What's for Dinner Tonight?

i found instant potato & a few cheeses i'd frozen, & amish gorgonzola in 'da fridge. (muley's buddies made the cheese). i've frozen broccoli florets/cauliflower, too, to put in there. potato/veggie soup!
 
Came home to a GREAT roast, (done on the grill), new potatoes, creamed cauliflower and a very good bottle of wine.
The only thing missing was the Strawberries for the whipped cream he had waiting for me.
OH wait the whipped cream was FOR ME!!!!
And he was wearing his chap.... ONLY his chaps....:poto:
 
Stopped at the grocery store on the way to work today and bought 3 pkgs of the Oscar Mayer Carving Board turkey breast (this is real sliced turkey, not the processed thin crap), 2 tubs of Philly cream cheese and 2 cans of whole cranberry sauce, and some sandwich thins.

Also some deli mac salad and a large bag of Lays potato chips.
Enough to make sandwiches and feed the hungry and overworked on the west side.
All were fed and pleased.

We're getting sick of fast food, and some of the crap they serve in the kitchen at work.
 
that was sweet of you, lollie- getting dinner together fer the crew. hungry 4 a turkey sammich, now.
that's how 'iggle brands of turkey is- plain 'ol actual turkey (not that stuff they sliver & call turkey, in its shiny, texturally-lacking, saline-injected state.)
have seen 'dem sammich thins fer quite awhile now. bought 'em, then let them get too stale several yrs. ago. can't wait for Thanksgiving. creamcheese, turkey & cranberry sauce sammich. w/ lettuce.
 
Every now and then, the day before, I'll tell them "nobody pack a lunch or plan anything, I'll get something."

Sandwich thins are the bomb. I hate too much bread, unless it's something hearty and grainy to make a really good stacked sandwich and nothing else.

I can't wait for Thanksgiving either.
Turkey sannies, turkey this, turkey that.
Already know how we're going to do it this year.
My niece is going to be preparing her first ever feast, with no help from anyone else. :biggrin:
 
that's sweet.
my Mum's office has 'food day'. i think it's monthly. each office-person brings an item if they so choose, from pop to dessert, & they snack through the day rather than get cafeteria food/bring a lunch. used to wake extra-early as a kiddo to make snacks & dip w/ my Mom in middle school.

Yes, sandwich thins ARE the bomb. We eat them all the time. Half the calories of a sandwich made with two slices of bread. Help yourself, and luvs, grab a few for yourself too.

thanx, joe! those look way better than the purchased ones.

for dinner tonite, i'll likely have scrambled egg w/ bleu cheese, milk, & a pudding for dessert.
 
One of my favorites tonight. 3 boneless chicken breasts in a casserole dish with cream of chicken soup and swiss layered over them. Then the whole thing gets stove top stuffing spread over the top.
 
Tonight I had a taste for pizza, so I made a double batch of olive oil dough using 1/3 stone ground whole wheat flour. Really great flavor to the crust. Topped it with my marinara sauce, sweet Hungarian pepper rings, red onion slices and lots of fresh grated Mozzarella. DW made the salad and there were no prisoners taken.

Dang! I could eat some but not all that. Guess the smaller portions have become habit. Although I do eat more often some days. Like the big bowl of chocolate peanut butter ice cream I just had.:clap:
 
+1 Joe.. pizza pizza!

I made a salmon steak, rice pilaf and green beans.
Had an unexpected guest interrupt dinner..
A plumber.
The john's fixed, and I didn't get taken to the cleaners.
Imagine that?

Sorry to hear that. Did you NEED a ride to the cleaners? Your car in the shop?:whistling:
 
A little late as I had a busy evening yesterday with two meetings and wanting to get home to watch the debate. I made a big pot of sauce yesterday, so s'ghetti was the natural choice for dinner.

Chicken pot pie that was made earlier in the day.
The recipe is on the back of a can of Veg-All mixed veggies, but is also found on various recipe sites on the net.
Quick and simple.

I can't eat a pie without dousing it with sauce-in-the-hole.
In this case, it was Heinz 57.
Beef pies get the ketchup treatment.


Dinner was popcorn, celery sticks with peanut butter and whatever else I could scrounge around for.

We went to a pig roast...nuff said. 145# porker with more sides than you could count. I brought Corn & Potato Chowder. Urp!
 
We were busy getting the last of the plants in the greenhouses today so I put a chuck roast in the clay cooker at 350 about 11 this morning. About 3 we cut up potatoes, cherry tomatoes,celery,carrots and holland style onions. I had added a little beef soup base to make a nice broth and about 5 I spooned this over top of everything. Man was it good. I remembered pics after we ate so here is what is left in the pot. The old neighbor made me an apple pie with the apples they bought the other day plus some soft molasses cookies. Too full right now for any of that. Might have pie for breakfast.:yum: I will get 2 more meals out of the leftovers.

Roasted a chicken for dinner along with mashed redskin potatoes and corn/bean steamer. We have enough leftovers for tomorrow's din-din. DW had the white meat, and my plate had the the most flavorful part of the bird...the legs & thighs!
