What's for Dinner Tonight?

i think i may make manacotti/stuffed shells this week. yinz made me hungry for it. just need the pasta.
 
pesto pasta w/ a splash of cream in it. no pasta pix, phone interrupted that. dessert was a gingerbread man. here is all that is remaining of mr. gingerbread man:

Had this T-bone in the freezer so I made it in the ribbed cast iron pan along with my not-so-famous-but-nonetheless-tasty twice baked taters and fresh steamed veggies with butter & brown sugar. DW got the fillet and I got the rest. Christmas cookies for dessert.

I'm not a huge fan of beef, so more than half of that strip was left on the plate. I'll cut it real thin tomorrow and put it on some salad greens for lunch. And YES, she got the better part of the steak. She kept telling me over, and over, and over, and over....:hammer:
 
Ravioli and lima beans is what I chose from work today.
It was either that or leaving to find junk food.
Nice plate Joe.
 
i still say that's a delicious-looking plate, joe. chit, if beef isn't your favorite, it isn't your favorite. those potatoes look so good. the veggies, luv veggies & u hit upon my weakness- carrots

no dinner for me. the bar was emptied of good foods, so i bolted, arming myself by packing my purse w/ GUS soda (dammit, i despise saying soda, it's pop, 'cept the label says soda,-....... grumble) & a granola bar 'fer my early morning endeavors. gotta avoid them early-morning mood swings via skipping dinner & that.

Well, I hope you got something else in your tummy besides the soda if you're still 'tubed'..
I hate to think of yinz skipping dinner n that.
Yes.. it's POP. :yum:
For those of you who may wonder about Aubrey's way of posting per word, FYI.. she speaks just like that in person.
At first I was like.. HUH?? :flowers: smooch!
 
I had a great stir fry of veggies with grilled chicken strips over a bed of rice. Was really good with lots of carrots. Had some homemade bread that was nice and warm. Yes, I ate out today.:yum:
 
that tubie got removed & i unintentionally pulled another, lollie. no food in tummy. :doh:
i luv p-g, or to me, she's lollie. & yes, she has heard me speak. (u have the language rather correct-cute!) yes, i may post in ways that leave yinz confused - i speak pittsburghese, a language almost solely used in this city & western, PA-, except for a few things. see here: some inaccuracies in there, mostly correct, tho:

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Pittsburghese

lollie, you're a darlin 4 explaining 'fer me. may i add, not to brag on myself, i'm incrediously proficient w/ normal language, quite fluent. that is for times when i can think, maybe put pen to paper...... i've excelled @ languages- tho this is where i live & this language flows from me. it's inborn, it's so normal to me.
 
I nicely seasoned 2 thin semi-boneless chuck steaks with EVOO, my AP herbs and spice blends & grinder and dry oregano. Stuck them under the broiler till brown, flipped and let them finish while I cooked some scrambled eggs and that was dinner. YUM!
 
ahhhh, just finally got dinner made & cleaned my 'kitch. made flat iron steak w/ a plethora of minced garlic & less ginger, crisp-tender broccoli w/ a white cheddar cheese sauce, & multi-colored 'lil potatoes in black truffle butter. i made a cup of dipping sauce for the steak, drank a lo-sodium v-8 & some gingerale after that was gone.

I made homemade Lecho this afernoon (Sausage and peppers). Served over homemade mashed potatoes with a hearty French bread and butter. Washed down with an ice cold glass of German Beer (Kölsch).

OMG, I haven't has a good Kölsch since '93 when I was last in Cologne. I think it was Cooper's where they carried me out of the place.

Technically this wasn't a Kölsch since it was made in a friends basement, but is a Kölsch style...and very good.
 
i think leftover steak from last nite, as is. i was thinking a sammich & fries- the bread's gotta be stale by now, tho & the frozen cellone's is pre-sliced- i like slicing my own, thick. anyhow, i may just make a meal of the meat (i crave red meat & i'm ravenous for it so it's all gravy) range-top popcorn later, & pop after pop. yum.
 
Went to Ruby Tuesday for a late lunch with my son, then had the hors d'oeuvres @ the party this eve.
Might break open some chips and salsa in a while.
 
pork cooked between med/med-well, w/ parboiled then halved 'lil redd potatoez placed in seasoned kraut. an apple later if hungry.

Baked a nice boneless beef roast in the clay cooker in the oven. After 3 hours added cubed taters and turnips. Onions and more bigger carrots. Put 4 frozen dinner rolls in 10 minutes before serving. Damn was it ever good. Got enough for 2 more meals this week.:clap::clap:
 
thanks, lollie: 'one of those days' sux...... taco bell is good when you're in a hurry. or just aren't into cooking that nite.
pork is def. a New Year's tradition in my family & lotsa others. we're mostly German, so it's kind of a given 4 us. cannot recall a year sans. hope your 'one of those days' gets better, :mellow:.:w00t2:

muleman, that sounds so good, & extras only get better as they absorb the juices. yum.

I am always in a hurry.
Actually looked at what was on the menu at work tonight.. must say they have some weird combos for nourishing our folks, never mind the staff.
So it was a zip across the road to TB.
Tomorrow, I plan on cooking in my kitch!:yum:
 
good uuuuu get to cook tomorrow.

those menus, especially when npo & then allowed a meal later on that they picked: oh, they'd scramble to fix the situation to shush me. i appreciated the ones that made the effort, so i'd ingest @ least some to be kind. drink the ensures, too, if they weren't chocolate ones.
