What Are You Having For Dinner

[Sentry18]

I told my youngest child last weekend that he could choose what we are having for dinner tonight. He thought about it for a while and decided he wanted: steak, mashed cauliflower with beef gravy, cucumber slices, radishes and a chocolate shake. So that's what we're having. However I have never seen that boy eat a radish in his life and in his own words "Pork chops are my favorite meat, but we have those all the time so I decided to have steak, which I don't like as much but we don't have as often". Kindergarten logic.

We're having homemade pizza

Meatloaf, mashed potatoes and broccoli. Mango pie for dessert.

What kind?

 

[Peanut]

Anyone else do this? Plain white bread with un-pasteurized butter on top… covered with white sugar… and then, a liberal coat of cinnamon on top of that (no offense intended) . Toasted until the sugar starts to brown…

There were times when I was a kid… we didn’t have enough eggs or bacon. My mom would juice my siblings and I with enough sugar, carbs and fat to keep us going until lunch at school.

It’s still a treat I give myself occasionally at night… I don’t sleep very well afterwards but it is yummy!

 

[jimLE]

Well peanut.thats a different stule of cinnamon toast that i haven't tried.i always mix the sugar and cinnamon togeather.in which i keep a mixture in a shaker.and some extra in a jar.I've only used soft butter.or. stick butter thats been softened up somewhat to make it easier to spread.

 

[NannyPatty]

That was one of our mainstays,too,Peanut. My grandkids love it. My dad uses to make it with unpasteurized thick sweet cream as well. Sure brings back a lot of memories!!

Homemade Hamburger helper is kinda like the Cheesey Mac. Except with ground beef. So I cook hamburger, add Italian seasoning, onion, garlic. Throw in a 9 by 13 pan, add 2 cans of spaghetti sauce, hand fulls of whatever cheese (grated) I have. I put in Mozzarella, sharp cheddar and jack. Mix in one lb of cooked pasta. Stir it all up and bake it till the cheese melts. The grandkids love it. I made garlic toast (Texas toast) to serve with it and a salad.

Got so tickled last night....hubby decided to take us out for a meal....I ordered a small hamburger with fries and jalapeno poppers as well...our meal was served but without the poppers....waitress came by and said..."poppers were being made, cook misunderstood what I wrote on the ticket"...and so after a few minutes, I realized my small hamburger was covered with jalapeno peppers which I love anyway, so just kept my mouth shut...told hubby and we sat there laughing...besides, loved the poppers as well

We used to do that when I was a kid. My aunt had a shaker of cinnamon sugar next to the oven.

[Peanut]

I made a pot of hot n sour soup with shrimp... yummy as always.

@Peanut : Just yesterday I had my "Cinnamon Toast" and like @Terri9630 I have it in a shaker, already waiting for the hot buttered toast. Love it. The only item I will splurge and have mixed with sugar. Removed all other sugar items from diet but not my "Cinnamon Toast".

 

[Amish Heart]

My girls were ready to make a good Italian dinner for us, but we ended up spending the day in ER because husband was feeling worse. So I grabbed take out sushi and subsandwich...granddaughter and I do not like sushi, but everyone else does. I get a raincheck for the manicotti and extras on Thursday night.

 

[Sentry18]

Tonight we are having sandwiches. Only without bread. So like bread-less sandwiches. Which is to say a meat and cheese tray. So we're having a meat and cheese tray. Plus olives, pickles, peppers, finger veggies and spinach dip.

 

[Meerkat]

Whatever we can scrape up. Time to buy groceries. I just had a can of pork and beans and some beets for lunch.
