What’s for Dinner Tonight?

[tarheelmjfan]

It’s nothing special. Macaroni, sweet onion, green olives, boiled eggs, mayo or Miracle Whip (whichever you prefer), a dash of salt and a dash of cayenne pepper. The quantities can be adjusted to taste. For mine, I used one pound of macaroni, a medium onion, a six oz jar of green salad olives (no chopping needed), eight eggs (minus the white of one since I like it yolky) and then dressed it to just coated (I like it a little dry). You could substitute pickles or other veggies for the olives if you like.

That sounds great! I never would have thought to use cayenne pepper & I love olives. That's definitely going on the to be made soon list.

We make our potato salad the same way, just substituting potatoes for pasta.

I had the “pleasure” of re packing today and tbh am too tired and disgusted to talk about it right now; suffice to say I’ll probably be shopping at Disney Springs as solace.

Made all the food I planned to take so that was a good thing. Only took 3 trips to bring everything down to the doorman. The security guard took pity on me negating the need for a fourth trip.

Wasn’t really hungry so grazed on the last of the radishes, gnawed on a steak bone and finished off an avocado and peach.

We went to Florida a few weeks ago. Dh and ds17 did a fishing charter. The boat owner cleaned and filleted the fish, we froze it, and brought it home.

Tonight I fried it, along with making hush puppies, and French fries in the air fryer.

It was quite good!

Tacos. Well, for everyone else in the house. For me - taco fixings on top of crushed tortilla chips. Having dental work done and can't bite for 2 weeks.

Grilling burgers, hot dogs, and london broil. Probably eating a bigger lunch so we can watch the Phillies games and then snack on leftovers for the rest of the day. Just relaxing and enjoying the day. Not doing much today, because we are doing a big tiki boat ride at the shore with friends on Saturday afternoon.

We made this a few nights ago and we're putting it in our weeknight rotation. There was a good bit of chopping, but it's a sheet pan dinner and light, nutritious and tasty. Served over quinoa or orzo:

Going to a friend’s house later for a pool party and cookout. The weather is not good today, so we will probably end up inside a lot. They are fixing hot dogs and hamburgers. I am making Mac and cheese and a key lime cake to take.

We are having a few friends over. I am serving shrimp cocktail, bacon wrapped scallops, and a cheese platter for apps. Our meal is hot butter lobster rolls, pasta salad, tomato and cucumber salad (cherry tomatoes and cucumbers from the garden), and watermelon. Dessert is an ice cream cake.
