What’s for Dinner Tonight?

...going to put a pork roast in the crockpot with beans a little later on and let it cook on low all day.

....interesting. I usually add a whole onion and a package of sauerkraut to mine....

......we are getting in shape for our fall Disney trip. Gotta be able to speed walk at rope drop.

...hoo boy - THOSE days are over for me!

I usually do too-well the sauerkraut anyway (I have an onion hater in the family.) I just happened to have a large-ish can of beans in the pantry and thought I'd wing it and see what comes out.

....what kind of beans? Kidney beans? Navy beans? Fava beans? Lima beans? Cannellini beans? Chick Pea beans?

Just a big can of bog standard baked beans in tomato sauce. I usually bake them in a big pan with pork chops but I didn't have any chops so I figured a pork roast would taste good, too. I zshush up the beans with maple syrup, garlic, ketchup, and mustard when I make pork chops and I think I'll do the same today.

....sounds like a plan.

....ham and cheese meatloaf with garlic mashed potatoes and gravy.

Something takes over me at Disney. Anywhere else and I’m a normal person

I don't walk long distances usually, and I sure as heck don't run. But let me see a Disney bus on the way to my hotel after a long day and I'm suddenly Usain Bolt.

Sounds like a response my husband would give

Splurging on calories tonight at the dine-in movies. Buttered popcorn and will likely split a pizza. The theater serves warm cookies a la mode also. It’s going to take a bit of willpower not to order those.

And east of you I’ve a pot of beans soaking for tomorrow’s cooking. I will not be a jhs boy and say beans are in the air…wait I did say that

I’m squeezing every last bit of summer in so we are grilling tonight. DH is having ribeye and I am having chicken. Serving it with local corn and jalapeños from the garden and tomato and cucumber (also from the garden) salad.

Last night we shared Bacon & Gorgonzola Poutine w/demi glace, because we'd never seen it prepared that way. For our entrée, we shared a bone-in pork chop w/ mashed potatoes & sautéed green beans & carrots.

Tonight, we're finally back home, so we can cook. We're having chicken w/ rice, black beans & sautéed fresh mustard greens.

I was a waitress at Red Lobster during college. I used to eat a roll and the Caesar salad on all my breaks. I have not eaten there since I worked there, but every once in a while I want a cheddar biscuit!

They didn't give us a salad. That may have been discontinued. We were fine with that, because we already had more than we could eat. We really only went for the biscuits, so we would have been very disappointed, if they had stopped serving those.

Thank you! We are heading to watch my son’s first football game of the season. (Go Monarchs!). It’s a long flight to SC from WA but I can’t wait to see him. He only gets a few weeks off a year to come home from football. So it’s worth it to get a quick hug before and after the game. We turn around and come home early Sunday. So it’s a fast trip!

I see it's a close game at the moment. Good luck Monarchs! I hope you have a fantastic weekend with your son. Share what you eat in South Carolina. I've only had bbq in Columbia.

I'll have to try that. I love sauerkraut. DH, not so much, but he's good about giving anything I make a try.

@BlueStarryHat & @kimmar067, what side(s) do you guys serve with the pork roast w/sauerkraut?

I serve mashed potatoes. We like to mix the potatoes and sauerkraut together.

Steakhouse dinner out with friends last night, coincidental to Slo's Steak Poll yesterday.

Back to cooking "out of the box" tonight and it was ground pork quesadillas with some nice, fresh-made garnishes - salsa, guacamole and lime crema (this meal kit included tons of stuff!!) and I threw a sheet of tater tots in the oven and served them with a spicy cheese sauce DH and DS both like.
