what's for dinner - thursday, feb 26

[fizzgig]

it cold and flurries here today, so i'm tossing a pork roast in the crock pot. i'll shred it, top with bbq sauce and make sandwiches. left over mashed on the side.

i know i have no right to kvetch about the cold, but it's been such a mild winter that it's a shock.

1. Lasagna

I have to work late tonight, so an easy Stouffer's lasagna in the oven is in order. With a small salad, and a glass (or three) of wine. Friday is a day off for me...

[fizzgig]

14. i usually have one of those in the freezer

it's something the husband will actually make and have ready for me when i get home, so i keep them around for the nights i know i'm going to be hungry as soon as i walk in the door.

2. Cheeseburger! Or pasta with red sauce. A salad in either event.

In other words, I'm making something with ground meat.

[Aerows]

5. Yep, I have to have some calories

I've lost like 10 lbs. that I couldn't afford to lose in the first place. I need a big, sticky cheeseburger with hash browns from Waffle House.

[HappyMe]

3. Cheesesteak thingy

that I make with crescent roll dough, sandwich steaks, mushroom, onions, green pepper and cheddar.


I have sauce on the stove for lasagna tomorrow.

[fizzgig]

15. i never think to do roll-ups like that

thanks for the idea

[Aerows]

4. It's cold

I'm tired, I'm having something horrible for me, but that I love.

Waffle House Double Angus patty melt, and hashbrowns scattered, smothered and covered.

Every now and then amidst eating healthy beans and rice, or delicious grilled meat, I need some calories.

[fizzgig]

16. nothing wrong with the occasional gut bomb

hope it was everything you wanted

[Aerows]

25. Oh, and it *WAS*

I think that is the best chunk of a hamburger I've eaten in quite a while. It was juicy, full o' onions, and I had a pile of hashbrowns.

I don't eat that way often, I'm usually pretty healthy, but I needed it.

6. Hamburger and a salad.

[fizzgig]

17. it's been a bit since i've had a good burger

sounds tasty

[pscot]

7. Asparagus beef stir fry

It was pretty good.

[fizzgig]

18. i haven't done a stir fry for a long time

i need to remedy that.

[cbayer]

8. Mashed potatoes.

Poor DH has had a week of dental work and is feeling poorly. Will chop up some rotisserie chicken for him and am making some goat cheese and garlic mashers.

Hope you are well.

[fizzgig]

19. poor husband

dental work is the pits. i hope he gets to feeling better soon.

all is well here. hope all is well with you

[raven mad]

9. Great minds do think alike, fizzgig!

I've got pork chops with apples ready to bake! It's warm here for this time of year, about 20 above, but I do love my pork!

[fizzgig]

20. i have some left over pork chops in the fridge

i'll turn them into sandwiches tomorrow. we've eaten pork this week, but it's what was in the freezer.

we've been in the 40s and 50s most of the winter, but the snow and cold has finally hit.

[pinto]

10. Went for the cheeseburger - Sauteed onion, peperoncinis, the burger & sharp cheddar.

Open faced on some lettuce, topped with Dijon mustard, mayo & ketchup sauce. Salty sliced cucumbers and radish on the side.

Wish I had made two...

[fizzgig]

21. yum

[Aerows]

27. Oh yeah, pinto

Now that is a BURGER. I agree that you should have made two, could stick one in the fridge .

[hobbit709]

11. Grilled ribeyes, stuffed mushroom caps, grape tomatoes, raspberry cream cheese crumb cake.

[fizzgig]

22. that cake sounds mighty tasty

dinner doesn't sound that bad, either.

[Nay]

12. I made meatloaf and a cheesy squash casserole w nutmeg and red pepper. Great for

dinner after I had to shovel the goddamned driveway AGAIN.

[fizzgig]

23. i am so glad i'm not responsible for snow removal

i feel for you guys.

[Nay]

28. I shouldn't complain. We don't have snow in the amounts that the poor NE does -- in two weeks,

we've had 2 storms dumping 7 inches of snow each. To get out of our driveway (or, more correctly, to get back UP our driveway), it has to be shoveled.

But it's nothing like Boston.

13. soup, leftover meatballs

I made the most incredible soup. Used no recipe; just did it to taste.

Chopped onion, carrot, celery, rutabaga, in vegetable broth that I also made myself. Added TJs butternut squash raviolis. Put in chopped spinach and fresh oregano, too.

Meatballs with sririachi sauce.

[fizzgig]

24. i love those kind of soups

sounds amazing

[Aerows]

26. Looks like I'm not alone in feeling the need for beef

or a pork chop

Great stomachs think alike
