Amanda the Great by Amanda El-Dweek for March 12, 2021

Be happy someone is cooking….you can always volunteer to make salads.

Wishbone™ makes the salad.

Picky, picky.

Side dishes add exponentially to the planning needed. That can be a problem to those of us unused to the using the kitchen.

Peas fresh from the microwave.

Side dishes are for the assistant chef to prepare.

Yes, Amanda, you have to find your fun where you can. So thankful my husband likes to cook, but this is exactly how he cooks. He makes something really great and you are on your own if you want anything with it. I’m fine with that. Like Teto85 said, throw some frozen vegetabes in the microwave.

Have to admit I’ve heard of Beef Wellington but haven’t ever eaten it or even seen it. Looked it up and it does look great (except for the pate). It does seem like it would be a big undertaking to make. Dan must love to cook which would be handy if you don’t. Side dishes for me with this would be wild rice and asparagus.

You need a big chocolate cake to go with it.
