Whats for dinner 2023

[GaRp58]

Since we are both a bit under the weather, we are going light. Fried squash, hand made noodles and gravy, wieners. Hitting around 100°F daily and the appetites are running low anyway. But, we are staying in the house, even without AC, I can keep it under 75°F/25°C with the house shut up well.
When I got up to water the garden it was at 23°F/72°F- by the time Helena got up and the sun came around the corner it was already 36°C/98°F and it was only 11 am...

I'm cooking porkchop stew. Rice, sweet peas and French bread.

 

[EastenerWesterner]

Chef John’s Taco Zucchini boats are on the menu for tonight. Sounds totally different to me.

 

[user 7704]

I cooked baked sweet potatoes with brown sugar. Nothing else.

 

[Cindyd]

Made my fried rice (again), having shrimp with it tonight

 

[Proud Prepper]

Yesterday I made a remoulade sauce and boiled 6 pounds of large gulf shrimp.
Put together a shrimp remoulade salad of iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, red onion, avocado, hardboiled eggs.

 

[Proud Prepper]

Today I made a big pot of creole split pea soup.

We are having kielbasa and pierogies

 

[Cindyd]

I wasn't going to eat dinner but mother called and she made an old country dinner: Pot of pinto beans, fried potatoes, cornbread, mustard greens, fresh onions, tomatoes n cucumber slices. I'm going back n eating at her place later.

Wife made a Vegie Lasgna last night. It was pretty good but Aldente Got called in so they don’t have to shut clinic down For a half half shift, if she ever gets out on time, she has to pick up 3 packages and return 2. Its kinda of welcome to my world what Happens when I leave the mountain
its a half a day trip. Hers is already full day and wont be accomplished. By dinner time
If it’s a decent time I will heat that vegi lasagna. If not, the prepackage burnt brisket ends I bought for Wed night. .

One of my employees brought me to a dive bar in Niagara Falls for lunch that I should have picked up. Just couldn’t have alcohol on the bill for lunch. The Labatts Blue was a perfect compliment


Best pierogis and best polish sausage. I asked the waitress, is a local sausage, she came back from the kitchen and said no, its hillshire farms.

It’s all in how you cook it.

Must be. He usually grabs whatever is in front of him. Husband does the shopping.

 

[Amish Heart]

Burgers, steak fries, and sweet corn

I follow Chef John too! He has some great recipes!


Made some cannolis yesterday. Not the kind with whipping cream in them. Made from an old original Italian recipe. Luv the blend of baked pistachios and chopped up chocolate! Hubby really enjoys them!

 

[GaRp58]

I am fasting...Helena wants to stop smoking and is suffering...so I told I would take a bit of suffering with her and do some fasting. Will be good for both of us. I can drink anything I want but no food--how long will it take for her to stop or at least get down to a minimum of daily consume and then quit? Praying for her too, live free, Gary

That's sweet of you.

Taco night at my favorite cousin's place tonight. Now don't get all excited about it. Amish tacos. They will not be hot and be a little different.

Tell me more

 

[Amish Heart]

Ha. I will give you the full details after dinner. It'll be heavy in desserts...always is.

 

[Cindyd]

Since I was doing a little canning today and I also had to get me CEU's done for the year for work. Anyway, I made the go to 15 bean soup in crockpot, browned some kielbasa n smoked sausage and threw it in and cornbread I brought back from mother's last night.

 

[Proud Prepper]

We are eating leftover split pea soup for dinner. I did make cornbread muffins to go with it.

For lunch we ate some MRE pouches of various kinds with some white rice.

 

[Amish Heart]

Taco night at my amish cousin's place was: two twelve packs of dorito shelled tacos from Taco Bell that her (english) son and his wife brought. Refried beans. The bowl of cut fruit I brought. Chips. And dessert: I brought a chocolate plate, also we had church cookies, and an apricot platz with ice cream. I don't normally eat Taco Bell anything, so it's heartburn time.

 

[Cindyd]

3 saltine crackers n 1 slice of Swiss cheese...no appetite this eve for me...thought about left over 15 bean soup, but ehh....Larry wanted chicken noodle soup and I quartered him up a florida orange.

 

[Amish Heart]

Chicken shish kabob with our garden veg on it. Fried potatoes with garlic and butter, from our garden. A bowl of fruit.

 

[DrHenley]

Zong Zi
Sticky rice with pork and black mushrooms wrapped in bamboo leaves.
Sometimes called "Sticky Rice Dumplings" but I think that's a terrible translation. Basically the Chinese version of dolmas but using bamboo leaves instead of grape leaves...and you don't eat the leaves.

Chef John is my wife’s favorite. Kent Rollins is mine. Between us, we eat pretty well whoever cooks.

 

[GeorgiaPeachie]

I’m the dinner cook and hubby is the breakfast cook. It works well for us. Like you guys, we eat well. Our son in law is a professional chef for a billionaire and he has helped me a lot through the years on bringing up my “game” on cooking! Though I have always loved to prepare meals and try new things. Baking different breads and desserts is my favorite. We just don’t eat as many as we used to.

 

[Survivor_316]

We had white bean and leek soup, which sounds weird for 90 degree weather, but it was still good.

 

[Cindyd]

Larry was feeling well enough to make dinner..pork chops, potatoes and corn. I haven't eaten yet (had a chicken patty n 2 eggs late in day), so not really hungry plus he's coughed all over everything in this house today, what time he wasn't in bed, so if i was hungry, im not now. I appreciate that he cooked, but pretty sure he likely coughed on the food while cooking. Lol
In his defense, I worked til almost 7pm, so I could only hear him and not see him.

Last few days has been.home made tacos, meat loaf patties and chips.and milk to wash it down
