What's for Dinner, Tues., Mar. 1, 2022
Curry mushroom butternut squash soup.
Tomato-spinach chicken sausages, made in the slow-cooker. I like to put them in a flour tortilla wrapper and serve with Dijon mustard.
Tossed green salad with all kinds of vegetables--carrot, green, yellow, and red pepper, radish, red onion, grape tomatoes, celery, and spicy ranch dressing. Ratz 'cuz my baby avocados still weren't ripe for today.
Decaf coffee and sugar-free chocolate toffee for dessert.

On another note, in planning for future salads, today I have started microgreens in the greenhouse and put peas in pots for pea tendrils to decorate and add variety to salads. In the microgreen planting, I have beet seeds which always make for a nice touch of color. I note in the weather forecast for March, NJ is looking to have a fairly mild coast into April.

finished off under the broiler. Yes, I fix these a lot - so fast and easy, and GOOD.
Made Rice Select Royal Blend rice (Texmati white, red, brown, and wild - cooked in the broth/drippings of the chicken
Broccoli crowns with a sprinkling of jack cheese.
The last, thank gawd, of the yellow cake with chocolate icing.
Now, does anyone think I can stay awake for the State of the Union address? 
and the folks around me are not the type to even say hello, much less want to eat my food. The good news is that my kids (son, DIL & granddaughter) come over on the weekend for lunch, so I do send a lot home with them.
If I don't have leftovers, I will just have to cook something else as I live alone. But you're right, I should not cook such large quantities. Better yet, I should not make desserts! 
ETA: the REAL problem is that I love to cook. Anytime I think I need to go dust or vacuum, I avoid it by cooking something. 
but I like browsing cookbooks even better!
If I halve my recipes, I can try even more recipes. 
The one thing I really hate is having something I don't really want, just because it's there and needs to be used up.
It's even better you can give yours to family. That would be the preferred solution, JMHO.
Always a good choice
All of the dinners sound good.
I'd given my daughter an Aerogarden a few years ago, and for Christmas, I got her some basil pods. They've produced vigorous plants and she's made pesto and a variety of salads. I'm going to start some sprouts soon Growing some sprouts and other greens is cheering
using ATK's recipe. I've stopped doing it any other way, and have even roasted my turkey the same way the last two years. You're right, it's the best chicken we've ever eaten, tender and juicy all the way through.
