Meanwhile I should warn you in advance that just about every topic on this site is met with sarcastic responses. It's nothing against you personally.

Thanks for the headsup. I'll grow a thicker skin.

This is how I broke the fast yesterday:

-Package of Velveeta shells and cheese
-For a cheesier flavor, I added additional shredded cheese
-For a little crunch, I crumbled in some nacho cheese doritos
-Touch of Tapatio red pepper sauce

Washed down with a code red Mountain Dew

(And then took a three mile walk along the coast, which burned off maybe 10% of the calories)

Here's one of our favorites to get us started:

Tomato Basil Soup:
2 cans diced tomatoes (14.5 ounce)
1/2 cup half-and-half
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
pepper to taste (we like lots!)
1 1/2 teaspoon diced garlic
1 Tablespoon onion
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
2-3 teaspoons basil

Throw all of these ingredients together in a blender, blend until smooth.
Throw it in a pot, warm it up until it's bubbling gently.

This sounds delicious. Unfortunately, Danimal would never eat it. He doesn't think soup can be a meal, even if you add a sandwich or salad with it.

This turned out very well yesterday, I shall be making it again:

-Sautee an onion, sliced mushrooms, and diced chicken breast in olive oil
-When fully cooked, add about 6 oz. sour cream
-When bubbling, add about 4 oz shredded cheeses
-When bubbling, add roasted red pepper tomato alfredo sauce (mine was out of a jar, but if you know how to make your own, more power to you)
-In the meantime cook 16 oz. of pasta, and when finished, stir it into the sauce.

Très Magnifique!

Today I had a sliced roast beef sandwich for lunch, but instead of using plain old boring sliced bread, I used focaccia peppers and cheese bread. Mmm.

Dessert was brownies from a Ghirardelli mix, topped with nutella.
