We're having pasta for dinner after.......

[TimeforMe]

about 6 weeks of not having it! Three of us are on the South Beach Diet and have not had pasta in what seems forever. Being italian, we usually have pasta at least once a week so this is MAJOR for us. It will be whole wheat pasta, but it WILL have my sauce on it. Yummmm, it smells sooooooooo good right now. Also, it's a really cold, lousy day here in CT, so it's the perfect meal.

So what are you having?

 

[grinningghost]

Cold, lousy day here too. We had spaghetti and meatballs. It was delicious.

 

[onecoolmama]

enjoy it. I think DH is taking me out to eat..just us. I love having a date.

 

[piratesmate]

Mmmm, sounds wonderful!

I put a turkey breast in the oven a while ago. I think I'll stop to get some Amoroso rolls (a local brand with a hard crust MMMM) when I pick up DH. Then I'll shred it & we'll eat it hot on sandwiches with horseradish sauce. Yummy!!!!!

Oh - and probably green salads.

I'm having Pastelitos. Yummy!! One of my DS's is having them, too, and the other boys will probably eat raviolis or fish sticks.

Our big meal was lunch (DH works evenings) and we had steak, steak fries with cheese sauce, and shrimp.

What is that?
piratesmate: Your dinner sounds yummy too. I thought maybe they named the rolls after the girl that was on The Apprentice

 

[liznboys]

That's going to be the best pasta you've ever had! Enjoy!

We're having pork roast, rice and a veggie, probably peas. I'm hungry! Just waiting for dh to get home so we can eat.

Ohhhhhh how i miss those rolls.....bread just isnt the same here in the south....I miss my Geno's cheesesteaks.

I am having a sandwich

Yum! I love pasta! DS and I are Day 10 on Phase 1 of SOuth Beach, so no pasta for us. DH is doing Atkins so he does not eat it anymore either. We all miss it!

Tonight we are having grilled chicken and steamed broccoli--probably with parmesean cheese.

How is SBD going for you, TimeForME ? DS and I are both down about 5-6 pounds since we started.

 

[pirateofthecarolinas]

I just boiled some jumbo shrimp in Old Bay, ceasar salad, sweet corn out of our garden and some chardonnay!

Pastelitos are like a meat pie. Its dough, filled with meat (mine are ground beef), then fried. They are yummy!

 

[poochie]

Making spare ribs here for dinner.

 

[minniecarousel]

Barbequed steak, salad, zucchini stuffed with mushrooms & cheese. I'm hoping DH gets home early enough to eat before we go to DS's softball game.

 

[Dizzy-Disney4]

Spaghetti and meatballs here.Must be the weather up here in New England...lol.

 

[Scratch42]

We had new potatoes with green onion. Corn on the Cob. Salad. DD's fav, Pork Chops!

DW maranated a london Broil for dinner tonight, but then our neighbor dropped by with four HUGE grinders (subs) for us. She owns an Italian deli and she made these as a thank you for having her son over for dinner last night (no bother, the nieghborhood kids are always eating here). They were delicious but we still have 3/4 of them in the refrigerator. They were sooo big I couldn't eat more than 1/2 of one and boy can I eat. Anyway, does anyone know how long can you can keep meat maranating for??? I don't think we will finish these grinders for a couple of days, even if we eat them for lunch and dinner. Jay

It's actually going very well. I lost about 9-10 lbs., DH lost about 7 and DD lost about 8. We're on Phase 2 into the second week. Good luck to you and stay the course--Phase 2 is much easier.

Hi Jay: I've left meat marinating for 2-3 days before with no problem. That was awfully nice of your neighbor, wasn't it. I'm sending you a pm.
