What's for Dinner Tonight?

Quick easy dinner.

Pizza – hub and my pizza (the girls had less stuff on theirs) - Boboli thin crust topped with plain tomato sauce with oregano, fresh basil, all-purpose seasoning (my blend), ground red pepper flakes, Trader Joe’s garlic salt grinder, evoo, fresh mushrooms, onions, fresh garlic, black olives, pepperoni matchsticks, fresh grated romano and parmesan cheeses, grated cheddar cheese and mozzarella. Bake on a pizza stone @ 550°F for 3 minutes.

Lord almighty... that looks so good. :)
 
Right now I have three large collanders full of tomatoes and a pot of tomatoes on the stove. Lots of possibilities.
 
Home made lasagna tonight. It was good and I will cut the rest up and vac seal it. Makes a great quick meal when you are tired or too busy.

I'm finally back from a week of trout fishing up in Grayling, MI, and back in the kitchen (The fishing was great...the catching, not so much!). I finally got some time to make a decent dinner for DW, and we have enough leftovers for open face roast beef sammies for dinner tomorrow. Sliced the roast very thin with the 12" slicer, which DW really likes.

 
Independence Day 2013

We had a fun day with the kids & grandkids, and ate too many snacks before a great dinner. DD#1 made Gorgonzola & mushroom stuffed sirloin burgers on whole wheat buns with corn on the cob and DW's baked beans topped with bacon. DW also made chocolate chip cookies for everyone to take home, and for Alexa to put in the freezer. Since having them at Grandma's house, she won't eat a room temp chocolate chip cookie...they have to be frozen. LOL DD#2 made her first ever Dutch Apple Pie and served it with triple vanilla ice cream. She did a great job. It tasted as good as it looked. Makes us proud to see the girls doing so well in the kitchen, and for their willingness to try new and different dishes.





Alexa got to experience her first sparklers, and did a great job of being careful. No burned fingers!!!! Yay!!!!



Here's Grandma and her grand babies just before heading home.

 
Fireworks may be illegal here but you sure wouldn't know it last night. They were being set off all over the place and I never saw a policeman or the police helicopter. It was great fun. Hamburgers and hot dogs with potato salad, cole slaw and strawberry shortcake.

Made sirloin steak kabobs and wife made some real good macaroni salad. Settle for a grill pic cause once I brought them in the house it was chow down time.

Actually, this was last night. Sat around the open fire last night, beers - wine - etc. And then there was the ribs, cooked outside on the open fire. Excellent!

Man that looks good Squerly. Too damn hot up here for that. I won't even fire up the gas grill unless I made a steak for breakfast.
 
This wasn't dinner, but my carryout lunch today. Best perch sandwich I've ever had. I had to eat 2 pieces of the perch to find the bun. Then ate the sandwich with the last piece along with the fries.

That's an amazing sandwich. Where di you buy it so I can put that in my travel planner of places to stop and eat? That had to be at least a $10 sandwich with that much perch on it.

Got it at Lawshea's Ribs and Fish located at Morse Rd and Karl Rd in Columbus. Believe it or not that was only $5.95. They have White and Black Bass,Tilapia, Catfish, Boston Blue and walleye. Ribs and Pork Chops, wings, chicken livers and Gizzards.
 
Feeling a little Jewish today, so I made Latkes for dinner. DW was pleasantly surprised to see them.

Meh, can't recommend those two. Tasted like a big blob of deep fried breading.
 
Grilled ribeyes in a light rain. Made corn on the cob we had vac sealed from last year. Boiled some red skin new taters but were too full to eat them so they will get fried for breakfast.:clap:

That's my kind of meal! Steak and corn (I steam my corn covered in the microwave without anything added).

These are the last of last years ears that were vac sealed. I nuke them and then boil them in the bag so they cook in their own juice. Turn them over a few times and they come out great.
