What's for Dinner Tonight?

we're making a batch of soup, beginning w/ jus from the french dips i made as its broth, veggies, potatoes or wide egg noodles, & i dunno the meat yet.
 
It is cool today so I just put on a large pot of homemade minestrone soup. Family can have it for dinner and I will have some when I get home from work.
 
I made a pot of chili. Used up some red, orange & green peppers. I sauteed the onions & garlic in bacon fat, and went light on the crushed red pepper and chili powder. I was out of kidney beans, so I used a can of black beans. I couldn't tell any difference in the taste. Got enough leftover for two more meals for us. Oh, Cuban bread with butter to push it around in the bowl.

Hope you enjoyed your soup, Peeps.
I went to Jing Fong (again) and got sweet and sour pork n white rice.
It was okay.

I didn't go out for Chinese. lol
Nahh, I had what they made at work for dinner this evening.
They call it shipwreck casserole, but it always changes.
It's just stuff thrown together.
Today it was ground beef and green beans in cream gravy over mash.
Monica from the kitchen saved me a plate.
Had that and a diet Dr. Pepper.
 
All homemade from Tired's kitchen. Turkey Noodle soup with artisan bread and Peach Cobbler for dessert with Vanilla Ice Cream. The bread and Cobbler will be served warm of course. Oh, yummy!! :biggrin:
 
DW brought home Chick-Fillet chicken tenders, potato salad and fruit salad... leftovers from yesterday's Secretary's Day luncheon at her work, and it was damn good after an 11 hour work day. Best part was that nobody had to cook tonight.:clap:
 
Everything looks and sounds WONDEFUL!!

I had a green tossed salad with tuna and tomato topping and a side of 1/2 a roasted chicken breast.

Now I want onion rings :w00t2:
 
They're very easy to make that way Peeps.
Just make sure the batter is chilled and has set for a while in the fridge.
I use my fingers to dip them in the batter, then only drop a few in the oil at a time, not allowing them to touch.
If I were to have made a large batch, half of them would have been burned.
 
Who's your fruit?:doh:
I try to eat a balance of fruits and veggies every day. It helps offset the snacks and meats I eat too much of. I must be doing something right cause the docs don't know why my cell counts are improving. I have been short on pie for a while though!:clap::clap:
