What's For Dinner - Wed. 10/7?

[cjs]

What are you all up to?

I have to choose between a crockpot dinner and a tuna casserole a neighbor gave me that sounds pretty good. decisions, decisions.

Roasted beets. Nor sure what else.

I have to go get my car inspected for PA plates so I need something quick and easy. I am going to try to make the chicken cutlets with spicy beans and kale from the October issue. Hope the store has kale. Tuna casserole sounds so good today. I need a good recipe, will have to do a search to see if that topic has been covered.

I made the chicken cutlets with spicy beans and kale and I meant to do a review and never did. If I remember correctly I liked it but I was expecting some sauce to spoon over the chicken (that's what the picture shows, right?). That kind of bugged me. Or maybe I just was in a bad mood. :_

We're eating the last of the stew. Got a lot of mileage out of that dish!

[Gourmet_Mom]

We've got Bible study tonight, so I'm thawing ribs to throw on the grill when we get home...corn and salad on the side. I am so tired today!

[chef_Tab]

Trixxee, there does seem to be a juice of some kind on the chicken.....is it the broth from the kale and beans?

[Trixxee]

That's what I mean - there wasn't any liquid left! My best friend and I call that kind of thing, "sauce? what sauce?"

I'll have to go find my issue so I can refresh my memory but I seem to remember the beans and kale absorbed any and all liquid.

Thanks to Trixxee's report, I doubled the kale, and all of the sauce ingredients. So glad I did, I cannot imagine how dry it would have been. We really liked the dish, a great comfort type dinner that is actually healthy. I also put the lid on the pan while the kale wilted to hold in the moisture. There are not any leftovers!

Not only did we imagine it, we lived it. LOL! But the spicy beans and kale were different and tasty.
