What's for Dinner on Monday?

9 years ago

I made a skillet of veggies, black beans, olives, tomatoes, splash of lime juice and a couple of chipotle peppers served over brown rice. I had a couple of softening avocados, so sliced them over top. A hamburger patty to go alongside.

How was your day and what's on your plate this evening?

Good riddance to turkey, turkey chop suey, turkey ala king, turkey tacos and turkey sandwiches. A nice greasy hamburger with fries.

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!

I'm glad that you mentioned your worries about GMO, Jean, and that I could help. I know that I would HATE not having sweet corn (on or off the cob) . About the pesticides.....most will be found on the husks and silk. Once those are removed and the ears washed, the harmful chemicals are pretty much gone. Pork chops are a favorite at our house......pork, in general! I don't know which way that I like it best. (Whatever is on my plate, I guess!)

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 had a crock pot full of lima beans simmering for dinner. Then I stopped by Whole Foods on the way home to pick up a couple of things. They were having a fundraiser for a local charity that provides food to needy families. Whole Foods was donating the food so the entire donation went to the charity. For $5, you got an entree & two sides. I called DH & he came over. He had catfish with grits, collards & pecan pie. I had the catfish and grits too, but with sweet potato wedges and something called a root vegetable mash. It was all very good. The lima beans will be dinner tomorrow night.

That combo sounds great, jasdip.

While out running errands today, I remembered that McDonald's has their soups back on the menu. I got the broccoli cheese soup and a hamburger. No fuss, no muss.

It's warm enough here to grill outside, so we're having fresh striped bass sauteed asparagus, mixed rice and grains pilaf with mushrooms.

It's going to be too warm for several days to have the turkey soup I made Saturday, so I froze it. Besides, he caught the fish yesterday....yum!

Your dinners sound great!!

Rhizo, barbecuing and fishing??? Wow.

Carol, we bought a turkey on sale, because your T-Giving made me want a roast turkey. I'm planning to make a turkey pot pie; using biscuits as a topping vs a pie crust. A de-constructed one sounds good :-)

Walnutcreek (good to SEE you!). Breakfast for dinner is a hit with many people! We like it.

Shirley, burger and soup, nice healthy meal

OF, greasy burger and fries, not as healthy as Shirley's ;-) but ultimate diner food.

Ellen we love pasta, and made a great meat sauce on the weekend.

Deeby, your potato salad sounds good, for the summer. It's easy to see you're in CA. LOL

GM, I love quiche. Hubby won't eat eggs if they're hot (loves egg salad and deviled), so I seldom make it. I just have to do it and freeze it.
