What's For Dinner? - 2022

[Winchester]

When Rick was a child, his mom served Brussels sprouts. Rick refused to eat them and they made him stay at the table until they were gone. He eventually did eat them, made it halfway up the stairs to his room when the sprouts came back up. His mother was not amused. For years, he refused to even touch Brussels sprouts, until I started halving them, and sauteing them with bacon. And when he told his mom that he started eating Brussels sprouts, she was still peeved....because he never ate them at home! We grew them in the garden last year (2021), but didn't get many.

We had pizza last night, so I'm doing the chicken tonight.

Last night I had garden vegetable soup w/wheat crackers. Tonight it's Chinese, I'm having Garden Vegetables w/steamed rice but haven't decided if I'm adding tofu.

Chicken Alfredo w/ Garden Rotini and tomatoes - Yum! (My daughter picked it out - it's one of her favorite and super-easy to make.)

For lunch I had Mock General Tso's Chicken and for dinner I tried the Mock Chicken w. Broccoli. They were both good but I liked the Mock Chicken w. Broccoli better.

Neither one of us was particularly hungry,so I was going to fix a grilled cheese and ham sandwich for us both,and he wanted a fried egg on his,and so he did.

LOL, I had bagel bite pizzas for lunch AND dinner. Just didn't feel like dealing with anything.

My daughter will happily eat straight sour cream.

I so understand your daughter. If you get worried about butterfat content, try her with plain, unsweetened yogurt. Same thing. Made in the same machines, but far less butterfat.

Lamb casserole, which was very tasty. Even better, they gave me two by mistake, so I get another tomorrow night!

I'm going to be busy in the kitchen with my cookies. Thinking along the lines of hot dogs with onions, relish, and cheese.

Her pediatrician was concerned she wasn't gaining enough weight at her last appointment despite the fact that she snacks all the time, so right now she can have all the sour cream she wants.

I made French onion soup last night. J ate mozzarella cheese and two bites of soup soaked bread. Every time she got an onion in her mouth she pulled it right back out.

Leftover Chinese food from last night for me. DH is having a chicken kiev with rice. Honeycrisp apple and clementine for dessert.

 

[catapault]

Pot pie with chicken, carrot, celery, pearl onions, broth thickened with cornstarch topped with dollops of biscuit type topping.

Apple cobblers for dessert, as long as the oven was going. Sweetened topping over chunks of apples with cinnamon, cornstarch thickened liquid etc.

Very pleasant dinner on a typically chilly December evening

I cleaned out half the chicken bones I've been saving in the freezer and filled my stock pot!I had hopes for chicken and dumplings but someone wanted buttermilk biscuits,so I made chicken stew instead.It was yummy,and I ended up putting almost a gallon of chicken broth in the freezer.One of these days I'll clean out the other half and get that made and frozen.

In-laws watched J, husband and I went out for sushi.

Lunch was Salisbury steak, potatoes, gravy, corn, and stewed apples. Dinner will be taquitos.

For dinner they had pepperoni pizza, marinated vegetable salad and chocolate pudding. At lunch I asked if I could have a slice of pizza baked without the pepperoni. The server said that would be fine but when I got the pizza I could tell that it was cooked with the pepperoni and they just took the meat off. I just ate the little dab of vegetables I was given. When I got back upstairs I made a tomato sandwich for my dinner.

I took some turkey out of the freezer and was thinking of turkey pot pie, with the rolled-out noodles, not the crust. But then I saw C catapault 's and lizzie 's posts and now turkey stew with buttermilk biscuits sounds pretty good!
