What’s for Dinner Tonight?

[Giraffe_Zen]

The recipe I have is super easy.

1/2 Cup of room temp. butter
1 Cup of powdered sugar
1 tsp of vanilla extract
7oz Marshmallow fluff

Beat butter and sugar until fluffy, mix vanilla extract and fluff in until incorporated.

It’s supposed to be enough to cover two 8” cakes. I happened to use it for two 6” cakes. It IS a sticky frosting so to work it down around the edges of the cake, I dipped an offset spatula in hot water. I didn’t wipe the spatula off before “molding” the frosting down. Just note, it’s a very sweet frosting. The kids LOVE it. It worked very well with a darker chocolate cake.

Tonight was one of those bagged birds eye skillet meals---Cheesy Bacon Ranch Chicken.

We had a skillet meal tonight too - a recipe from our meal subscription service. It's a riff on Irish Stew, except with ground beef substituted for ground lamb because I loathe lamb.

I made chicken parm heros on garlic rolls with a pasta salad on the side.

Still have some veg that didn't get used Saturday and a few scraps from the prime rib, so tonight I'll pull it all together into a fried rice and call it good enough.

Just got home after being away all weekend so I am not sure, but... DD/SIL were supposed to take a hash brown casserole to his parents' for Easter brunch, but they didn't make it. I think I'll make it for dinner and either cut up chunks of ham and mix them in, or heat up some sliced ham to serve on the side. I'll heat up some sort of canned veg and call it good. DD and I are going out, so I really don't care what the menfolk eat, hahaha (hm. Maybe this will be supper for TOMORROW night and I'll let them fend for themselves tonight!)

I love it when a plan comes together!

My husband said he knew how to make an omelette. So I let him do the ham & cheese omelettes for dinner last night. Opps. It was more like a mound of overcooked eggs with melty cheese. Hahaha!! He tried!

Tonight is taco Tuesday! And I’m cooking!

Took a group of prepped and portioned foods out of the freezer so they’ll defrost and I’ll have something to eat for the remainder of the week.

Tonight I’ll eat the leftovers of the artichoke dish which I really enjoyed.
Trying to cut more meat out of my weekly diet and I think it’s doable but strangely enough the less meat I eat the more carbs I want. Think I’ll have a conversation with my nutritionist about what direction to go in next.

Texas Shepard Pie, green salad

Is the Texas style spiced up and zingier, or is it something else that makes it Texas Shepherd's Pie?

 

[LoveDaisy]

Pasta and meatballs with salad tonight

Big day in remodel world I got a new bathroom and laundry room today! That was exciting when I got home from work.

Spiced up and uses sweet potatoes and jalapenos

 

[WorldWacky]

Tacos, white rice and fiesta corn tonight.

 

[RangerPooh]

Leftover spaghetti from last night. Not big spaghetti eaters, but was craving it. Came out tasty and got the families approval.

 

[tarheelmjfan]

Club sandwich w/ chips.

Chicken Fajitas and green salad

 

[leebee]

Some iteration of chicken soup. Stock is already made. I need to shake down the fridge to see what we have for veggies, not sure if it'll be with pasta or rice. I'll also make some rolls or bread, maybe grilled cheese sandwiches if someone needs more than soup to fill them up.
