What's for dinner on Monday?

12 years ago

I marinated a couple of huge Portobello mushrooms, then slapped them on the grill! When finished, I layered on some fresh basil leaves and sliced mozzarella, then drizzled with a little balsamic vinegar.

We also had my mixed grains made with extra barley, quinoa, lentils, and black eyed peas.

Sound kinda wierd, lol?

What did you fix?

It doesn't sound weird at all to me....it sounds very interesting.

I made red beans w/brown rice. And had a salmon patty also.

Hi Rhizo!
Both your and Shirley's dinner sound good!

I tried something new tonite; roasted brussels sprouts with a balsamic vinegar reduction and dried cranberries. Oh my they are good! Pork chops and potatoes with it.

Glenda, that's a lot of food, but with all 12 bringing a dish it doesn't take long to fill up a buffet. I'm surprised there were no desserts! Raven, everything sounds delicious. We ended up having sliced avocados last night because the mangoes weren't quite ready. Way to go, Jasdip. You're making space in the frig for more of your good cooking! Shirley, I looked for green beans in the grocery today and they were awful looking. I wanted green beans and red potatoes so bad!! Yep, I think we all love our leftovers and most of the time I think they taste better on day 2 (or 3).

LOL Angela.......looking forward to an avocado!! Rhizo, I wish I lived closer, I'd crash your dinner. Now you made me want kabobs! Raven, I love a good sub.Haven't had a sub in a long time. Kittie, we love hamburger patties and broccoli. We need a potato though. OF, steak and strawberry pie. You eat well. Marilyn, tacos are so good. Now you made me want them, too. Glad I could help with your watermelon craving. :) Shirley, I always, always want ham, potatoes and green beans. I keep looking for ham on sale but it hasn't been in a dog's age. I think instead of craving everyone's meals and make them, I'll just have to make a road trip and visit you all!

You're welcome Grams! Is it okay if we use this thread as tonite's what's for dinner topic? I hope others add theirs here as well. I made breaded pork chops with simmered green beans and leeks. Boiled potatoes with butter and sour cream. Also finished a bowl of jello and whipped cream. Cold windy day, but no snow yet. I raked more leaves and there are 13 yard waste bags of leaves at the curb for tomorrow's pickup.

Here it is Grams. This only makes about 2 big bowls, I double the recipe (for just 2 of us)......Angelaid Crockpot French Onion Soup 2 cans of beef broth 3 T butter 2 yellow onions 1/2 T granulated sugar 1/4 cup cooking sherry 1/2 t kosher salt (you might need more if your butter isn't salted) slices of brown rice bread (or french bread) gruyere cheese (swiss could work too) Heat your crockpot to high and plop your butter in to start melting slice the yellow onions into rings break up the onion slices with your fingers, and rub them around in the melted butter add the beef broth, sugar, salt, and sherry cook on high for 6-8 hours or low for 10-12. It takes a while for the onions to get translucent and pliable Before serving: --preheat oven to the broiling option --toast 4 slices of the bread that you are going to use. That Trader Joe's brown rice bread needed to be toasted twice in my toaster to get to the desired crunchiness. --cut gruyere cheese into slices --put the cheese onto the toasted bread, and carefully float the bread and cheese on the top of the soup --remove stoneware from crockpot and place the UNCOVERED stoneware into the oven --broil for a minute or two--the cheese should be all melty and turn a golden color ladle into 4 bowls.

I'm in Raleigh at a conference for the week. Tonight we went to a really good creole/new orleans restaurant named The Big Easy, and had seafood gumbo and beignets.

Last night we went to a Peruvian restaurant named Macchu Picchu that wasn't much to look at from the outside but the food was excellent.

Gadgets, that's my kind of dinner! I made salmon patties not too long ago. I like them cold the next day, on a bun with cole slaw on top. Beans of any kind are a staple in our house.

Jasdip, your brussels sound spectacular! I mean REALLY!

Bob, isn't it fun to try out different restaurants when attending work conferences? Try to find a good, locally owned BBQ place. North Carolina BBQ is quite nice.
