What's for Dinner?

lemon pepper fish and grilled veggies on the grill..yummy:)

Dinner was yummy tonight and it totally caught me offguard. It was like what we used to have many years ago.

We had:

- A rainbow salad (brocoli, cauliflower, carrots, red cabbage, tomatos, and cucumbers with lime juice and olive oil as dressing)
- Stuffed shells (manicotti? and some other cheeses)
- Baked bread
- Vanilla icecream with fresh strawberries for dessert

I'm happy to see when dinner is completely vegetarian so I can get a FULL meal. :)

Sloppy Joes

Baked Ham
Cheesy Au Gratin Potatoes
Cucumbers

Imagine that - we had steak for dinner tonight!!! (with mashed potatoes and spinach)

Logan I read at Pamela's Kitchen where you used 2 of the recipes from there..I am so glad you are finding some good ones..
Trev always posts good recipes too.

You guys are making me hungry!!!

Unfortuntely, I'm still at work (going on 12 1/2 hours!! :mad: ) waiting for this family to leave so I can go home and eat dinner before I pass out from exhaustion!!! I'll probably just go to bed.

Sorry, had to vent. These people were SUPPOSED to leave at 7:00 pm! (it's now 8:45 pm here) UGH!!! :mad:

Not feeling really hungry tonight, so just fixed a cheeseburger.
Reading others responses gives me great ideas for tomorrow.:)

Mac and cheese, mmm... :)

I should've gone to Kay's for dinner. The nachos weren't very good. :p

Been eating out lately, and eating leftovers, haven't cooked for a while. But tonight I made salmon with basil butter, homefried potatoes, and edamame (japanese-style steammed soybeans). It was yummy!

I fixed:

Cajun Turkey
Scalloped Potatos
and
Corn

Hey! We sick girls will gladly accept "Meals on Wheels from PT"!

I really haven't cooked since my mom went back to the hospital in March. just easy, odds and ends. Then with surgery, the guys were on their own. Recently, John and I have been invited out (his son is a gourmet cook) or eating out though I hate to spend the money, I hate spending the time cooking even more. What a nice excuse not to be able to stand on my feet for long. Plus, with all the stuff that's happened within 2 months, I haven't been hungry. Lost 20 pounds in 6 months.

I need to make something that lasts a few days so it can just be heated. Besides tomato sauces for pasta, meatloafs...anybody have any other suggestions? I can't cook anything different every night cause my brother gets home at 11p, so it has to be easy enough for him to warm up, Any website or ideas??? I can put John to work (not a bad cook himself-he makes a mean breakfast)

Sorry to ramble when all that was asked was a simple question! :p :rolleyes:

we had

cotolette alla milanese
puré
& sautéed veggies in a honey glaze.

How about Chicken Spaghetti? The recipe I have makes a humongous amount and I have 3/4's of it left over so I put it in small containers for Brad to take to lunch..usually atleast 4 generous servings left over...and its easy to make.

I also make Spicy Kielbasa Soup on a regular basis..you can make it in the crock pot and it will make 4 or 5 generous servings to freeze. I always keep some in the freezer to pull out for Brad's lunch when we don't have enough leftovers the night before.

I added the link in a previous post to Pamela's Kitchen but am posting these 2 recipes for you:

SPICY KIELBASA SOUP

kielbasa, sliced and each slice cut into fourths (or just use any polish style sausage)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium green or red bell pepper, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) chicken broth
1 can (15-ounces) black beans or kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) fire roasted crushed tomatoes*
1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 green onions, white and some green, chopped

Mix all ingredients together in your crockpot and cook on low for 10 hours


I will post the other one in the following post
