What's for dinner Wednesday?

14 years ago

We're ordering Chinese carryout. Both have been working all day (we really should clean more than just when company's coming). Only half-kidding!! I'm having sesame chicken and Harry's having bourbon chicken. Both come with fried rice and an egg roll.

What are you having tonight?

I cooked some dried lima beans. Had a bowl of them, and a piece of meatloaf I'd made earlier this week. It's so cold, windy, wet, miserable here in my part of Ohio. But so far the snowfall today has been only a slight covering. Shirley (Ellen: Glad to see you start the thread today.)

I'm donating blood tomorrow, so last night I had spinach. Tonight I'm having liver. Plus a multi vitamin. Because my diet has sucked lately. I just hope it's enough to get my iron up so I can donate. #26!

I had a big buffet lunch, so dinner was a black bean salad w/ tortilla chips, and some hard-boiled eggs on the side. :) I didn't photograph the salad but should have! so pretty... made with what I had, so red & green bell peppers, jalapeno, mixed tropical fruit, and green onions, dressed w/ lime juice. The eggs were made this morning -- the Polish way. A basic color test run :)

Pam, we generally eat around 5. Today was super easy, threw the ziti in the microwave! Laura, don't ever worry about posting meals, a number of us have breakfast for dinner and that kind of thing. Less-than exotic meals! LOL Sue, I thought your meal was so good, real comfort food. Then I read "tv dinner". Too funny. Raven, Can you ship me some of your leftovers??? Ribs and brussels sprouts. Oh yummy. Laura we like tuna casserole, I make a roux and put hot sauce in, and peas. Gotta have peas in mine. Pam we like grilled pork chops better than steak! Are your potatoes on the grill as well? Lately I've been cutting the potatoes in slices and grilling them that way.

Today was my big monthly grocery shopping. Arby's roast beef sandwich and some chips made my evening meal.

This must be a "don't want to cook" day--'cept for ravencajun and pam 25f. :-) We all deserve a day off now and then. Shoot I know women who don't cook at all. When their DH's retired, so did they.

Wife marinated a couple of chicken breasts over night in Italian Dressing. Cooked them on the charcoal grill this evening. Also had corn, stewed tomatos and Apple pie for desert. The tomatos were from some of the ones we canned last summer.

21pc.shrimp basket from the local Drive In. The shrimp are always big and tasty, fries are good, cole slaw a little too sweet for my liking but ok, and all for $8. And yes I walked it all off later with Leslie. hee hee

I was going to make a nice stir fry but I discovered I didn't have the ingredients I wanted,,,but in the true spirit of the orientals,,,I forged ahead with what I could find..

I began with two thin cut pork loin chops, which I cut into thin slices then I stir fried them and set them aside.

I then cut two large onions into chunks about a 1/2" square and separated the layers individually and to that I added about three cups of shedded cabage and stir fried that till the onions were clear and the cabbage tender.

For the sauce I began with one cup of chicken broth, added 1/2cup of soy sauce, three tbs of brown sugar and two tbs of chinese 5 spice powder.

I returned the meat to the wok with the onions & cabbage, poured the sauce in and brought that to a boil, then I put three tbs of cornstarch in a cup of cold water and drizzled tht in while maintaining a light boil,until the sauce thickened and I removed it from the heat.

We then put about 2 cups of rice on a plate for a bed and topped it with a generous serving of my goop...and supper was on...

It may not sound great, but I can assure you, Even though it was just Jan & I for supper and I made enough for 4 or 5 ppl, when supper was over there was no leftovers...LOL

Fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn. Yum! But, man it dirties up a lot of dishes. DH was more than happy to clean up after me though.
