What's for Dinner?

[hedgehog]

I picked up steak and veggies (baby potatoes, zucchini, fennel) I can grill.  I just invited my kickboxing instructor to join me.  He is also going through a divorce, living alone.

Tonight was a pasta casserole with tomato sauce and ricotta that the kids completely destroyed.  I expected to have leftovers.  DH had a counselor appointment and there was barely any left for him when he got home.

Corned beef is ready for tomorrow.

Big St. Patrick's Day meal: Corned beef & cabbage, mashed potatoes, mixed veggies, rolls with garlic dill butter and pistachio pie.

Leftover Veggie lasagna and salad.

Tomorrow: salmon, potatoes, salad.

Pulled pork.

And there is SO MUCH pulled pork.  Enough leftovers in the fridge for several meals and still more now in the freezer.

I made 47 meatballs today.  So, simmered some in sauce to feed us tonight, and froze the rest.  We’d had some from the freezer the last 2 nights, and I had some leftover sauce and cooked pasta.  I think dd will have the leftover chicken soup.  I’m trying to be more efficient with getting them to use up leftover items. 

I’ll cook the corned beef tomorrow.  I made an Irish bread today.  I’ve got cabbage and potatoes to go with the corned beef.  I’ll sauté the cabbage, with an onion, and roast the baby red potatoes in the air fryer.

DH is having leftover chili; I’m having the ultimate comfort food - noodles and cottage cheese.

Tomorrow will be roast chicken.  Fresh veggies if I can find them.  Salad if not.

Mashed potato and pulled pork "sundaes".  DS said "I am eating this too fast because it is too yummy."

[GoingNuts]

Awww, that’s so sweet.  And sounds yummy.

[Janelle205]

Chicken drumsticks, mixed veggies, cottage cheese and oranges.

[BensMom]

Chicken marsala with orzo, salad.

[GoingNuts]

Roast chicken, cauliflower and potatoes.

[BensMom]

Pasta fagioli

[hedgehog]

Roasted chicken thighs with garlic, lemon, and rosemary, roasted carrots and baby potatoes. 

[Janelle205]

Homemade 'Chipotle': cilantro lime rice, black beans, peppers and onions, flank steak, corn salsa, sour cream and shredded pepperjack.  They did bowls with tortilla chips.  I forgot to take the avocados out of the fridge to ripen, so no guac today.


Stay at home has made my family into vultures.  I haven't had dinner and they ate a POUND of steak.  This would be one thing if I were serving it as the main part of the meal, but it was just an ingredient with a ton of other food.
