I buy a fair amount of their prepared frozen pasta dishes because i cannot build a lasagna for 6 bucks. The seafood is my favourite. Haven't tried the party stuff from there, or anywhere else, do most of my own cooking, bad as it is, but, just cant make lasagna for the same price - the shrimp alone are 10.00 for the amount in that dish

Hard day at work. Just decided to dig around in the freezer and came up with fast, bad food. Didn't have much time to thaw anything out so had to settle for ready to cook frozen food. Fish sticks for me and halibut squares for DH. Along with some Bush's Baked Beans. I'm not proud of this meal at all. Probably throw a green salad together to try to redeem myself.

Pasta. Not sure precisely what, but it'll be some filled pasta out of the freezer, and what I'm leaning toward is the chicken/bacon filled sacchettini with a chicken and mushroom Alfredo sauce.

Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup for me...and yes it was yummy.

Ooh, I was in Canada for the day not too long ago and discovered the Presidents Choice line, yum!!! I looove their rippled potato chips

I made a pork roast in the crockpot so it'll be leftovers tonight, probably will turn it into a shredded pork bbq sandwich.

Simple stuff for us: sausages; panfried leftover potatoes; broccoli - also leftover from Friday. Haven't a clue what dessert will be -- maybe a mandarin orange and some chocolate.

ETA: SHOCK NO DESSERT CHOCOLATE! That's OK. TimTams to the rescue!! All is well.

whole wheat pasta with organic pasta sauce. And fish on top. Simple, quick, warm and filling. Iced tea to

this thread's so good for ideas




i ate a huge lunch so no dinner tonight

Nachos.............

I was in a "kitchen" kind of mood yesterday, so along with the baking that I did, I made a large pot of chili and a large pot of spaghetti sauce. We put everything in freezer containers for those nights when I have meetings or we're busy....that way we can have a quick dinner, yet not have to do take-out.

Since I do have a meeting right after work this afternoon, we're having spaghetti. With garlic-parmesan rolls that I made a couple of weeks ago and stuck in the freezer.

(Spudsmom, we rather like Bush's baked beans sometimes.)

At the moment, i'm having some cheesy grits before I leave for class (grits, cheese, lactose free milk, black peppercorn, sea -salt)

Not even thought about dinner yet!!!

Roast chicken-skin stripped off (because I ate it earlier ), leeks, cabbage, carrots, stuffing, roast potatoes, creamy potatoes, yorkshire puddings and gravy. Yummmmyyyy !!! Oh yeah and chocolate melting middle pudding after !!!

DH made homemade spaghetti sauce..and I had some Tim Tams for dessert

There's a pot of chili chuckling on the stove. I'm about to go upstairs and do some garlic bread to go with it. Dessert? Who knows?

Jack suprised me after class and took me out to dinner at Carabba's (Italian). It was really yummy! I had a chicken dish with pasta, scallions, sauce, tomatoes, and cheese & a cesar salad! It was a nice break from a really tough day!

Very delicious pasta last night. Penne with roasted squash, zucchini, red and green peppers, onions and garlic. Stir together with the cooked penne, herbs de provence, a little marinara and a lot of shredded mozarella and fontina cheese, top with parmesan and bake. Yummy!

Tonight will be another batch of pork chops from the freezer. Not sure what. Possibly baked with sauerkraut.

Probably Shish 'n' Fips.

Nope. Postponed until tonight, since I did not have the coleslaw makings I thought I had. So we ordered pizza -- just a swap of days.

I am doing a pot roast with potato's, and carrots. For dessert some frozen mango yogurt.
