What's for dinner?
Permalink  

Mmmmm...lentils.... That sounds good, except we're out of tomatoes. And I only have one green pepper.

Maybe I'll make the other kind... Carrots, check. Onion, check. Pasta, check. Yup. Lentils are back on the menu!

I ended up doing something different with my lentils. I figured I would try to get some down my picky kid, so I basically turned into a bean dip. (A curry lentil bean dip.) He ate some with tortilla chips, so mission accomplished.

Hey, sounds good. Lentil dip... hmmm... confuse.gif

Chicken stew is yumm-o. Cook bacon in pot, remove to paper towel. In bacon drippings, cook onion and some thyme 'till tender. Add two cans cream of chicken and two cans water and potatoes and carrots and cook 'till tender. Add some green beans from garden. Cook some more. Stir in cooked, cubed (or shredded) chicken and the bacon (crumbled). biggrin.gif

I'm making chicken spaghetti casserole from my favorite blog, The Pioneer Woman Cooks. It's not the healthiest recipe, but none of hers are, especially. . . her pictures are sure fun to look at, though.

My daughter suggested chicken and rice to go with the corn. Works for me.

I like that blog too Jen. I've even made that recipe a couple of times. Mmmm.

That's my favorite blog, too! Wow! I've made her Marlboro Man sandwich and it rocked! We're having that next week...

Anyway, tonight is chicken and mashed potatoes and gravy and some steamed broccoli and carrots. 5yo girl can't get enough broccoli. MrCoco is dumbfounded by this, not being much of a vege man ('till he married me). smile.gif

Last night we had butter chicken. That is some good stuff. Curry, the nectar of the gods!

We used a pre-made paste last night, but here is the recipe.

Tonight is baked potaoes topped with chili (beans and meat) and the biggest danged artichoke I've ever seen. (I had to cook it in my pasta pot with the strainer thingie in there.) I will be modifying my potato by removing the innards. I'll likely wash it down with a protein smoothie for dessert.

We had shepherd's pie, homemade bread, and sliced kiwi and pears. Not super healthy, I suppose...but not super processed. shrug.gif


(Hey arbi...can you steal the shrugging guy from N too? I like that one a lot better than this one. biggrin.gif )

Is this thread for RS only? Is there a scrapbooking thread too? Where are the EQ threads?

I hope there's no scrapbooking thread, cuz I don't scrapbook! laughing.gif
I don't think this is intended to be the RS thread. Just put down your favorite foods or recipes.
Or if you'd rather, just mention what game you recently killed and cooked. biggrin.gif

This thread is for everyone. Page 1 of this thread has quite a few posts by brotheren. This page has a post by Mirkwood and one by Valhalla (who is a dude, despite the girlie avatar.) I just started it as a place to talk about meal ideas. If you're looking for something more manly you could try this thread:

http://bountiful.activeboard.com/index.spark?forumID=92298&p=3&topicID=9003416

Or start something you want to talk about :grin:

Welcome, ACDC!

Scrapping books is just wrong. Unless it's a really dumb book.

Euph sweetheart... you put the "ING" on the wrong word... giggle.gif Scrapping books is not the same thing at all... And in scrapbooking I found out you don't even have to use a "book"... I do all mine on computer and save to CDs and DVDs... wink.gif

...either that or they have husbands that support their wives allowing them to get a few hours to chat and be social with other wives that scrapbook... I encourage my wife to scrapbook... she's too righteous otherwise... :)

Marlboro Man Sandwiches

My son just saw the picture when I was getting the link for you.  And he says, "Ew.  A yucky sandwich with worms@!"  rofl.gif 

I bet he'd like it.  I'm a fan of Calvin's mother:

"What's for dinner?" 
"Monkey brains."  
"EW.  Really? Hmm." *tries some*

Looks like a el-cheapo grande version of a Philly Cheesesteak sans the cheese...

It's your anniversary! Freebie day! No calories on special days like that :).

I meant to say something about that while you were here. Sorry I spaced.

We had pasta with chicken and sauce. Very original.

Hey...did you know that now the generic brands of Cream of Whatever soup are all creamy and liquid-y now? No more can-shaped toxic waste! (Although, it is pretty annoying trying to get it all out of the can.)

Cube steak is pretty much ground beef, ain't it?

Anyhoo-- tonight is the single most exciting thing in Coco's world. Yes, the event she waits for all year long. The thought that makes her happy when the world seems so grey... The memories of which linger in her mind and leave her giddy and speechless, or perchance a squeal escapes... Yeah, I realize I'm not a *writer* OKAY??

Anyway, it's the STATE FAIR!!!!!!!! w00t.gifheadbang.gif LOVE IT!!

We're talkin' cows. We're talkin' pigs. We're talkin' goats - the freakya$$ big ones that carry your tents and stuff when you go camping! We're talkin' Navajo tacos! We're talkin' chickens. We're talkin' rabbits. We're talkin' the Juice Man. We're talkin' samples out the wazoo. We're talkin' trying to win the flippin' Yellowstone snowmobile trip for the 8th time. We're talkin' awesomely beautiful quilts. We're talkin' coolio 4-H displays. We're talkin' wacko artwork. We're talkin' carnival rides cuz Mommy's not prego this year! We're talkin' the biggest horse in the world (which isn't quite as cool because I saw him a couple weeks ago at CAL Ranch). But there's the biggest pig in the world. We're talkin' beer bellies. We're talkin' mullets. We're talkin' brastraps with racerback tanktops. We're talkin' almost winning a scooter at the rockclimbing wall (that's MrCoco, not me). We're talkin' peach salsa from the Masons.

MAN!!! I could go on and on and on! biggrin.gif
