Eggs, sausage, and potatoes. I'll probably cook some garlic spinach to serve on the side.

Tonight is homemade baking powder biscuits, black bean soup and a salad made with mixed green with homemade ranch dressing.

And YUM to the maduros! When I was in grad school there was a Cuban restaurant in town and I LOVED the fried maduros. I also have a friend from Venezuela and we would make them when we had arepas with black beans, cotija, and queso fresco...YUM!

Even though he's Italian, my dad was born and spent his childhood in Venezuela, and he remembers eating maduros and arepas every day for lunch--wonderful food memories for him!

We're having eggs and sausage. I was going to make pork chops but don't feel good today and want eggs. So that's what's for supper!

And I love these "what's for supper" threads. They give me so many ideas of future meals!!

I'll remember that, and when I put it in the family collection I'll title it "Arroz a la Mimi" instead!

LOL Patty, you had my brain working overtime there for a few minutes. Sorry to hear about your "code" -- hope the chicken soup makes you all better!
