The Kitchen Table

What's for Dinner ... Tuesday?

12 years ago

Today was sister's lunch day at the Home with Annie. My turn to select/buy her lunch. I got us a 6 pc chicken strips basket and we shared it. She loved it especially dipping the toast in the gravy. She wasn't willing to share the toast. lol

For my meal tonight, I have a big salad with artisan lettuce and plenty of vegetables and fruit on it, topped with shrimp. It looks great. If I want something more, I'll have some plain greek yogurt topped with lemon pie filling.

So what was/will be your choice for today?

We are having grilled pork chops, roasted potatoes and grilled asparagus or roasted fresh green beans. Doubt I will eat any of the chops because of the toothaches....

Can't wait until tomorrow Glenda & Linda!!!

I made a great roast beef with potatoes, onions, mushrooms, and I roasted carrots separately. It made a wonderful thick brown gravy to go over rice. It was wonderful. Had the neighbors over for dinner and a visit. I had picked up some home grown tomatoes at the farmers market and sliced up some of those too.

Raven: Your meal would suit me to a "T". frankginakay: I'm glad to hear you were able to get out today. I like my own food but I really like going out too. Georgysmom: Sometimes a burger just fits the occasion, especially when in a hurry. Janey: I hope I remember to get some bacon soon. I like canned pork n beans too. Suzi: Your meal sounds so good. I really like pork chops. Kathsgrdn: An easy/peasy meal with leftovers ... good deal. Is Lauren home from school for the summer? Alice: That casserole sounds interesting. Wish I had a taste of it. Of course, your dessert sounds terrific. Pam: Congrats on your move. When is moving day? Aren't you glad for fast food places for times like this? Rhizo: I use dill weed in my salmon patties too. And I eat them without bread. I often have creamed peas with mine. Sue: I'd gladly take a bowl of your beans. One of my favorites. You can also throw in a piece of cornbread too. Shirley

I had a great lunch after golf today. Grilled romaine hearts with salmon and a Caesar dressing drizzled lightly over all. The salmon was cooked to perfection. I'm often not pleased with salmon. Sometimes it tastes too strong but this was delicious. I made four qt.s of gazpacho today (I didn't play golf because it was too hot, but was committed to the luncheon) so I will probably have a little of that tonight. DH can help himself. For Father's Day I made all his favorites. Grilled flank steak, potato salad, cole slaw and three bean salad with garbanzo beans thrown in as an extra, and chocolate chip cookies. Lots of leftovers in the fridge.

It's all about stuff from the garden these days. I've fixed a marinated salad of zucchini ribbons, rat tail radish, grape tomatoes, cukes, chard, quinoa, and goat cheese. (I don't have a goat in my garden and don't raise quinoa, lol.) Robert is getting ready to grill some sliced pork tenderloin, also marinated, to add to the meal. We had another big storm this afternoon, which cooled things off a lot even though it's steamy. If I wore glasses anymore, they would fog up when I go outside. It is "the air that you wear", that's for sure.

Marilyn, I love peas with my mac 'n' cheese. Yum!

Tonight, we're having halibut, garlic brown rice, and sauteed summer squash and mushrooms. For dessert, sweet, ripe strawberries.

Hi Shirley!
A gorgeous day here in Ontario!

I took the leftover roast beef, heated it up in crusty rolls, and dipped in the thinned gravy for Beef Dips. Leftover potato salad to go alongside. It was delicious!

I'm cooking a chicken on the rotisserie (in the garage, haha). And I'm making a mushroom and asparagus risotto......watched Ina make it this morning and it looked soooooooo good! We'll have some honey sweetened carrots, too.

Glenda: Two of my favorite foods. Enjoy your lunch and company tomorrow.

Orchid: Now I'm really getting hungry for pork chops. I wish you weren't troubled with your teeth though. That's a bummer.

Ellendi: Sounds like a great meal at your house tonight. I like any meal that contains chicken and stuffing.

Sue: Sounds like a comforting and delicious meal. Don't send any rain my way, please.

Alice: Could I get an invite? Sounds very good to me.

Jasdip: Beef is tops on my list and your total meal sounds delicious.

Rhizo: From one Wasa person to another. Not too many agree with us. I hope your dish is as good as it looked on TV. Let us know.

Hounds: I -love- meatloaf. Could eat it 3 or 4 times a week. And broccoli as a side dish would suit me fine.

ooooooo..... it's been a long time since I've made Italian Beef... so good!

Hard/busy day for me yesterday so dinner was fast/easy pasta w/ canned sauce (DelMonte is the only canned sauce I've tried that I like), with extras of sauteed mushrooms, sauteed onions & hamburger, and a nice salad w/ lettuce from the garden. But I was still hungry, so I made a rhubarb-strawberry sauce for dessert/snacking. :)
