Day 2, And All Is Well

Braeakfast was;

1 egg, omelet style, with green onion and cream cheese

Hot apples

Bran cereal with grape butter and milk

Mint Tea

The egg omelet was really good. I expect I will be buying cream cheese more in the future when this challenge ends. I used a 3:1 ratio on the bran cereal, it still needed cooked down some but just for a couple minutes.

Lunch was;

Vegetable soup

Biscotti with cream cheese

Bread and butter pickles

Walnuts with caramel sauce

The walnuts had a few bits of shell, which is always extra annoying to find. The soup was average, I added whole wheat and soy beans to the broth I made some months ago. I don't really remember what was in it exactly, I know there was corn, tomato, turnips, and green beans. The biscotti are a little grueling, they are not quite sweet or crunchy enough.

Dinner was;

Mashed potatoes

Green beans with garlic and tomato

Radish green salad

3 sauerkraut pierogis

Chow-chow relish

The salad consisted of radish greens, radishes, carrots, and fresh tomatoes. I made a dressing from white vinegar, elderberry oil, dried parsley, dried basil, and salt. The radishes have been holding up pretty well in the mild winter. The roots are getting a bit woody but the greens are still good, and not at all hot. It was a good salad.

The green beans were received in trade, they were also good, once a sprinkle of salt was added.

I picked the 4 smallest potatoes, boiled them, added a splash of milk, and mashed them up. They were also quite good.

The weakest link in the dinner were the pierogis. They are a little too thick in the dough department. The middle part is good but the edges are like a job to eat. I will definitely roll them out using the noodle maker next time.
