Hi, I'm new here :)

Sherril and MargD,

However, if they choose not, than they have to feed themselves.

It's a little too late in the game to try that with hubby, and it would bring me far more trouble in the end than it's worth.

My son is coming late this evening and spending the weekend!!
Now, he pretty much always ate whatever I made while growing up, unless it was something he absolutely hated (we all have foods we dislike) and he hasn't changed much. He's not vegetarian, but he can eat like one (except for the tofu), but he grew up with my high-carb vegetarian cooking and lots of PBJ sandwiches. lol He likes big salads and edamame beans in their pods, so maybe I'll make some as a snack.

I'm excited that I found the Gardein chicken fillets - I hope they are decent tasting, as I've never tried anything like it. I've only had the Boca or Mornginstar chicken fillets on a bun. One of the meals I'm planning is real chicken breasts for DH and DS, and I'll be able to have one the soy ones! I'll probably also make salmon for DS - hubby hates fish and he's not *that* fond of chicken either, but tough. My son is a veggie eater and a whole wheat person and he can knock off my organic breads and skim milk too! He loves protein shakes. He has the best of and the worst of our eating habits, but at least he was exposed to healthy foods (and vegetarian foods) during his first 20 yrs.

We need to do some preparation and furniture rearranging today before he gets here, so I had better get back to it.

MargD,
I haven't seen the megathread on the noodles, but I'll besure to check it before I try them. They seem to be well-liked from the little I have read here, which is why I went ahead with the purchases.

I was thinking of using them as a pasta substitute for marinara sauce and meatballs, but stir-fry would work great too - I've always loved stir-fries. Thanks
