The Kitchen Table

What's for dinner Wednesday?

13 years ago

Glenda, thanks so much for hosting yesterday's dinner post. Geez, you had so many responses you should be doing this!! I did read this them this morning and you were right. KT'ers eat very well.

We ate at Chili's. It isn't my favorite place but it's decent and the beer's cold :-) Not good news from the dentist--he's referring me to a specialist about the sore in my mouth (hence, the beer). After the dentist, I had to return some shorts to Beall's and get two baby shower gifts. Then we went to Wal-Mart. That store just wears me out.

Anyway, tonight's dinner is my leftover cheeseburger bacon sliders and Harry's quesadillas. They give way too much food.

Hope your day has been good to you. What's for dinner tonight?

You both do good jobs of 'hosting' this thread.

I had spaghetti and meatballs, plus cottage cheese.

Beautiful here today with highs in 70s and low humidity. My kind of day.

Monica, your salmon sounds absolutely delicious!!! Summershine, that is one of my very favourite comfort foods. We love meatloaf with either mashed or scalloped potatoes. Like you, we're frigid, here in Ontario Shirley, here is the broccoli soup that we love. Ghoghunter posted it a few years ago. My changes are in brackets. Broccoli-Cheese Soup 1 tablespoon butter, melted 1/2 medium onion, chopped 1/4 cup melted butter 1/4 cup flour 2 cups half-and-half (or 1 cup milk and 1 cup half-and-half) 2 cups chicken stock 1/2 pound fresh broccoli 1 cup carrots, julienned salt and pepper, to taste 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 8 ounces grated sharp cheddar cheese (I used much less) Saute onion in butter. Set aside. Cook melted butter and flour using a whisk over medium heat for 3-5 minutes. Stir constantly and slowly add the half-and-half and milk,then the chicken stock whisking all the time. Simmer for a few minutes. Add the broccoli, carrots and onions. Cook over low heat until the veggies are tender for 20-25 minutes. Add salt and pepper. The soup should be thickened by now. Pour in batches into blender and puree (or use an immersion blender). Return to pot over low heat and add the grated cheese; stir until well blended. Stir in the nutmeg and serve

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 saw the most beautiful, big green peppers at the store yesterday and they ended up in my shopping cart. So, tonight I stuffed them with a spicy, cheesy, tomatoey, ricey mixture and baked them with some chicken thighs.

Great meals as usual!!! Shirley, aren't leftovers grand? No thinking of what to cook and easy cleanup. Phyllis, it's nice to take something handy and put your own touches in it. Susan, I had to laugh at you taking yourself physically away from the kitchen to avoid eating more. I agree, the packaged meals are definitely portion-control! Pam, leftover lasagna sounds good! Especially with your snowy weather. Raven the rotisserie chickie and your sides make a great meal! Angela, your dinner sounds so good. I really like the idea of the pasta and shrimp salad. Cherryfizz your meal made my mouth water. Did you use chicken breasts?

Patti, hope you make out good at the specialist.
For dinner hubby had grilled cheese sandwiches & I had a turkey sandwich.
Very hot here in the 90's & they say hotter every day. I hate looking like a tomato all day.

Glenda, I sure hope your back is better tommorrow. Any idea how it got that way? I know how much you enjoy the friendship and exercise at your water classes.

Shirley, thank you. You are always so sweet! When I read "spaghetti and meatballs" my tummy let me know that sounded terrific! :-)

Thanks, Mary, I'll be fine one way or another! We're always in the 90's just about every day down here, but we're used to it. I much prefer it to the 60's. Haven't done grilled cheese for a while and I have some great smoky gouda for bologna/cheese sandwiches. Thanks for giving me a little inspiration.

All the food sounds good. DH ate a late lunch after golf so he is not hungry and I have no idea what to have for myself. It is getting late.....

I had lunch out today, celebrating a friend's birthday. Tonight we're having grilled Swiss cheese and apple sandwiches. don't feel like cooking, don't feel like eating. The sandwich is huge, so I'll just cut off a corner for me.

Hellion, a bowl of cereal? Fried egg sandwich? Salad?

Georgysmom, I have to say it again. You have waaaay to much fun. Keep it up!

We went out for supper. I had a tossed salad, warm bread and butter, and a tuna wrap. Hubby had a baked potato and a half a rack of ribs.

I ended up splitting and frying a hot dog and eating on bread. A few tortilla chips with guacamole on the side.

Boneless beef ribs, corn on the cob and baked beans. Were too full to bother with the potato salad and watermelon that was also supposed to be part of the meal.
