I had two large ceasars and a whiskey sour on the patio LOL
Now I'm having ice cream, best dinner this week.
Did a bit of a batch cook today. Made four personal pizzas on Greek pitas with turkey pepperoni, red pepper and onion, three personal salads and four servings of garlic/ginger/sesame beef stirfry (two of which were dinner for me and my fiancé). I am going away tomorrow for a week, so don't want my fiancé going back to his bachelor ways of canned chef boyardee straight from the can, cold!
Glad you got the Chinese food, holly - I'll still be craving some for a while yet....
Made a yummy Caesar salad, and had Co-op rising crust pizzas - deluxe and hawaiian.
Mexican lasagna - build layers in a pan using:
Small tortillas from Old El Paso kit (bought for the FPC Coke coupons)
Stagg Chili beans, (bought with coupons)
Shredded Cheese bought on a kraft promo netting free product
Fresh Chives from garden
Free sour cream from RCSS wub Old El Paso kits (just ended)
Cover with discounted aluminum foil
Serve with discounted frozen juice
Well my batch cooking was too tempting it appears. Woke up this morning with only ONE of the original FOUR mini pizzas left - I told him he will starve while I am gone :cheesygrin:
Also, I really don't get the midnight snack eating thing...
Tonight I'm trying an 'island marinade' with chicken that is very different from my usual dinner fare! Serving it with bbq corn and roast potatoes. I'll edit this post to let everyone know if it was good!
Thali's consisting of
mushroom/tomato Pilau rice
Chicken korma
Pea and potato samoas
Aloo gobi
chickpea cakes with spicy chutney
Yesterday was my husband's 'name day' (Saint's day), and usually I would cook him a special meal. However, he decided to cook his amazing schnitzel, along with mashed potatoes. He doesn't ever bother with a veg, so my son and I had marinated cucumber and onion salad.
About the potatoes, I usually make 3/4 of a dutch oven (I have three approximately the same size). However, he chose the corn pot (significantly larger), and made a whole pot, so I'm figuring there are enough spuds left over for two meals yet!
I made faux homemade baked beans, I took 2 cans of six bean medley and mixed in a bunch of molasses, brown sugar, mustard, salt and pepper. Then I simmered it for 20 mins just for the flavour. I put them this morning for breakfast (because I work nights) with baked chicken thighs and lightly breaded fried onion strings.
Saturday attended a Bridal Shower and they served a turkey dinner for supper!
Sunday was pulled pork sandwiches with salad (made the pork in the crock pot)
Tonight will be something with the left over pork ,I left some plain with no sauce, so I might make a pork stir fry?
Tonight will be veal cuttlets in sauce baked, some pasta and meatballs, some veggies and a tomatoe salad with mozzarella :)
tonight we had spagehtti and garliic bread(was only cheat sauce with my added flair not homemade lol)
chicken pot pie & left over mushroom soup
I didn't expect my homemade beans to get so many "likes" - thanks.
I usually soak the beans overnight and then let them slow cook in the crock pot with the molasses, brown sugar, ketchup etc.... The other day though I had a craving for them and so I took a short cut and boiled them for about 1 1/2 hrs to soften them and then I added the ingredients (without draining the water) and let it boil down and thicken - turned out good!
Tonight I think I'm going to make homemade macaroni and cheese with a nice big salad.
