What's for dinner?

Beef, it's what's for dinner.

popcorn. We're going to the movies.

Leftover roast chicken from last night.  I'll probably put it in a tortilla with some garlic and herb cheese and make a quesadilla of sorts, maybe with some brown rice.Hmm.  That does sound pretty good.  Now I'm hungry.

I have some ground beef I need to use, so I'm just going to brown it, toss it with some sauce and fresh herbs from my garden, linguine, done.

No idea. FI is trying to leave the office early and is therefore cooking dinner this week. *scary*Just kidding, his cooking is fine, he just doesn't do it often. And I told him he could cook this week since he's getting home early, and he planned two dishes. *headdesk* So I guess I'm actually going to be cooking/telling him what to heat up most of the week.

No beef here tonite..big e-coli recall on the news.Think we are going out.

No clue.  H will probably pick up a pizza on the way home from work.

Does everyone actually plan what they're going to have for dinner ahead of time? Because if so, I'm a giant slacker.

::sings Rodeo by Copland::Probably leftover baked ziti.  Yum!

Thai delivery. Mmmmm

kate51485

Haha no I definitely do not, lpstl.  I just have been thinking all day of what to do with that package of beef I need to use.

Does everyone actually plan what they're going to have for dinner ahead of time?We do.  It makes grocery shopping more efficient and I don't have to think about dinner everday.  I usually plan a week at a time though.

true story: I have never once bought ground beef, any form of roast or shiity steak at a grocery store, ever. I get 1/2 a beef each year from my job - all the account managers do, it's all locally grown and usually delicious. We do buy good steaks (ribeyes) from our meat market though.

Orecchiette with some form of tomato sauce with spicy sausage, bell peppers and onions. And a caesar salad & bread. And wine, let's not forget that.

I'm making some corn and bell pepper chowder for friends (am delivering it tomorrow night) so I'll probably steal a bowl of that if I'm not too nauseous. Otherwise it will be toast and peanut butter again :-\

Probably pub grub...we're going to trivia night at our campus bar.

kate51485

P2 -- That's awesome, I bet it is delicious meat.  Do you grind it yourself if you want to make burgers or something? Alix -- hot mama siggy pic!

true story: I have never once bought ground beef, any form of roast or shiity steak at a grocery store, ever.I haven't since college, either.  With all the deer, moose, and 1/2 a beef we get every couple of years, the only meat I ever buy at the store is porkchops and chicken breasts.

Thanks!

And to answer the initial question - I have no idea what's for supper tonight.  FI is cooking since he has a hunting budy down, so I'm assuming steak and potatos - that's his staple.

scoetto

lpstl, we actually do plan in advance. Otherwise we'd end up eating fast food all the time and that gets gross.We're having grilled NY Strip, homemade garlic mashed potatoes & steamed veggies. Oh and pumpkin cheesecake from Cheesecake Factory (the frozen form from Costco).

niffycat

Sadly, since I am now allowed soft cheese and deli meats again, I have been gorging on them. So diner tonight is Brie, Preschutto (sp?), and apple sandwiches, all washed down with wine or something caffienated.

opalsky007

I'll drink an extra one for you, sucrets!I love that I get to say "campus bar". I spent too many years on a dry campus.

LesPaul

leftover baked ziti with chicken that DH made yesterday.

Brie2010

So diner tonight is Brie,Halp!

sucrets4

niffy - I had no idea.    I'm so sorry for your loss.

sucrets4

opal - zomg, I can't even imagine!  I just realized that I work in a dry county which blows my mind.brie - hahaha!  Are you soft and gooey?

TurtlesAllTheWayDown

lpstl - yes, but just because it makes shopping easier and I'm weird about planning ahead/being organized when it comes to certain things. But lots of times I'll just plan out 5-6 meals and shop for those ingredients, then decide the day-of what to make. Then we'll have leftovers for lunch during the week, and the day I don't plan for we're either out of the house/going out to dinner/eating something from the freezer.

ac_in_dc

I'm sorry to hear that, niffy.

niffycat

Haha Brie I am after you! Thank Sucrets, last week was REALLY bad week. But I am trying to look at the pluses, deli meats, soft cheeses, caffiene, alcohol, no more m/s. Really enjoying the no more m/s.
