Hmm, the stupid ten dollars worth of soup I bought at Safeway during my crazy shopping trip actually turned out to be pretty good. Both of them turned out to be very filling, pleasantly spicy and flavored, and just good eating. One was a chicken tortilla soup, and the other a crab and corn chowder. The latter, especially, I enjoyed. They were still way too expensive, but I might still get it again once in a great while.
Tonight I remembered to cook the chicken I bought last week. I used some of my store bought pesto and thinned it with more olive oil, and then broiled the cutlets with that. I ate one of the cutlets with my dinner, and it was delicious -- apparently I got the timing just right for once. There were four more that I put away, to eat cold or slice up for wraps. I also made a rice pilaf with slow-cooked onions, which is one of my favorite dependable recipes from How to Cook Everything, and that turned out great, too. And even more leftovers there! Mmmmm.
Tonight is very good for my cooking self-esteem, apparently.
