The Official What's For Dinner thread:Thursday 1-24-08? Recipe finder in OP. Enjoy! Part 2

[LuluLovesDisney]

I made a chicken, rotini, tomato and mushroom casserole with mozzarella and some salad to go with. I'm really in need of comfort food. I finished three observations in the past few weeks and I have one more to go (sometime this week) and I'm upset because I was passed over for bridesmaid for one of my best friends' wedding.

I might even try to make something comforting yet slightly healthy for dessert. Any ideas?

Sheryl, Sorry the contractor cancelled. I too can use some recipes for the mixer...I am a terrible baker and usually use the boxed stuff...I guess you really have to measure when you bake, usually I throw stuff together!!!...

That's me too! I usually use recipes as a "guide" when I'm cooking! Can't do that when you bake, can you?

Thanks Lauren for being concerned about my contractor woes! If I'm this stressed out just trying to get someone to come work in our house, I can't imagine what it will be like once the work starts! I'll be asking everyone to send me wine & chocolate!

Well, if wine and chocolate are in the mix, we should all get together and do the work...women get stuff done quicker any way!!!

Did someone mention wine and chocolate? Count me in.....

Tonight's dinner is a pork roast I have in the crockpot. I plan on making a quick fried rice to go with it.

Have a great day everyone.

Hey, I have a pork roast in the crock pot too! It was marinated with some barbecue rub spices, and I'm thinking I may pour the liquid into a pan and reduce it, then mix in some sour cream for a sauce. I'll either steam some cauliflower to go with it or just make a salad - haven't decided which yet.

EVOO= Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Rachael Ray speak)

 

[LindsayDunn228]

Tonight will have leftover Provencal stoup and bread. I doubled up on the veggies this time and boy was it yummy!!!!

WFD at your house?

 

[TigerKat]

Good morning everyone!

Tonight I'm doing a recipe from Glynis' website - Creamy Tomato Chicken. Haven't decided on sides yet.

Off to work......

 

[nucpharm29]

Last night's dinner was really good. And, believe it or not, both kids ate some! Tonight is going to be Chicken with sweet and hot peppers. It's a Rachael Ray recipe, but I'm substituting chicken for pork. I'll post last night's recipe when I get a chance later today!

Hi All!

It is going up to 74 here today so we are going to grill some steaks and I have not idea about sides yet. I never made broccolirabe yesterday so I will probably make that...but creamed spinach goes so good with steak...ohm such decisions!!!

Have a great day all!!!

BTW, I may be going to Sheryl's ...I here the pay is good for home renovations!!!

WFD? Grilled Italian sausage on sub rolls with peppers and onions. Probably corn for a veggie.

This afternoon is DS's "Honor Roll Ice Cream Social". His lowest grade was a 96%. I don't know where he gets it from because his father and I certainly didn't get those grades in school. Sorry for bragging, I'm just so proud of him.

You should be proud!! Congrats to your ds!!

Morning Y'all!

I haven't figured out WFD yet. Maybe just leftover white beans & rice.

Sandy, Go ahead & brag! He did a great job!

I have another contractor scheduled to come out this evening! I'm just about ready to give up on that!

I'll just hire Kathy, & Lauren! I'll start working on that menu! Dessert will have to be something gooey & chocolate with several bottles of Banfi Rosa Regale!!!

Sandy, This is wonderful!!! Congratulations to your son and have fun at the party!

Good Morning everyone! Wow this has been a busy thread lately!

First, Welcome Bless7ings! My DD said that she referred the WFD to someone she was chatting with yesterday. I hope it was you!

Lulu- Sweetie, I can't make you feel better about the wedding, but I will share with you that while I have not been in too many, each one was a headache! There is sometimes a "glitch" that happens when a bride starts planning a wedding . I don't know what it is but it ain't pretty!

You must be so proud of him! to your DS on his accomplishments, and keep sharing them with us! I love good news!

Tonite is meatloaf and some kind of potato. I have to use up the meat I thawed when I was so grouchy!
