What’s for Dinner Tonight?

[dizneegirl]

DH is out till late. I had an M&Ms Blizzard for dinner...

Aww...thanks for this. My Dmom used to make porcupines and they looked just like that. Good memories! I miss you, Mom.

We're having beef stroganoff tonight. I was away on business a week ago so I suspended our Hello Fresh order. That means I'm back to meal planning and shopping, and using the chance to make some of DH's favorites from scratch.

Funny! I was just making a grocery list with the ingredients to make beef stroganoff tomorrow night.

Boiled some potatoes, diced them with some onions and chopped leftover roast beef,
added some gravy and put it all in the oven. I must say, it was a very tasty roast beef hash.
Enough left for lunch tomorrow too.

Feeling better tonight, but taking it slowly on the food. DD and SIL are back from Disney, so they, DH, and the little guy had burgers on the grill (first of the season) with sauteed mushrooms and cheese, with Caesar salad (bag from Trader Joe's). I had a scrambled egg (with no "overt reactions," fingers crossed!)

DH caught some rainbow trout in the local lake last week and we weren’t going to eat them right away so we froze them. Thawing now. I’ve never cooked them before and DH tells me he hated how his mom prepared them. We ate a lot of fish growing up, but my mom only made ocean fish, never lake fish.

I found a few recipes on line and hoping for the best. Lots of recipes with the head still on, but DH removed the head. Bones and skin still in tact though. Some say to soak in milk.

He said if they aren’t good he’ll just catch and release going forward. I really want to like them.

I did a bad thing and ordered Chick-fil-A delivery for a late lunch early dinner. DH has a work event tonight and I needed something greasy.

Tonight is grilled burgers, leftover coleslaw.....and maybe some Cheetos

Cavatapi (corkscrew) pasta with crumbled sausage and broccoli rabe.

As I mentioned last night, we're having beef stroganoff w/egg noodles. DH & DS are having asparagus. I'm having peas. (Neither of them like peas, but they'll eat their weight in asparagus. The bunch isn't that big, so I'm going to let them have all of it. Plus, it's a good excuse for me to have peas.)

DH made angel hair pasta which he had with tomato sauce and I had mine with honey battered chicken tenders in sweet and sour sauce and soy sauce.

My daughter will be home late today, so I'm making fish sticks, homemade mac and cheese, and salad for the grandkids.

We had grilled shrimp over salad for dinner.

I had breakfast for dinner - scrambled eggs with a little cheddar cheese, breakfast potatoes and toast.

It was just okay. The skin and most bones pulled off/out easily once cooked, but there were still some smaller bones left. I was not crazy about the soy sauce based marinade I made. I did it because I thought he would like it. He kept saying how great it smelled, but the taste was just okay. Plenty of leftovers for lunch tomorrow.

We’ll try again, maybe grill it next time. I generally like fish fairly plain, he needs more flavor and actually prefers deep fried. I am not willing to eat deep fried anything more than rarely.

Also had rice and I ate tomato salad.

I am not a big fresh water fish eater. My father and husband both fish. They both do catch and release but occasionally one doesn’t make. My mom will grill the trout for my father. She puts lemon and fresh dill in the fish, wraps in foil and grills. My dad seems to like it.

Thank you. That sounds like something I would enjoy, not sure about my husband. His mom fried everything and his taste buds still like that

Made myself some more fruit salad and put quite a dent in the produce supplies last night.
Thunk and thunk on it and decided to finish off this week then start some version of a Mediterranean diet which my doc suggested even though I told her that’s pretty much how I eat already. Cutting out starches and cake, only poultry and fish as protein.

So tonight I’m going whole hog and having pasta shells, tomatoes, broccoli, chicken, ham with mascarpone cheese sauce.

Dessert will be mango gelato.

DH went to a walk-in this morning and he has bronchitis. I don’t feel sick but I’m not 100%. I went with nachos with leftovers taco stuff. Neither of us were really hungry but felt like we should eat something.

 

[tarheelmjfan]

I still haven't packed for an 8am flight in the morning, so no cooking for me. We're having lamb & chicken shawarma wraps from a local Lebanese restaurant.

Change of plans. Correction below.

I hope you're both feeling better tomorrow.
