Saturday we took a quick trip to PEI, and for supper we went to New Glasgow Lobster Suppers with my MIL and SIL and we were hogs! Only place I've ever seen with lobster on the kids menu (1/2 of a 1 pound lobster, with all the chowder, mussels, rolls, desserts that go with the adult meal), DS has that, I had a 1.5 pound lobster and a lot of the side dishes.

Tonight was an experiment with my electric pressure cooker I got in May (Instant Pot). I've had great success with many things, but chicken wings are not among those successes. Either cooked too long or they just aren't suitable for it, they came out really squishy even after browning in the oven after.

On the IP (Instant Pot) front, I would highly recommend it, I've cooked in it nearly every day since I got it. Mashed potatoes are quite quick, I can make my taco soup that normally is five hours in the crockpot in about 40 minutes. Haven't tried my potato soup in it yet (that's all day in the crockpot), but that's coming soon. And I make yogurt a couple times a week!

Had a leftover hamburger and a tea biscuit.

I neglected to stick with my plan to make a slowcooker meal, but it was bearable to cook in the heat somehow...

I made ground pork burgers in the oven, had with mashed potatoes and fried-together cabbage, onions, carrots and peas.
Son was over and he was SO happy! Aw, makes a Mama feel so good!
Uber-simple meal, but very flavourful.

Grilled chicken breast with tomato, onion and avocado salsa.

Saturday night we ordered Chinese food. Yum! Worked all day cleaning/laundry so the last thing I wanted to think about was making/cleaning up from dinner. Last night my honey made a really nice pasta using up the peppers, asparagus, onion in the fridge. Was a nice end to the weekend. Tonight- We are on the run for DS sports so something quick and simple to eat on the drive. I'm full now so can't think of food

[Natalka]

Leftovers tonight - KFC chicken pieces, pork burgers, mashed potatoes, veggies - and I'll have a salad with mine.

[TooCouponCrazy]

Tonight we are just going to have Nachos, we have to run out after work tonight and I am determined we are not getting take out as it is not in the budget.

[dededi]

Trout, baked potatoes on the BBQ and fresh green beans(which were hard to find enough good ones at NF). I picked up a Cherry Cheesecake for dessert.

[padyofurniture]

Pork roast, mashed potatoes and mix vegetables.

[SunandMoon]

Ranch wings and risotto. I am going to cut up my watermelon and make a mango-watermelon smoothie--perfect thirst quencher on a hot summer day!

[SassyAshley]

Mom is working tonight so it is just me, thinking of a toasted roast beef sandwich with Cheddar and Mayo, cut up veggies and some sort of side maybe some fries or homemade chips.

[dededi]

Fried Pork Chops, onions, mushrooms with mashed potatoes and cauliflower.
