What’s for Dinner Tonight?

Our friends son had a fundraiser for his Eagle Scout project so we had a late lunch there. They had pulled pork and chicken sandwiches with pasta and potato salad and desserts. He did a great job with event and raised half of what he needs for his project.
 
Made a hamburger and served it with large curd cottage cheese (love that stuff and no idea why it’s so hard to find nowadays; it’s like small curd is a trend I missed), arugula, cuke slices and roasted tomatoes. Had a cup of veggie soup first and an vanilla ice cream and Coke float, after.
Comfort food galore!
 

Homemade macaroni and cheese. It's my mom's recipe, starting with making a white sauce and going from there. My mom was known in the family for her mac and cheese, and every time we had a gathering, she'd be asked to bring it. She never had a recipe so it took me years to get the spicing down correctly, but my older cousins say it is EXACTLY like what my mom used to make. It is probably my very favorite food on the face of the Earth, and I am sitting here, happily full and struggling to keep my eyes open!
 
Chicken pounded thin, stuffed with stuffing and rolled then brushed on melted butter and rolled in bread crumbs and baked with scalloped potatoes and roasted asparagus.

We have just about used up the garden potatoes but my parents went to the potato farm and bought 100 pounds so there will be lots more potato dishes in the future.
 
Planned was london broil but neither one of us was in the mood and we have to head to my parents' tomorrow for our usual couple of days so we just kept it easy. DH had a bagel sandwich and I re-heated a buffalo chicken mini pizza (I made a bunch the other night specifically for leftovers).
 
Well, limited ingredients from the refrigerator. DH left the door open again.

Tonight is meatloaf (had to throw the cole slaw away, so green salad and baked sweet potato

Sounds like a fridge alarm would make your life easier; it certainly allowed the man to live longer….

I’m just back from the farmers’ market where I purchased a beautiful head of cabbage which I’m going to turn into cabbage steaks ( YouTube can be inspiring!) and roast. Think I’ll grill some kielbasa with it and dinner will be done. Oh and just for the record still NO parsnips, GRR.

It was just opened about an inch and it does beep if it is left open for more than 5 minutes, but he doesn't hear well and he was probably in his office with the door closed.
After awhile it turns off.
We have been having several problems with this refrigerator, so looking at getting a new one.
The doors were originally ones that closed on their own.....and that is one of the problems. That stopped. The ice maker doesn't work anymore and it sometimes leaks from the bottom of the refrigerator side.
It is a counter depth one, so very expensive. But we're just going to have to do it
 
Rice and ground beef and a salad.

One of my comfort meals is browned ground beef, over rice, covered in stewed tomatoes and some lemon pepper seasoning. It was one my grandma made for my mom, and she for me. Your meal made me smile :)

Tonight - if the kid-at-home remembered to take out ground beef for me, I will make a pot of chili. If he forgot, it is refried bean and onion enchiladas.
