What's For DINNER Tonight?

[chandab]

We had frozen pizza tonight.

One of my favourites ^ There are a lot of really good frozen pizzas now, no need for carryout and ready when you feel like eating.

We have an over abundance of eggs. I boiled about a dozen and a half yesterday. (Why does that make the house smell so bad???) Hubby will make his famous deviled eggs for church supper tonight. And we had egg salad sandwiches with chips for dinner last night. I must admit, I love egg salad. I never think to make it because I feel guilty having sandwiches for dinner, but every now and again I bite the bullet and we'll have a grilled sandwich of some kind or, like last night, egg salad. Gosh but it was wonderful.

Now I've got to get baking and make a chocolate sheet cake for church supper. It's supposed to be our annual "cast iron supper" where they build a roaring fire and everyone cooks in their cast iron pots but with all this rain, I don't think that's gonna happen.

Hopefully, I'll be getting some crockpot chicken thing going soon, and if not then tomorrow (boneless / skinless chicken, cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix, parsley, cooking wine, and sliced mushrooms). I love that kind of thing because it's easy, and with the sides I plan to fix, total comfort food.

I made grilled chicken and cheese sandwiches last night. Then we just snacked on some popcorn later.

Tonight my Mom and sister and theirs are coming over. I have a beef sirloin tip roast in the slocooker. And some cheesy potatoes in the other slocooker. Then I am going to make some mix veggies and some biscuit. I made a sheet cake too. Even decorated it with my "injured" hand. Well, did ok up to a point and then suddenly-OWWW! - had to change to the right hand- did ok. It wasn't fancy anyway. I did the borders first, then wrote and then some rosebuds -that's when the hand went. I think partly because I had got down low on icing in the bag so I was squeezing it smaller and tighter. I imagine the muscles protested by then too. Not used to working too much yet. I can type two handed now too-but I feel the muscles getting fatiqued doing this too.

Tomorrow might my son and his fiance are supposed to be taking us out for supper. Haven't heard where yet.

As we are approaching winter and I seem to live on home made soups during winter, I got the soup pot out yesterday and made a BIG pot of Vegie soup. Any vegies you have in the fridge/Freezer work well. I just add Vegie stock and a couple of cans of chopped tomatoes heaps Of fresh and dried herbs and let it simmer for an hour or so. Then whats not eaten goes into the freezer for when I have one of those "Cant be bothered" nights.

Im sure we all have them

My son took H and I to supper for Mother's Day to the Lone Star Steak House. His fiance and the two kids came too. It was nice. Had my usual for there. The 6 oz. bacon wrapped sirloin, garlic mashed potatoes and a salad. Yummy!

Going to have potato soup with ham tonight. And cherry cobbler for dessert. BBQ's tomorrow night with baked beans and veggie.

 

[Ryan Johnson]

Got home from work late last night, by the time I went out and fed and checked on the horses I had the "Cant be bothered" So had Maccas.

Tonight I think Ill use what ever Vegies I have in the Fridge and make a roasted Vegie Omelette and have it with some Garlic Bread.

 

[Performancemini]

Ok Ryan. So I was going to ask 'what are Maccas', since I am from the U.S. But this time I decided to look it up first. I laughed! It's MCDONALD'S folks! Neat! The 'Golden Arches' are everywhere.

I think baked beans w/ half smoke hotdog like thinks (not sure what they're called and too lazy yo go look!). Will add in lots of grilled onion and bell peppers and make us some tossed salad, too.

We are celebrating Mother's Day tomorrow with lunch for my mom at my sister's house. Tonight for that, I'm making broccoli salad (with raisins & bacon), a pasta salad with Italian dressing and tons of cucumber, colored bell peppers, and tomatoes, and a three bean salad (cheating with that one as it's canned but yummy). I'll be bringing doughnuts from the bakery we love and Robin, my sister, is making chicken salad with grapes and fresh bread.

We had tacos in soft flour shells, rice and beans. I don't know what I did differently, but they were incredibly good tonight. (maybe I was just hungry?) I don't like Mexican rice so I make saffron rice, instead.

 

[chandab]

Made Doritos Taco Salad for lunch today, I'll probably have it for supper too, but Shayne will probably have the left over beef and noodles.

 

[Performancemini]

Lino's Pizza Special with their Italian salad. Tomorrow night is supposed to be Salisbury steak. I am going to do it on the cheap and just use hamburger patties, instant mashed potatoes, make gravy and a veggie.

 

[chandab]

Left-overs... Just not sure if it'll be the left-over beef and noodles or the left-over Dorito Taco salad. Both need to go soon, so one tonight, one tomorrow night; or perhaps a lunch in there.

 

[Jill]

I'm not sure, i'm leaning towards frozen pizza and salad again. We're changing the water in our fish tanks, and I never wanna do food until that chore is done. But, we both like pizza and salad, and there's a broad selection of pizza in the freezer.

The broccoli salad from yesterday was good, so now I want to see how it is with turkey bacon and splenda vs sugar. I think it will still be good but a little healthier. Maybe I can try that later this week and if it's good, have it as kind of a go-to summer side dish.

The hamburger salisbury steaks with gravy and potatoes actually went over well with H. He cleaned his plate again. That's pleasing.

Tonight is pasta shells with meatballs stuffed in them. Spaghetti sauce over the top and shredded mozzarella. Salads.

Had to edit: Forgot I was volunteering at the Library tonight. So I made myself a sandwich, chips and a cookie. Stopped at Subway and got H a sub, chips and some cookies.

Going to do chicken and rice casserole tomorrow night and then the pasta shell meal on Wednesday night.

Last night we had pork chops on the grill, smashed sweet potatoes and macaroni and cheese. OMG, either it was better than I remembered or else I was really hungry because everything tasted sooooo good.

 

[Jill]

Oven BBQ pork chops and some sides here.

We had a long weekend here in Canada so our meals have been mostly BBQ with friends. Friday night we had special chow mein and wor wonton soup at one of our favourite restaurants then on Saturday night we had friends over and had steaks on the bbq along with chips, coleslaw and some of the 5 lbs of morels I picked on Friday. I cleaned them, dipped them in four/pepper and fried them in butter. I haven't had them in years and it was a nice trip down memory lane. When I was young food we could collect from the wild was a large part of our diet and it was amusing to me when I found that morels are now a high priced specialty item in some restaurants. Tonight, I think, maybe soup and sandwich, kinda like the idea of egg salad that someone else mentioned since I've got 4 dozen eggs in my fridge at the moment.
