As I continue to get moved/settled into my new digs, Menu Mondays and Wine Me Wednesdays are on a bit of a hold. The kitchen is mostly ready to go (pictures will be shared eventually). I've unpacked/washed/put away the dishes and bake-ware, moved in 2 wire shelves for added storage, filled my filtered water pitcher and stocked the ever-important wine rack with an assortment of whites, reds and blushes. Once I find a decent set of pots and pans, figure out where to put my microwave, and move in a few more pieces of furniture, the kitchen will be all set and a new challenge can begin.
Having no pots or pans should not prove to be too big of a problem in the short term (and I intend for it to be short term), I still have my bake-ware and a crock pot and there are plenty of dishes out there that require no stove-top cooking. Salads, crockpot soups and stews, pizzas, breads, and more can be cooked or created without the use of the stove.
Now the challenge is to find recipes that can be easily converted to feed just one person, on a budget, with the occasional serving left over for a next day lunch. Time to get started!
