What's for Dinner Tonight?

let's see, lol, some unsalted pretzel twists, a piece of praline fudge, 2 'lil rosemary croccantinis, a blow-pop, a couple kinds of other candies & a dum-dum, chewy spree candies, & a few litely salted potato chips, 2 sweet & salty granola bars, & a few gingerales. (i found that those sweet & salty bars have less sodium than a glass of milk!) & a thankigiving dinner sample while i got groceries- there was turkey, carrot souffle & stuffing.

i went to the 'iggle & re-stocked my 'kitch, then cleaned some of the shelves of any food that was due to expire before december/january. it took hours for both so i was too preoccupied to cook dinner. i think i'll prep the ingredients 4 crockpot beef stew tonite, though-

Picked up my beef today so we had steak and mac and cheese. Topped it off with homemade blueberry pie and ice cream.:clap::clap:
 
Soup and sammie for dinner. I had a grilled cheese and a bowl of lentil soup with a small amount of brown rice in it. I love the fact that lentils and rice when eaten together form a complete protein. Very healthy. My older girl couldn't wait to eat. She loves lentil and brown rice soup.
 
i have meant to make beef stew for a few days now & haven't yet. it won't be cooked until pretty late tonite. i'm only putting a few hunks of potato in it fer thickining, then fishing them from the pot before dinner. none too fond of 'em in my stew. pouring it over smashed potato, though.
jev, i love chix parm/pasta- lollie, the burger, ummmm, & peepz, lentil soup is a fave here. muleman, gotta luv macaroni & cheese & steak
 
Toward dinner time I began to feel not so inspired for much of anything, so.. it was a bagel with cream cheese, then an orange.. then a banana.. then some cashews.
 
We had linguine cooked in the lentil soup and tomato sauce till the linguine absorbed all the liquid and got tender topped with fresh frated romano and parmesan cheese. With a slice of 10 grain homemade bread on the side.
 
Tri-tip, twice baked Taters and green beans. Snickerdoodles for dessert.

Snickerdoodles.....My wife makes me go out and get them. She loves snickerdoodles

That lokes good JEV.

We are doing strip steaks under the broiler with Bakers and Snow peas. The snow peas will be drizzled with Maple syrup and craisins.

No, I haven't tried that before but green beans, almonds and maple syrup turned out pretty good. How bad could it be?

Mmmmmmmmmm Joe and Aubrey too.

Chopped boiled eggs mixed with baked beans and poured over thick toasted bread.
The storm got in the way of me spending much time in the kitch! lol
 
I'm going to brown some stew beef, then add veggies (carrots, potatoes,green beans and ???) beef stock and stewed tomatoes, some herbs (tarragon and thyme...maybe some mild curry powder too) - then serve it over rice.
 
have a great meal lollie, sounds delish~'

i soooo luv getting calls at the time i'd be getting dinner prepped to say that i'm NPO (i.e./ -not allowed to ingest food/fluids afer usually 12 @ nite.) i'm so pissed that they couldn't call earlier as that would have given me time 2 make a dinner, not snacks. so here's my pseudo/improv-dinner & dessert~
4 rosemary croccantini w/ herbed goat cheese, then 4 dessert a
slice of a honeycrisp, a 'lil banana, a clementine & a granola bar that turned into 2, & also some vanilla ricemilk 4 dipping those-
