What's for Dinner?

[Janelle205]

Tonight for DH and DSD was salads with chicken, corn salsa and crushed tortilla chips.  Working on using up leftovers from our get together this weekend.

Pasta primavera -- rosemary and basil as the herbs.

Hope to make a big enough batch that it covers supper tomorrow nite too.

Time to start cutting up veggies!

Zucc, asparagus, garlic, onions, peppers (3 colors), peas, carrots, tomatoes ( . . . might throw in cauliflower?

Or steam cauliflower on side.

(I'm the only cauli lover, however . . . )

Crepes and turkey bacon.  my previously sick kids were craving crepes so they got what they wanted.  First real food for dd in a few days. 

[SilverLining]

Lobster
Potato

[hopechap]

sort of exalted and humble silverlining.

I don't know. Am at loss today. After a week of trying to impress MIL I feel like having nasty frozen pizza. I'm to tired to even want to go out. Spaghettios for dinner?

[GoingNuts]

Cold poached salmon, Israeli salad (chopped cukes, tomatoes, green peppers, red onion, cilantro tossed with oil and vinegar), basmati rice.  Too hot for anything more elaborate. 

[hopechap]

something vegan. just bought some animal rights books. time to slow down the meaty dinners. maybe vegan lasagna.

[twinturbo]

cucumber roll, spinach, curry chicken. Dinner needs to be a quick fix today and I need to use up what's in the pantry.

Thought I'd share this b/c it may be the best grilled chicken I've ever had!!!  I just made it up b/c I am trying to avoid sauces b/c it usually ups the sugar/carb content of a meal significantly

I served it with grilled corn on the cob, brown rice/peas and watermelon

Chicken Rub   

1 large pckg of boneless skinless chicken thighs (probably 8 thighs)

In large Ziploc bag combine:
1T garlic salt
1T black pepper
2 t onion powder
1 tsp paprika
1 T basil
1T parsley
2 T olive oil

Mix all in bag to coat chicken and let sit in fridge 2 hrs – 1 day
Grill ~4 minutes per side

Sounds great!  I usually prefer spice rubs to sauces. 

[YouKnowWho]

Pioneer Woman's French Onion soup - hopefully tears will be limited to chopping onions and not related to grasping the handle of a pot straight out of a 400 degree oven like last time...

[Janelle205]

A sort of Mexican flavored quiche, which seems weird to me, since quiche is French and all.

So really, egg pie with some chipotle marinated chicken, cheese, and homemade corn salsa thrown in.  Fancy leftovers.

[YouKnowWho]

Roasted butternut squash and peppers, chicken strips with parm cheese and garlic and buttered noodles for the carb lovers.

[twinturbo]

I need to start stalking YKW's dinners tweaking them for no dairy cuz I know you even factor paleo in.

Leftovers from last night:

Beef/turkey sloppy joes (homemade -- not from can)
Slaw (lots of peppers, onions, and carrots with the cabbage)
Butter beans
Corn

Strawberries.  (Costco)


Maybe a glass of pinot noir.  La Crema.  (Costco)




Maybe a 2nd glass if I watch too much news tonite.
