What's For Dinner? - 2022

[Winchester]

I was reading last night and one of the characters made Chicken Parmigiana for a meal. Huh. You know, that sounded really good. And I immediately went down to the basement and brought up some chicken and some pasta sauce.

Dinner tonight will be Chicken Parmigiana over a bed of spaghetti, maybe with peas as a side.
Because that's how my mind works!

You reminded me to add some burrito wraps to my grocery list. I usually fill them with beans or meat, then lettuce, tomato and cheese but I'm going to steal that idea for sour cream from you! I forgot all about them, I used to eat them all the time. Very good with a small dish of pepper jack nut thins

Tonight was my newest obsession---fast and easy Arby's cold turkey sandwich with tomato, lettuce, mayo, cheese and bacon. I got through most of it. I have hated cold cuts since I worked at a deli 20 years ago (I got a discount, and was poor as heck and lived on discount cold cuts and got SO sick of them!) but suddenly I'm appreciating the convenience again.
My grocery list is growing. My refrigerator is pathetic. Lots of eggs (Mom has chickens), some bottled water, feta cheese and some pickles and condiments. Current plan is grocery on Friday. I haven't been grocery shopping in almost a month and it shows.

Salad topped with shrimp ceviche (and maybe a few tortilla chips )

I'm a Eater and usually not a cooker. My DW does the majority of the Basic food supplies. I usually buy food items that she refuses to eat.

I had a late breakfast and late lunch so made a big salad for dinner with a few crispy wheat crackers. I made DH teriyaki chicken tenders which he had in a sandwich plus tater tots. Dark chocolate almond butter cups and honeycrisp apple for dessert.

Lunch was eggs scrambled with onions, red and greep peppers, and diced ham, with a peach/pear hot compote. Dinner will be...um...I forgot to look. Whatever is on top of the pile. IF I am hungry. If not, a bowl of cereal around 6 AM.

Last night was a huge salad: baby lettuce, radish, celery, cuke, olives, tomatoes, feta, a few garlic/ Parmesan croutons, with EVOO and balsamic vinegar.. It was so good!

No idea for tonight.

Our Chicken Parmigiana was so good last night. Even Dear Richard said it was pretty good "for chicken". Crusted with a mix of Panko, grated Parm, and herbs, then sautéed until done. Added a bit of red wine to the pasta sauce. He brought some green beans down from the garden yesterday, so I made them instead of the peas. We like them tender-crunchy, so I was careful to just throw them into a frying pan instead of simmering them in water. Added just a wee bit of garlic butter. Good stuff.

Not sure yet about tonight. I asked Rick what he'd like and he said mac and cheese. I reminded him that we just had mac and cheese a few weeks ago. And we just had pasta last night. His response? "So? You asked me what I wanted. That's what I want." I'm thinking I'll be making mac and cheese.

We used to have a Marie Calendars close by but it disappeared many moons ago. Nice to know that they're still around other parts of the country.

I have a partial carton of eggs that I need to use up soon so I'll probably have breakfast for dinner tonight. I usually like cinnamon raisin bread with it but the DKB was too expensive and I didn't go to the farmer's market last weekend so maybe just toast with cinnamon sprinkled on top and margarine instead.

Lunch/dinner combo was eggs and some bacon. I have so many eggs! I also forgot how filling they are.

I had a small amount of chili left,so tonight was chili dogs with onions and cheese.

I've been craving onions lately, I'm not a big onion fan to begin with but I've really been adding onions into anything I can. I don't think sour cream and onion chips are going to cut it

The most authentic Mexican food I've had is Chipoltle, and not the one 5 miles from my house. The one that's 25 miles from my house for some reason just tastes better, better seasoning and everything. And yes, I will drive 50 miles round trip for good food!
