As a whole, it's more than I usually eat. Not sure how it is diet food, but it sounds good. Minus the liver at lunch. My grandma loves liver, but just the thought is not appetizing to me at all.
Up next - What should Mary Duncan eat?
Can you imagine broiled liver? Yech! I'd never eat again!
ReplyDeleteWhat no pizza! Is sounds pretty healthy but too much like hospital food for me! As always...love the pics! Have a great week! Hugs, Coralie
ReplyDeleteI could do that one too, minus the liver. Though I have this weird obsession lately with trying it. My dad loves it, and I had it as a child and hated it, but loved the smell when my mom cooked it.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for more!

Sounds OK except for that liver! Eww.
