What's for Dinner Tonight?

Nursing home food.
Which at times isn't half bad.
Tonight was bad.
Lasagna with a hard roof of slide-off cheese, and a salad aka shredded lettuce.
:doh:

I'll wager that it was that cheap ass iceberg lettuce as well. But my guess is that it was more than kids get in their "Michelle Meals" at school these days. :yum:

Tonight's was goooooooood.
Din din at a place called Bandido's.
Monterey Chicken, with white rice and a very nice salad.

:yum:

When I was a kid we did Appian Way Pizza with burger and onion for topping.

Tonight I did a kilo of moules with a baguette and butter on the side.

I got the rest of Thanksgiving turkey out of the freezer with the gravy and stuffing. Probably have brussel sprouts and biscuits with it.

Melensdad · Dec 23, 2014

NOT COOKING TONIGHT.

Tired of left overs and 'freezer diving' dinners.

Taking the family out to dinner at a local steakhouse. Not sure what any of them will be ordering but I will probably have a giant double thick bone-in Rib Eye. Unless they have some sort of a lamb special, they also have really good lamb at this place. Then again I might have fish, if they have a good sounding special tonight. So probably one of those 3 options, unless they have rabbit. Had some rabbit about 3 weeks ago, it was awesome, so I could be coaxed. Maybe pheasant, just becuase I rarely get it, or duck, because I always love a nice roasted duck. Of course goose is even better.

So that is what I am having. Its narrowed down to something on the menu, or on the specials list.

JEV · Dec 23, 2014

After working in the kitchen all day, I took Mrs JEV to the local Chinese buffet for dinner. Great meal under $20 even with the 20% tip. We have some smoked turkey breast in the fridge in case we get hungry later after the Chinese wears off. :yum:

We'll put it on one of these...

pirate_girl · Dec 23, 2014

I had small curd cottage cheese, saltines, half a banana and some Sprite.
Whatever hit me last night is finally starting to go away. :hammer:

I was just saying today I'm hungry for duck and have not shot one in several years. Guess I'll have to buy one. I have one pheasant left from last year but it's going into pheasant supreme.

Tonight I pan fried a ribeye, NY Strip, and small fillet. The NYS will be hash next week.

I love roasted acorn squash :clap:

Umberto · Dec 23, 2014

Of all the squash it's my favorite. Turban is #2.

Umberto · Dec 23, 2014

Here are some MV oysters my son sent me a few years ago. The other half we ate on the half shell.

This year I'm not doing any as we are going to the coast for the clam tide and razor clams.

luvs · Dec 24, 2014

Ii'll see later on. my Parents shall choose. then make me make dinner. my Mom may make a pie.

Umberto · Dec 24, 2014

Tonight it's oyster soup and smoked turkey sandwiches.

As good as Pac NW oysters are, I miss the Chesapeake Bay variety.

300 H and H · Dec 24, 2014

Going to a family Christmas dinner. Don't know exactly what is on the menue. I am doing my usual thing, taking along Oyster stew, Chesapeake oysters. Never had the opportunity to try the Pacific kind. I think they would still be fine eating though....

The ones I have eaten from the Gulf coast were very good indeed. I suppose any flavor difference could be from what they are filtering out for food. Heck so far I like all of them!

Baked Acorn squash sounds good. Brown sugar, butter, and a touch of vanilla in mine please...

Regards, Kirk

Ditto here too.

At least Melen & I are going. My wife is not feeling up to attending. She has an infected tooth and fighting a cold. She needs to save her energy for a Christmas day feast at our house tomorrow. :sad:

Every year Christmas Eve at my cousin's house. Ham, stuffed cabbage, sausages, sauerkraut, lots and lots of desserts.

Umberto · Dec 25, 2014

I used three jars of smalls, but these smalls are huge. I'll get some mediums to panko fry for po'boys next week.

I was the only one to have a bowl so have plenty of soup for the next three days or so.

Oysters with their liquor, whole milk, butter, and pepper; needed salt at the table.

pirate_girl · Dec 26, 2014

I enjoyed leftovers at my neighbour friends, with a rousing game of Scrabble and chatter with the gals.

A bit of turkey, ham, broccoli and blue cheese casserole <-- That was to die for, yum yum!
Baileys Irish Cream over ice, for dessert. ;-)
'twasn't the short shot either. lol :brows:

JEV · Dec 26, 2014

Today is our grand daughter's fourth birthday, so we had dinner with her family. She was born ar 12:26 on 12-26 for those who remember back then.

I had enough leftover chicken Parmesan, sauce & salad from Christmas dinner, so we had a repeat performance and cleaned up all the leftovers. Alexa requested spaghetti for dinner, so her mommy boiled up some spaghetti and she was happy.

MrLiberty · Dec 26, 2014

I need to go to the store, the last two days it's been picking at snacks and deli trays, and I need some real food.

Most of the family is down with the flu so I didn't see many family members so I had lots of leftover deli.

I need steak and taters. :hammer:

Melensdad · Jan 1, 2015

Had a can of Chef Boy Ar Dee "MINI RAVIOLI" tonight, followed by some Nutella on breaksticks and some watermelon. Full but not fullfilled. So I went back and sliced off some chunks of ham that the lovely Mrs Bob baked yesterday. Overfull, but still not fullfilled. Probably going back for more, at some point.

Tomorrow we are going to DITKA'S in Chicago. Not sure what I'm going to eat. Possibly the Rib-eye. Its my favorite cut of beef. But they have excellent Baby Back Ribs. Oh, and then there is the Chilean Sea Bass, my favorite fish to order at fine restaurants. Just going to wing it when I get there.

tiredretired · Jan 1, 2015

Shepard's Pie, homemade dinner rolls and tossed salad. Oh, and I washed it all down with a great big glass of 100% Whole Milk. I'll be 66 in a few days and Whole Milk ain't killed me yet. :yum:

MrLiberty · Jan 2, 2015

Last night, homemade lasagna and french bread, tonight leftovers. :biggrin:

And I still love my whole milk at 60. :wow:
