RE: DINNER THREAD -8/7/17 - 8/13/17 - Mare749 - 08-08-2017 Oh, we love that as much as red chili with beef! I started using a packaged seasoning mix from McCormick just because it's easy and we really like it. Ron likes to crumble a few tortilla chips in his bowl and we both like a dollop of sour cream on top. I decided to use that squash today and make a taco boat like Heather suggested. RE: DINNER THREAD -8/7/17 - 8/13/17 - cjs - 08-08-2017 I'm going with a tub of my favorite peanut sauce tossed with some rice noodles and grilled chix wings. RE: DINNER THREAD -8/7/17 - 8/13/17 - Harborwitch - 08-08-2017 I have some leftover London broil and mushrooms so I'm making a riff on Stroganoff and Basmati rice. I'll serve it with some haricot vert I got at Costoc yesterday. I wish it was cooler - chile sounds so good! RE: DINNER THREAD -8/7/17 - 8/13/17 - Trixxee - 08-09-2017 We are going to the Orange County Fair today (if you bring $5 worth of new school supplies you get in free plus a free ride ticket - that's like an $18 value). I can't believe all the supplies I was able to buy at Target for $15. 24 pack of crayons, 50 cents a box. Ten markers, $1.00 a pack etc. I am hoping my favorite gryo place is there. It's pretty much a tradition for me. RE: DINNER THREAD -8/7/17 - 8/13/17 - cjs - 08-09-2017 Wednesday's Dinner, 8/9/17?? What's for dinner today?? RE: DINNER THREAD -8/7/17 - 8/13/17 - Harborwitch - 08-09-2017 I am thinking Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese and a green salad. Not cast in stone yet. RE: DINNER THREAD -8/7/17 - 8/13/17 - cjs - 08-09-2017 from the freezer Noodles and mushroom sauce. If I don't show up on the forum for the next couple of days it's computer/connection problems, so just carrying on until I can show my face again..... RE: DINNER THREAD -8/7/17 - 8/13/17 - Gourmet_Mom - 08-09-2017 Jean, you have had your fair share of computer issues recently! Trixxee, I hope you got your gyro! A fair sounds fun! The Terriyaki Chicken was really good. I haven't made Fried Rice in a long time….it turned out great. I know two Asian recipes in two days is a bit much, but I am economizing. Tonight, I took advantage of a pork tenderloin I saved from the broken freezer. I should have cooked it before now, actually. We had the Chicken Ramen Stir Fry but with pork. I now cut back the ramen to two packs and double the sauce and veggies. It was really good. I haven't made it in a while. Now that I have a full functioning fridge, I meal planned and was able to get ingredients that don't have to be used up in a day or two. YEAH! FINALLY!!!!! RE: DINNER THREAD -8/7/17 - 8/13/17 - Mare749 - 08-09-2017 Well, sure hope you aren't missing for very long, Jean! Tonight was a fun evening spent with Holly, Bob, and one of their long time friends. Heather was "celebrity bartending" at a local pub for a fundraiser for MetroHealth moms and infants. She did a great job for her first time and even though it was crowded and crazy, she took it all in stride. The bar donated 20% of their sales between 6-10 p.m. to the fundraiser and any money that went into the tip jar at the bar. The food was great. I had half of a fried haddock sandwich that was huge! Brought the rest home to have tomorrow. RE: DINNER THREAD -8/7/17 - 8/13/17 - cjs - 08-10-2017 Thursday's Dinner, 8/10/17?? (Fingers crossed the band aids we've used work and I can keep on goin'! : ) What's for dinner today? I made a batch of Marinara yesterday, so will have some today with Tortellini and maybe a couple little grilled lamb chops. I have a leftover tip I'm going to post that was just wonderful last night. For our later snack, I like to split (to use 2 nights) a box of Pacific Red Pepper & Tomato Soup and add all my leftovers to it. Last night I had some rice noodles I had sauced with my Spicy Peanut Sauce to add along with other goodies. Let me tell you the addition of the peanut sauce was great!! Just a nice subtle back flavor of the Asian hit the spot. |
