What's for Dinner?

Day of Fast and abstinence tomorrow.....

coffee
toast
water

Cajun style pan fried chicken breast and a caesar pasta salad.

Doing lots of cooking this weekend as I'm preparing stuff for the week ahead of time so there's less work during the weekdays. :thumbs:

 

Chicken Marengo tonight.

 

I just wanted you all to know that I really enjoy this thread. When I am able to log on, I go through it and jot down different ideas. Even when I don't have the time to get on the computer, I reach for my notes and can come up with something....thanks :thumbsup:

 

Spanish chicken skillet with veggies,, sweet potato fries, steamed broccoli, homemade chocolate ice cream

 

Asian style short ribs over rice last night, tonight is leftovers of either that or the roast from before that, whatever whoever wants.

 

Hi

I am a fairly new poster and I am thrilled to have seen this thread. I used to post on AOL message boards, Kitchen frugality, simple living, couponing, etc. But AOL has closed the message boards and frankley, I am glad. I posted there because I have a great interest in those topics. But the trolling, slamming and harrassment was over the top.

My name is Sandie, I am from RI. I love to cook, cook and cook. I love being frugal, or a " good steward" over what the Lord has allowed me to have. I love to use coupons, collecting them, using them and getting the best bang for my buck.

I am half Italian and half Armenian, which means food is our reason for everything. I am into baking a bit more lately, but cooking is more my thing,
I like to crochet, read the bible, fellowship with sisters in Christ, light houses, music, and much more.

OK enough of that.
Tonight the family, ie I live with my parents and my brother moved back in, had talapia and salads. I am very allergic to seafood and it was way too hot to make anything else so I had a ham and cheese sandwhich and salad. Not very creative, I k now but it did the job.

I would like to ask if there is a thread for posting recipies? Kitchen tips? Bargains? etc... If not can we start some of those types of threads?

I look forward to posting and being part of this entire forum. So far I love what I have read

 

Ann can you email the links to your other boards/forums for the other topics? Thank you

I dont k now what I am making tonight, I am going to my daughters house to babysit my two grand daughters while she and hubby go on a date. They asked me to be there at 6 pm. So I better hurry up and decide what dinner is.

Have a great dinner everyone

 

Sandi, go ahead and start those threads! There's a long recipe one around here somewhere, should be able to find it by searching.

There's seven of us, so cooking, trying to be frugal, etc. all is just a part of life. I was once told that I was a better baker than cook, so I focused on improving and really enjoy both. Usually. Sometimes it's just BLAH with doing it so much!

 

LOL, I've been canning for the last three days and we don't have anything prepared for supper! Oh, wait a minute, I guess I can whoop up some collard greens, fried country ham and cornbread pretty quick.

 

My own creation...chicken marinated and then a light coating and pan fry, then baked, then a splash of a reduction broth. (onions, smoked paprika, chicken broth, garlic, pepper, etc.)
Had it with hominy and fresh spinach.

 

Cafeteria food AGAIN. At least the company at the table makes it more appealing.:laugh:
