- 2 C macaroni, dry - cook normally, in boiling water

- 8oz mozzarella
- 4oz cheddar

Dice cheese into small pieces, or shred with some kind of grater.

"Sauce"
- 2 C milk
- 2 T flour
- 2 T butter
Heat until butter melts, and stir thoroughly.

Mix all of this together, and bake at 350°F for 40 minutes. I think a 2-2.5 qt container should hold it all, but I use something larger for mixing.
I bake it for the first 25 minutes with the bowl covered, and the last 15 minutes with it off.

Stewed tomatoes: I use store brand canned stewed tomatoes, as they taste just like the homemade stuff my mom would make, and they're cheap.
I drain and compress the liquid out of them, then feed the whole can into a blender, as the tomato chunks are pretty large.

I feel like I should make mac and cheese like this one day. Usually, I just make pasta or pork chop/chicken with some spices or some kind of sauce and just add some veggies around it, either frozen or just raw.

Yesterday made damn good chili (sirloin steak cubes, habanero's for kick, brown sugar to make a bit sweeter) for dinner last night and food for next few days.

Made eggs, bacon, and toast for breakfast yesterday and waffles the morning before.
