What's For Dinner? - 2022

Last night I had vegetable soup, green beans, brussels spouts and carrots.

Grilled cheese sandwiches and clam chowder is what's up for dinner tonight.

DH came home with 2 scones, 1 blueberry and 1 chocolate chip. When I went to the gym today one of my friends gave me a slice of her homemade carrot cake. I can't stand having so many sweets in the house. I love dessert. So needless to say I wasn't very hungry at dinner and just made a bowl of garden vegetable soup.

Lunch was pasta and broccoli Alfredo. Dinner is chicken strips with corn and...something. You'd think I'd have the Banquet meals memorized by now!

Anticipating a major snow storm coming our way so decided to make a big pot of veggie chili now rather than later. Honeycrisp apples for dessert.

I’m trying to decide. The kids and huyhad an early dinner of Burger King,in my opinion it’s , while I took Baby D to the vet. He’s got an eye infection. I’ll look into my freezer I know there’s meatloaf (not feeling it), lasagna, chicken tenders and sauerbraten (which I had last night and the night before) Or I can have soup. Too many choices and I’m overwhelmed.

Mini-bagel pizzas. The ones that are the size of the old silver dollars. I had six of them. Not bad. Dinner, I THINK, will be scrambled eggs and an English muffin.

Vegetable soup and a salad with iceberg lettuce, a few crumbles of tofu and a few slivers of carrots. The soup and salad did not have much taste.

Yesterday and today very busy trying to get ready for this weather that's coming,so last night I stuck an Aldis pizza in the oven and we had that leftover with a salad tonight.Got all my grocery shopping done today,too!

Last night I had aleredo pasta, broccoli, onions, tomatoes, tofu and cauliflower. It was a little dry so I added some butter. It had a tomato sauce and it was delicious.

Last night the kids had burgers and hubby and I have penne ala vodka

Last night, we had soup (canned) and sandwiches. Nothing big.

My goal tonight is to make French onion soup with short ribs. I know I won't have a lot of time this afternoon to get the short ribs cooked the way they should be, so I'm going to try cooking them in the electric pressure cooker. They (whoever "they" are) say that you can use an Instant Pot, so I see no reason why a pressure cooker wouldn't work as well. And while the short ribs are doing their thing, I can cook the onions in a Dutch oven and then add the de-fatted and de-boned ribs. Using the last of my bread for the cheese toasts. A nice warm meal for a snowy Thursday!

I made a spaghetti casserole,garlic bread and a small salad.Delish!

Pork cutlets schnitzel style (pounded flatter, dusted with flour, dipped in beaten egg, then bread crumbs and sauteed) with sauteed mushrooms. Potato pancakes (shredded cooked potatoes with Cuisinart, mixed in beaten egg, flour, bread crumbs, formed into patties and browned on both sides). Brussels sprouts cut in half and steamed.

I made this pierogi casserole.

I made this pierogi casserole.

Sounds good. Something that I never had heard of before.

Lunch was meat loaf, mashed potatoes, gravy, corn and stewed apples. Dinner will be...something. LOL, Instacart brought me THIRTY eggs, instead of the dozen I ordered, so almost certainly eggs in SOME FORM OR ANOTHER!

The French onion soup was decadent and I think it may be my only recipe from here on in. It was good. I didn't have to do the ribs in the pressure cooker after all because I cancelled my eye appt and we stayed home, so I had plenty of time to braise the ribs in the oven. It was rich, very rich, and I suffered a little bit last night.

I have some soup leftover and, well, I'm thinking of thickening it up a wee bit. And serving it over either mashed potatoes tonight or maybe popovers. With roasted butternut.

Me neither, but I saw the recipe on Facebook and I love pierogies, so I had to try it. It was pretty easy to make, too!

I haven't posted here in a few days. I'm always starving at lunch but not as hungry at dinner. The leftover veggie chili came in handy though and another night I just had a bowl of cereal plus almond milk yogurt. Tonight I'm making ravioli with a salad and mini-challah rolls from the bakery. It's pretty cold here so I'm not planning to go out and if I get energetic I may bake chocolate chip banana bread.
