Today was get the hair cut day,so I had to go to the store afterward,and he wanted lunch at Sonic.Nobody really was hungry for dinner,so we had cheese and crackers and a polish "salami"of sorts I found at Aldi's and sliced with some really good mustard.So good and hit the spot!

Today I made a small macaroni salad and fixed some beer brats with sliced onions for dinner.I also had some sliced cucumber.

Are beauty salons open by you?

While I was watching the lunch break segment on the news the other day I saw them make a recipe I knew DH would like, i.e. tater tot casserole. So I made it for him tonight and he loved it! Not my cup of tea so I had an avocado salad with bakery roll on the side.

Yes they have opened...last week I believe.They have a shower curtain hanging from the ceiling between each station,which I thought was clever,and they were busy too.

Those pizza pictures look yummy! And that's what we're having tonight. Friday night has turned into Pizza Night. I'm going to make a hoagie pizza, so-called because the shredded mozz is first, followed by shredded lettuce, some chopped onion, diced fresh tomatoes, and basil and oregano. No sauce. And I'm out of mozz, so pepper Jack will have to do.

I took ham out of the freezer for ham and cheese sliders last night and still have some left. I may sliver and throw that on top of the pizza.

Mine was a doctored up Totino's party pizza.

I added extra cheese, black olives and Jimmy peppers (the hot peppers they have at Home | Jimmy John's Gourmet Sandwiches). They sell them by the jar there if you ask for them. If you like hot peppers, they are amazing.

I have been in a mood all day and that calls for carbs. So waffles and bacon for dinner. I will make as many waffles as I have batter and freeze the extras for future meals.

Tilapia tossed with flour, dipped in beaten egg with a little milk, coated in bread crumbs and sauteed in a little oil. Jasmine rice - had to break into my prepps for the rice. And steamed broccoli - the microwave steamer bag used with fresh broccoli. Nice meal.

I made baked chicken breasts, wild rice and salad for DH. I had scrambled eggs with fresh veggies. Halo chocolate mocha chip ice cream for dessert.

Hot dogs. With cheese and onions! I know you are all just shocked!!! However, after the slow cooker pot roast, I'm definitely looking at more slow cooker recipes. I got FOUR meals out of that pot roast, and I'm all for something that lets me get four meals at once, with almost no effort!

I managed to get SIX bell peppers at the store on Monday! Three green and three red. Tonight, I'm going to prep and freeze them. One of each color will get slice, one of each rough chopped, and one of each diced. That way, when I want to cook something that calls for bell pepper, I'm covered! Thinking about getting two extra bags of onions and doing the same thing...slice, rough chop and dice, for the freezer, as well. Get all my prep work done up front.

They sell pre-chopped frozen onions at Walmart, only $1 a bag. I admit to using those when crunchiness isn't needed . But it's probably cheaper to chop and freeze it yourself.

I made "crack chicken" pasta. Idk if I did it wrong but it wasn't SUPER AMAZING like crack chicken is supposed to be. It was pretty good though. Just tasted like mac & cheese with ranch seasoning and chicken in it.

I had some mushrooms left over from making my pizzas, so I needed to use them up. Ended up making a fried rice combo of mushrooms, green pepper, onion and celery, with basmati rice from one of the instant cups. I think it could have used something to turn it into "chick'n fried rice" Maybe tofu. Or a faux chicken. No idea about tonight yet.

Patty melts with a simple chopped salad.

I really like green onions and saw a video on tv this week about how to regenerate them. So I tried it and it works, already getting new shoots.

I took the last serving of my chili out of the freezer, so will have that with some cornbread.

Tonight I'm having "sushi bites". It's just rice made with sushi vinegar, mixed with canned tuna and furikake, wrapped up in seaweed snacks from Costco, lol.

Last night we finished up the brats and tonight finished up Salisbury steaks and almost gone is the macaroni salad.

 

[Mamanyt1953]

Well, I was gonna have mac n cheese with hot dogs (and yes, I was adding diced onion), but I forgot to take the hot dogs out of the freezer. SO....um...I'm feeling honey-mustardish, and I'm thinking corn dogs (those are premade...pop in microwave for a minute, and done!

I have chicken marinating in fresh mangoes. My own recipe. We love mango chicken. Just dreamed it up decades ago and have not made it in a long time. I can hardly wait; not for the cooking, but for the mango chicken taste.

The emergency alert went off on my phone for a flood warning, it's been non-stop pouring rain here all day. So DH and I decided to put some veggie quinoa burgers in the oven and make sandwiches. Then we shared an espresso bean chocolate bar followed by a honeycrisp apple for dessert.
