What's for dinner?

[catlover19]

I cooked.

i made chicken curry red rice and sweet corn kernels. I had visitors. My sister and her idiot husband. They all loved the curry. It needed more salt and I like it spicier.

Yum. I love curry.

I got a 10lb bag of potatoes last week for 99 cents. Our grocery store sends out special email coupons and one of them was for a bag of potatoes.

I usually buy the cheapest roast that I can find.  I use my corning ware container.  I have a huge one.  Roast first, surround by potatoes with peel on, cut into halves or quarters and place skin down.  Next a pound bag of baby carrots on top of that and then a peeled onion or two, cut into halves or quarters for the last layer.  I do a surround with them.  Then I pour water in to about the level of half of the roast.  350 degrees for about 3 hours or until the roast just falls apart when you check it.  Yum!!

A vegetable pizza for dinner tonight. Rick has his Christmas dinner today at work, so he said to keep things low-key tonight for dinner.

We are having leftovers. There is gluten free lasagna in the fridge. I will make a salad and do some garlic bread for him.

MickNsnicks2mom, our grocery store just had 5 pound bags of Russett potatoes at Buy One Get One. That still was not as good of a deal as yours. I use Russetts for mashed potatoes and for baked potatoes (I dearly love baked potatoes), so I bought them. The store also had onions in 3-pound bags, Buy One Get One, so I bought those, too. I tend to use a lot of onions.

Steak sandwiches with pickled onions and sauteed peppers and mushrooms for dinner tonight. 

i've never seen a price for 10 lb bags of potatoes as good as what i found this time. it was at aldi's. these were round white potatoes. since i microwave to bake potatoes, the white potatoes work just as well as russets.

i usually buy several 3 lb bags of yellow onions at a time, then chop and freeze them. that way i only have to buy/chop onions 2-3 times each year. i have to wear swim goggles while chopping the onions, because my eyes sting and water so much.

a baked potato with butter and salt/pepper.

Didn't have the pizza last night. Rick came home from work and said he wasn't hungry for anything.....evidently they had a very good Christmas dinner yesterday at work and he took advantage of it. So I made a sandwich for myself and that was that. I put the dough ball in the freezer.

We need to do some shopping tonight, so I'm thinking dinner will be a slice of mall pizza.

 

[catlover19]

We are going shopping tonight so it will be something from the food court.

Nope, I use the oven.  And if I wanted to I could make gravy from the "juice" in the roaster but again I'm being lazy and so for the potatoes and carrots we just use butter for them instead.  Like i said, for me, it's a one step dinner.  When it's done I take it out of the oven put it on the table and it's time to help yourself.

For a change we had rotisserie chicken, jacket potatoes and coleslaw.

Tonight.  Nothing!  Husband is going to go watch the Bison football game and so I'm just gonna snack on whatever!  Easy Peasy!!

Mmm, that sounds comforting on a cold night.

I think I'm just going to make a vegetable frittata tonight. We're doing shopping and running errands this morning. And I have some things to get done around the house this afternoon. A frittata is easy and it's good. 

 

[micknsnicks2mom]

i've got sweet and sour pork cooking in the slow cooker now. a serving of that with some of the rice i cooked this morning will be my dinner. i usually eat my main (heavier) meal at lunch, but today it took a while to get the pork cut into thin slices for the sweet/sour pork so i haven't had an actual lunch -- just snacking on some mini pretzels, and will have some yogurt in a short while.

[@]a frittata sounds delish.
