Where's the beef? Back on my table!

So, the great vegan experiment has come to an end.  We are carnivores and that is just how it is.    I enjoyed our experiment with the plant based world, and fully plan to put meat free selections on our family menu, but the meat is back!    I have no problem eating a veg diet, but it is just no fun to cook!

Tonight I made Buffalo Chicken Risotto.  It was HOT and tasty.    The risotto was cooked with celery and onion with a little bit of beer and a mixture of chicken broth, hot sauce, honey and worchestershire sauce.  At the end I stirred in some rotisserie chicken.  Quite tasty.     

We had decided to go carnivore again after I did my shopping for the week, so our other selections include Oven baked Mac and Cheese,  Tofu, chickpea and sundried tomato salad (this was a Wednesday night staple for a loooooong time when we were doing South Beach) and Veggie Fajitas.  To be honest with you, the fajitas are so good, I may never make fajitas with meat again.   Portobello mushrooms make it as meaty as it needs to be.  Yummy!

So now that meat is back, I am going to break into some new recipes I have and I am pretty excited, so stay tuned!
