Potato Salad
Cucumber Salad

Had this fun idea of making tacos using a package of corn tortillas, as I have never seen these adorable small discs before.
I discussed this with both DS and DH and DS contributed suggestions for how to prep them, what to fill them with while DH flatly said " I find it aggravating to fill a large one, why would i want to play around with a bunch of small ones? "
There it is...... that FLY in the ointment! lol. We'll see if I bother making them now.

Tonight im making something i havent made in years. im making canenoli (spelling) with Ricotta and parmesan cheese, diced fried spinach and all the seasonings. A bit of bottled spagh sauce on the bottom of baking pan, place the canenoli on top and cover with rest of spagh sauce and bake in oven. Last few minutes sprinkle with mozza cheese and broil for crisipiness. Served with some garlic baguette slices. I wanted to make Bruschetta with that but dont feel like it.

@SnowFlakey ty for giving me such a laugh wrt DH negative taco take. I am curious with the Cannelloni that you'll be making
( yummy btw ) . Ar e you buying hard tube shells that you have to boil soft and fill? Or are you using fresh soft pasta?
I ask because I used to always fill those tubes up which can be messy without a piping bag.
But now that I have discovered Oliveri and/or Ole Solo Mio brands of flat fresh lasagna sheets, the task is made simpler!
If you are interested:
First put the full sheets into a pan of boiling water and par boil for 3-4 min. Remove them and keep in a pan of colder water so they stay supple and don't stick.
Next, slice each sheet up into equal rectangles that when filled and rolled up would be about the same size as the tube Cannelloni.
Place filling all along the longer edge, roll to slightly overlap on the other side, making a seam, then seal it with water.
Put each roll into the sauce ( seam side down ) in your cooking pan, when pan is full, top with sauce, cheese etc and bake same as you would the other way.
I have made these a few times now and successfully froze batches of the rolls filled but NOT sauced.
That made them easy to grab, thaw, sauce and bake.

Dinner sounds delish!

walkonby, i remembered what a problem i had filling the canneloni so i bought the jumbo shells and filled those. They turned out delicious, just like i remembered. I had enough filling for 18 shells. My oinker of a husband had 98filled shells yesterday for dinner and i had 2. and today for lunch, hubby had the rest. Didnt even ask me if i wanted any.

I made a large pot of Borscht this morning and i had a bowl of that for lunch. The rest, im going to freeze for winter. Tonight for dinner, our son and his kids are coming over and im making 3 foot long italian sausages and 8 hamburger steaks with gravy, mashed potatoes and mashed carrots and turnips. And i have a cucumber salad in the fridge that i made this morning.

I have to make something that is easily mashed because granddaughter no.1 had her 4 wisdom teeth extracted Tuesday and also has 2 chains in her mouth to pull down 2 adult teeth that never descended. Her face is swollen, she cant open her mouth much so needs mashed food.

Burgers-a nice day here.

[cath007]

Crusty bread with chicken -cranberry spread,cheese and fruits for dessert

@SnowFlakey that was a great way to solve the stuffing of the tubes......kind of like the famous line from the Jaws movie....you're gonna need a bigger boat! " In your case bigger shells..lol I think those are Manicotti....wonderful that your DH ate so many!
Got to admit that after I posted on here earlier I pulled a tray of 12 Cannelloni from the freezer that I had stuffed with sweet potato and cheese. Got them covered in sauce and baked up before noon but no one was hungry yet.

Now I've already made dinner....herbed sk/bl chx thighs done in the Air Fryer, twice baked & smashed spuds and corn on the cob. So there is lots to have whenever they get around to it. Sleep schedules are messed up again with them.

[SassyAshley]

Having a blah day but trying to get back on track with dinners so I pulled a bag of BBQ Pulled Chicken from the Freezer, we will make Sandwiches and on the side I am making Air Fryer Fries and a Ceasar Salad.
