I took beef stew with me on this trip. My wife made it with big chunks of patotoes, onions and carrots. I finished the big bowl of it in less than five minutes.

This will actually be cooking tomorrow but I did the shopping this afternoon:

My lasagna casserole.
This time I'm going to chop up a red onion instead of the usual white onion, I'll be including a small jar of mushrooms, and instead of incorporating all the normal amount of mozzarella I'm adding some ricotta cheese too.

I'm making a mushroom, tofu, and veggie stir fry tonight served on quinoa instead of rice.
