What's for Dinner?

[MaryM]

Both of those meals sound great, Janelle!

Last night we had homemade pizza.  DD doesn’t live dairy free pizza so she had tofu filled ravioli.
I’m not sure what to make tonight.  Some sort of chicken or maybe burgers.

[BensMom]

Leftover brisket and leftover apricot chicken.

Leftover steak for DH and leftover salmon for me over salad, with leftover matzoh Kugel.

The kids made pasta with meat sauce last night.  DD was teaching DS - ha!  He thinks making frozen pizza and Kraft Mac & cheese is cooking.

Today - Ham, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes and I guess corn.  I have mo fresh veggies or rolls but everyone is happy we have a ham for Easter.  Its so big - way too bug for th 4 of us - when you do online shopping you get what you get.  We will be eating ham a week....

Mary, ham freezes well. 

Not dinner, but my big meal for today. I just had pancakes with blueberry compote and whipped cream, bacon, and a bellini for breakfast.  Lunch will probably be cheese and crackers.  Supper will probably be popcorn and ice cream (I don't like microwave popcorn, so have gone without all the time I had no stove).

I don’t want to go out so I’m going to improvise with what I have in the house. I’m going to make some pseudo Indian stuff.  I have cauliflower, potatoes, chick peas.  I’ll make some curry mixture. It will be fine.

I riffed on this. I didn’t have any cumin seeds, so just used cumin. I added some basmati rice and a van of chick peas, and found that it needed to cook longer than the recipe indicated. It is a home run. Delicious.

Tonight’s episode of Chopped:

I had some grape tomatoes, mushrooms, leftover broccoli and fresh mozzarella. I made some pasta, sautéed the veggies with garlic, and tossed them with the pasta and mozzarella. Delicious.

Tomorrow:  Matzoh Brei (Matzoh and scrambled eggs sautéed with onions and served with salt and pepper. It tastes much better than it sounds!), probably with leftover chicken soup.  Seems like this week is all about carbs.

I'm giving this a try (without the chicken)

[Janelle205]

I was going to make scrambled eggs with the last of the veggies and such in the fridge before our grocery order tomorrow.

But there was an incident.  With a rotten egg.  It made me very unwell.

So DH and DSD made everyone boxed mac and cheese.

This was really good, so I'm going to cross-post in the quinoa thread.

Not sure about dinner tonight yet, but the last of the roasted chicken went into avocado chicken salad for lunch.

[GoingNuts]

Baked chicken cutlets, oven roasted potatoes and Brussels Sprouts.  Will use the leftover chicken tomorrow night for enchiladas.

[MaryM]

Last night was grilled steak, sautéed onions and peppers and homemade fries.  Not sure about tonight.  I think we are getting broccoli and green beans in our grocery order today!!  Maybe some sort of chicken dish.

[GoingNuts]

Beef stew, and since I don’t have enough potatoes, I think I’ll make biscuits.
