I was to tired to make a big deal for dinner tonight since I spent the entire day deep cleaning and organizing. So tonight was daiya Mexican cheese and homemade black bean quesadilla with a side of cucumbers.

@crafter !!! Oh those pics of the won tons looked delicious! Mouth watering little bundles and the best part is you guys had fun together making them. Carry on!
We also made a joint " whatever we have in the house " soup last night well before game time at 7.
DH was hilarious when it came to the base, or the stock of this soup. I was still downstairs when he said he'd start the soup.
I came up to see 2 empty cans...1 was a can of chicken gravy, the other a can of the Accents diced tomatoes and an empty jar of Classico sausage pasta sauce??
I zipped my lip, just looked over the pot in bewilderment, as he added water to that.
I went straight to the chopping prep, grabbing whatever I could
I managed to do thinly sliced onions, a handful of brussel sprouts, some cabbage, a few leftover wrinkled mushrooms, 4 leftover cooked breakfast sausages, the last few ribs of celery, then we used frozen diced carrots, peas and corn as extra veggies. We had no spuds at all left. :(
To mu utter surprise it actually turned into a delicious soup! We enjoyed that with a small batch of Cheddar tea biscuits.
@harbie your quesdillas look incredible! I will try some with black beans and cheese or daiya. Yum!
@walkonby omg I couldn't stop laughing re DH's soup base! That's phenomenal news that the soup turned out so well. Quite the team effort! Yum cheddar tea biscuits. Do you have a recipe by chance? We've been craving tea biscuits lately.
Veggie Samosas are on deck for dinner tonight. fingers crossed they turn out ok.
I'm not sure if its just an east coast thing (?) but I make the dough in the bread maker and the sauce (white sauce) and meat is bought; and the toppings are onion, tomato (seeds removed, etc) and mozzarella cheese, it is soooo good!

^ I think the sauce may be a different brand name but all the packaging is in the garbage now so I'm not 100% on the brand names but included the pic for reference. If you can find the sauce & meat its a delicious pizza!
Not sure what's on the menu for today! So far all I have is a no bake peanut butter pie that I made too late yesterday and it wasn't set in time! Too much football :)

@walkonby we grew up on “clean out the fridge “ soups. They were never the same twice but they always tasted delicious. I still make it today. Leftover pasta, rice, bits of soup, veg whatever odds and sods.
@crafter samosas are my fave :P
@KelJo that pie looks soooooooo good. Is it bad it’s only 8am and I’m craving it now :lol:
I think tonight is a fend for yourself night. Leftovers or cook something up.
Originally I was thinking Roasted Chicken, Mashed Potatoes, Gravy & Roasted Butternut Squash but I was busy doing other things and forgot to take the chicken out.
So plan B is Steak with Sauteed Mushrooms & Onions, Roasted Potatoes and Roasted Garlic Parm Butternut Squash
@KelJo I went on a search for Donair products locally to no avail but I happened upon this recipe that I thought you might be interested in seeing it's an east coast speciality.

hey @crafter and @harbie I am so very glad that I never over-reacted at seeing the " soup base " ingredients DH already had in the pot, because the words on the tip of my tongue were " wtf!? That is what you think is the beginnings of a homemade soup are?
I had another bowl already today....it's even better! Live and learn I guess.
@crafter recipe for the Bisquick cheese biscuits

Homemade fish and chips.
Well the best laid plans went awry as we bought T.O. fish and chips on the way home after our massive 2 store grocery shop. ( exhausting ). We did set a new record for getting all the groceries put away though....the aroma of the food was incentive!
Enough of that...... Later in the week we are going to make a Portuguese soup who's ingredient list hit all the right notes for us! Bought the Portuguese sausage and spinach for it today, ( we're swapping spinach for the yucky kale they use ) but everything else we pretty much had here.
DH has requested ( whenever I am up to it ) more lemon chicken! Oy! Did he know how much work that was? I will NOT make a full tray of the sk/bl breasts if I make it again. DS had planned to take another stab at Beef Wellington....so we'll just wait and see who gets in the kitchen first I guess?
Tonight we will feast on steak (and porkchops for my big eater) baked potatoes, green beans and ceaser salad.
Steak for us as well! DH cut 3 thick steaks off of one of the Metro roast of beef. They are marinating atm.
Sides will be smashed spuds ( oven baked till soft, pressed flat, brushed with butter, EVOO and salt, baked again, flipped and last baking to crisp them up outside ) , brussel sprouts, green beans for veg.
We will be eating quite late tonight though as we had indulged in a massive breakfast after all that snow clearing this morning.
Not like it made ANY difference, more snow has fallen fell continually....ugh!
Tonight we are trying 15 minute one pan sundried tomato & basil gnocchi
@crafter I made your stay a bed stew yesterday. I jotted it down when you posted it awhile ago. It was really good. I made it with mushroom soup and had a pan of whole wheat bread in the bread maker ready at the same time. Lots of leftovers for today
That is so wonderful to hear @KelJo ! :) I use mushroom soup when I make it as well! DH likes me to double the recipe when I make, he says there can never be too much left over stew lol.
I love some of your recipe ideas too. I never would've heard about some of the cool east coast recipes. Have a great day!
Time to dig out from yesterday snow so want to keep dinner simple. Going to put Balsamic Chicken in the Slow Cooker, then closer to dinner I will make a batch of rice and heat up some stir fry veggies.

Last night was buffalo cauli burgers. The pic was from the first time I made it almost 2 summers ago. I don’t always have the energy or time to snap pics.
No idea about tonight’s dinner. I started the day with a 12km(30 min) peloton ride through Iceland followed by what was supposed to be a light weight upper body workout but I used my 8lbs instead of the 3 or 5’s the recommended, then the full body stretch and the calming meditation. I also had to do my rehab for my foot injury and loads of laundry and some cleaning.
Decided on homemade pizza since DH mentioned pizza was on his mind so I made it with a side salad to have after his workout.

It's chinatown dining week here so i'm going to support local businesses by ordering their take-outs; most are $10/dish so not bad.
I'm trying to make a roast beef, roast carrots and potatoes tonight. DH loves beef rare yet I prefer it well done so I'm slow roasting it...fingers crossed he doesn't choke on dry meat like last time I tried to cook it the normal way. Wish me luck!
