I've posted a lot of my favorite recipes on the recipe forum. I posted the pizza casserole last week and I just posted the Thai chicken thighs in Peanut sauce there.
I find I need to cook a lot post surgery. Prepared foods have too many carbs and calories. Plus having interesting choices helps me resist the pizza and lasagna and other temptations that I don't want to eat.
best wishes,
Carol
