Tonight for dinner is Turkey Meatloaf, Mashed Cauliflower, yellow squash, zucchini and roasted broccoli
My meatloaf is pretty simple to make I try not to over do the flavor, i want my meat to taste like meat not filler, so I use 1 egg, some bread crumbs,ketchup, spicy mustard and that's it, I mix it well but never over working it, no one like a tough meatloaf.
Mashed Cauliflower is now one of my very favorite sides since I eat little to no carbs anymore,
to do this well you need fresh cauliflower, cut the head into small enough pieces that they boil evenly, bring the cauliflower to a boil, the cauliflower is done when it is soft and a fork enters the cauliflower easily, drain the cauliflower well, put the cauliflower back into the hot pan so some of the moisture cooks off, the mash it, I add sour cream and butter, and just a touch of horseradish, salt and pepper to taste.
Yellow squash and zucchini and broccoli all go in the oven at 400 degrees, till they are brown and evenly roasted, i add just a little bit of garlic and salt and pepper.
This is my partners favorite meal, my kids love it, I love it and in total it is only 5 carbs!

March 28th
I have gotten so busy in my life that I have completely forgotten about my blog. I have forgotten how much I love to share what I have made every day for my wonderful and ever changing family.
I haven't really cooked much in the past months, tax money throw my cooking game off, I eat out way more than I should because I really love the look of over stuffed cabinets and freezers. I also look at all this food that I just spent way more money than any one person should spend on food and I don't have a clue what to make because the choices are so many!
I have started a new life style and my cooking has changed with it, I have kidney disease and my doctor has put me on a very strict low oxalate diet which has completely rocked my world, but I have over come the food prison that the life style change had put me in, my blog is going to be new and improved to show people that living inside a harsh food prison is not something that has to happen that there are good meals that can come out of a restrictive diet!!
thank you to all those who follow and support my love of food, I promise to keep everyone in my food world again!!!
