What's for dinner? - 2016

[catlover19]

Thank you, I will be making this next week. We bought a meat package and have 22 pounds of ground meat coming to us on Saturday (10 lbs pork, 12 lbs beef) plus 5 lbs of sausages and 3 lbs of stewing beef. We will need lots of recipes to use all that meat.

I wasn't in the mood to cook tonight, so I just made a quick batch of egg-drop soup.

Chicken pot pie soup on rice. Mmm.

 

[miagi's_mommy]

We had leftover homemade sloppy joes and I had some homemade baked wheat tortilla chips with salsa (mixed with sour cream to make it less spicy) along with it.

Soup tonight. Rick is having split pea soup and I am having chicken noodle soup. It feels like a soup day.

More leftover lasagna tonight

It actually sounds nice. I.notice you Americans use an awful lot of green peppers when you cook.

I know in my case (I'm American), I most certainly do. I also like red peppers as well. Not so hot on the yellows.

This one doesn't. I can't stand them. I like the red ones, yellow ones and orange ones. I love hot peppers. Regular green ones? Oh no. Never. I can't even stand the smell of them. DD won't eat any peppers.

I have absolutely no idea what I'm gonna want or make for dinner. Heck, I'm still drinking my coffee here! LOL

I have some butterfly pork loin chops and some chicken breasts and thighs in the freezer. Maybe I'll do something along those lines? Glazed chicken or chops, garlic mashed  potatoes and a veggie? Green bean casserole, baby carrots, steamed broccoli? 

Right now... it's more coffee! c(_) ~~t

What on earth is facing? ,

Peppers repeat on me. All American recipes I read have peppers in them.


Sorry. Typo. Facon.

The green ones repeat on me. I like the red sweet ones. What do you do with the peppers?

Facon is just a play on the word bacon. It can be used to describe any product meant to be a substitute for pork bacon like turkey bacon or soy based products for vegans, vegetarians or for people who don't eat pork for religious or any other reason.  

This is the one I was referring to

I ended up waiting to long to start dinner, so took a serving of black bean soup out of the freezer.    So still black beans.  Just no rice.  :lol3:

About leather, once I officially became vegetarian, I gave away my leather jacket, plus a Michale Kors purse.  I didn't feel right wearing them anymore.  I do on occasion still buy leather shoes, but only because I have hard-to-fit feet and leather generally fits better.


We Canadians do too.  At least I do. :lol3:

What do you make with them?

Rena, what a pretty name! Here you go:

This is an old Betty Crocker recipe from the 1970s....I'm thinking it was one of the Christmas cookbooks. Rick really likes it. It goes well with salad or coleslaw.

Sounds delicious.

I don't really understand what you mean by tomato sauce. Fyllis tried to explain. Here tomato sauce is ketchup. We have tomato puree which is thick. Then crushed tomatoes and whole ones in tins with juice. What would I use.

 

[stewball]

I'm afraid I had the same. Grilled chicken breasts, fries and tomatoes.

 

[rubysmama]

What do you make with them?

Green Peppers, right?   I use them in almost any recipe that calls for onion.  Not in place of onion, just in addition to. 

You can also do stuffed green peppers

Tomato sauce comes in a can.   Ketchup comes in a bottle.  Tomato puree sounds like what we call tomato paste. 

Here's a link that gives a substitution for tomato sauce using tomato puree.

Homemade Chicken cordon bleu!

I ate peach yogurt and Jello. I am trying to get over a bout of diverticulosis. So not much solid food for me for awhile. :nod:

Homemade Chicken cordon bleu!

OMG! That sounds SO good!

Made with some good prosciutto and baby swiss cheese on a bed of garlic fettucini alfredo! 

I'm going to have to make some of this soon!
