What's for Dinner Tonight?

i just took a few things (fritters, breaded fried cod, sauces) from the staff breakfast. snacked later, then the rest of my loster claws & strip steak, veggies & milk, all cold. & good.
 
Breakfast for dinner. 2-cheese omelet, homemade hash browns and honey whole wheat toast. Very filling.

I made grilled ham and cheese with swiss on one side of the ham and velveeta on the other. They were good and quick for a hot day. Was going to grill chicken on the grill but it was 86 degrees and I had enough heat for the day.
 
I was tied up with an event all weekend ("Field Day" for ham radio), so when my 26 year-young son and his girlfriend came over today to do their laundry, my wife asked him if he wanted to make the dinner for tonight. Not a chef, but just a guy who also enjoys cooking he jumped at the opportunity, as his apartment only has 18" of workable counter space. I think he did an excellent job, starting with just a package of bone-in chicken breast. I like to think the apple has not fallen far from the tree. He makes me proud. BTW, the chicken breast was grilled to perfection, and was very juicy.

He sure put on a good looking meal. Can't wait till there is some affordable corn ready around here. It is all imported and going for 40 cents an ear.

We're paying 3 for $1, and it's been very good for a month or more.
 
i'm so ill. so hungry! bubble-bath time. so sleepy. better cheddars. peas.
Oh Aubrey.
Sorry to hear you're not feeling well.
My dinner at worked sucked, it was a chicken casserole.
Yup. Chicken, noodles and peas with a poor excuse for a salad.
Lettuce and french dressing??
Hmmm.. that's a salad?

I should have gone out for something.
Like across the road to Taco Hell..
 
We had some grilled chicken leftover from yesterday's dinner, so I made a quick Spanish rice (1C rice, 2C chicken broth & 1C mild salsa all cooked together) then diced up the chicken and mixed it in with the rice. A veggie side and we called it "DINNER."

i'm getting better, lollie~ okay, i'm 'bout to sing the golden girlz song.:w00t2:
great salad u got. u should see the foodservice they've implemented @ a few hospitals here. i thought i'd dreamt it all, hehe. real, good food we'd call in, delivered via robot to waitstaff. they tried to get me to work there.

joe, now i'm sure u know by now i'm nary a fan of 98% of all types of rice. i would devour your dinner, tho. looks so good. can i borrow the recipe u typed~ think i'll add black beenz & cheese, maybe a few scallions 4 garnish. yum. blake would luv it. he adores rice.

me, it's junk food nite. missed staff brekkie- i chose to take 3 certification exams rather than attend class. i despise bubble sheets.:hammer:
 
I heated a can of organic cheese ravioli that I'd bought at a health food store.
It was good.
Had corn too and a bagel.
 
they ordered in pizza for us, someone put together mesclun green salads w/ a viniagrette, another made garlic crostini, & another, salmon w/ an herbed crema.

Again, Aubs.. very nice food you had today!

I was going to make chicken and salad, but knew I was going out for ice cream this evening.. so ... decided to say to hell with cooking and got two corn dogs (which I might add were HUGE).. I even gnawed the last bits of the fried batter off the sticks like a starved squirrel, then had a turtle sundae.:yum:
 
my last school-made breakfast/dinner. test tomorrow, a certification renewal, then bye-bye school.:mellow: i luv school, so this wasn't the best of days.
corned beef & swiss sammiches, someone made kettle chips, 2 ppl made creamy cuke/onion salads, & there was thousand island. kind of. it broke as the guy that made it was too close to the ranges/stove an' 'at.
pastry made marble cupcakes.

They had the chicken cordon bleu boneless breasts-- from our food service provider today..Gordon Food Service.
The sodium and fat content in those are outrageous, so it makes me wonder how it fits into the dietary guidelines for a lot of my patients and residents.
They don't get it that often so.....
Had that and a tomato/onion salad.
It was pretty good.
 
I took some pork shoulder steaks, chopped them into little pieces and turned it into Sweet-n-Sour Pork with Flied Lice.

The wife would love that Joe. We took pork loin steaks and sliced and chunked them in an Oriental stir fry mix. Was real good over a little plain rice.
 
Tonight I had a Baconator from Wendy's. Holy balls that's a good burger!

Last night I had my favorite food from my favorite pizzeria. I ventured into the big city and visited my friend, a little old Lady that has been consistently cranking out the best pizza anywhere between Chicago and Milwaukee for over 20 years. Takeout and delivery only in this little shack - had to be about 120* in there! Maria has a Brother on the other side of town with an equally good pizza.

I was working outside all day, so this chicken & rice casserole with steamed veggies and salad was made by DW & DS. this is a longtime family favorite.

i got dolmades w/ hummus & pita. i was a tad iffy on them as they were lukewarm. & a snowcone- sorta- @ the regatta. we split quart of lemonade w/ strawberry, lemon & lime slices. there were food stands all over the place, so it was a tough call.
