What's on the menu this evening?

[krystl]

I was thinking of doing the same thing next time too, krystl.

Definitely let us know how it turns out !

It was really good with the pork.
I have to say it makes the tastiest gravy and the meat was very tender and yummy.

Ok, now here's the hard question...

What cut of pork did you use?

[yankeebot]

It's 9 in the morning and I'm already looking forward to dinner. I have some apple pomegranate bread that is going to become french toast with thick sliced apple smoked bacon.

[LDG]

Mr. LDG is making lasagna tonight.

I'm doomed for February. Whenever he's home this regularly, there's no escape! Just this week, have "going out to dinner with" on the calendar for tomorrow, Friday AND Saturday.

[RhodyYanksFan]

I went to bed without dinner last night. I'm hungry now, and the dining hall doesn't open for another 5+ hours.

What kind of dining hall doesn't open until 10am?

[RYMASTER or Ryan_Yankees]

What kind of dining hall doesn't open until 10am?

A stupid one.

[RhodyYanksFan]

A stupid one.

You're in Florida, stuff should be open at 4am and close at 5pm.

[krystl]

I'm not sure. It was a pork loin I think. It was too big for the crock pot, so I cut it in half and froze the other half for another time. It's meant to be cut into boneless chops I think.

[4bronxbombers]

Baked chicken breasts, baked potatoes and green beans.

Sounds good.
I still have no idea. Shannen is working and Nick is at a friend's house. Hub is on his way home and I don't feel like cooking.

[Jersey Yankee]

Boiled meat. I picked up 2 thingies of goat meat (yeah, I'm sure y'all are kicking down the door fer that one), then some ox tail and some beef stew. Tossed 'em into the dutch oven w/pre-made gravy and some onions. I did some chicken legs like that also.

I'll need to make some rice, but the stuff tasted pretty good.

I picked up lots of lettuce (romain, green leaf, red leaf), then some mushrooms (no, not THAT kind), carrots, broccoli. This week's salads should be kickin' ... and finga lickin' ...

Got some Oatnut bread, so my triple-deckers should be interesting. I already have some mayo, creamy horse radish and mustard. I just need a wee bit more deli meat.

I used the electric grill to make some chicken breast. I should've gotten the thinner cut, since the one I got was slightly too thick.

Trail mix rocks!!!

[Jersey Yankee]

Po'k chops and applesauce.

Boiled meat

[xxltaco]

i'm gonna start with some white fish (any filet will do...tilapia, flounder, etc).

then i add it to a pyrex casserole. pour olive oil on top. salt, pepper. chopped fresh tomatoes. feta crumbled all over it. some herbs like oregano and basil.

then i bake it at 350 for a half hour or so.

yum.

Sounds yummy. I have some tilapia that I am going to make, probably tomorrow but I'd have to buy tomatoes and feta.

I bet it could be made with chicken breasts too.

[Jersey Yankee]

It's boiled in thick gravy, tomato sauce, lots of spices, not water.

Sheesh.

Corned beef is really boiled meat too. No big deal.

That does sound good, XXLTaco.

We went out tonight and I had a dish of edamame, a Philadelphia Roll, and we split cold noodles and sesame paste. Soooo good.

[jlw1980]

I think I'll get Chinese tomorrow night.

[CallOfTheCrow]

I've been craving Chinese, that sounds damn good tomorrow.

I had pizza tonight.

I had pizza tonight too. I'm totally craving some lemon chicken or teriyaki chicken, maybe sweet & sour chicken. IDK. Something chicken. Or maybe beef & broccoli. We'll see.

[CallOfTheCrow]

I always go for beef lo mein.

My bro gets beef & brocoli without the brocoli. He calls up the place & says "I'd like a beef & brocoli hold the brocoli" & I'm like "dude wtf?"

Beef lo mein & General Tsao chicken

So...your brother gets beef?

I love broccoli. I always ask for extra broccoli.

[Jersey Yankee]

Corned beef is really boiled meat too. No big deal.

I think that Ryan and Vicki think I'm just putting meat into hot water. Meats like goat, oxtail and others take well to pressure cookers, crock pots, dutch ovens. Do they think I don't use gravy, onions, steak sauce, spices, etc?

I need to make some more corned beef. That at least uses plain water, but with several meat spices, and likely some oil.

Pretty much. I dunno I guess they prepare it a certain way with a particular sauce & that's why he orders beef only.

[4bronxbombers]

I got Chinese food the other night - my usual: chicken with snow peas and water chestnuts and vegetable fried rice.

[Jersey Yankee]

I just ordered breakfast @3am from the local diner this morning (eggs, home fries, turkey sausage). I'll just make a salad and sammich w/grilled chicken breast, deli cold cuts.

I'll make both smaller, since I'm eating more trail mix than anything else. However, a bag of trail mix costs $1.99 (and I usually have at least 3 of them), but a head of lettuce costs either 99¢ or $1.49. *sigh*

At least nuts are healthy, don't spoil.

[LDG]

Mr. LDG is making a stuffed pork loin (prosciutto, basil, fresh mozz, etc.) with polenta on the side.

^^^ Laura, that sounds wonderful.

I'm making quesadilias (sp?) tonight. I have no idea how to spell that word.

I just made 3 batches of oatmeal cookies and I think I ate half the batter.

I'm sick from all the batter I put away today. The recipe says it makes 4 dozen. I'm lucky if I got 2 dozen out it.

[krystl]

Leftovers tonight.

I like the addition of chocolate chips and some chopped nuts to them.

What? So whatever did the kiddies eat?

I'm trying out a few thingies. I'm mixing a few cookies (short bread, chocolate chip, cream sandwich) in one plastic thingy, then some salty chips (tater chips, plantain chips, corn chips), just to offset the regular stuff.

Instead of buying stuff to add onto the salad, I just bought soup. Whatever's in the salad should already be plenty.

I only ate one of the turkey kielbasas yesterday morning, so I "toasted" the other in the toaster oven. That works well for beef bacon (drains out tons of fat), and both beef bacon and the kielbasa were toasted. Add a little pepper turkey, some muenster cheese, romaine and red leaf, and my sammich was complete.

Soup was veggy green pea. So tough choosing from that, chicken noodle and cream of turkey.

Wot-evah.

[Jersey Yankee]

Lasagna Soup

You're joking, aren't you?

[LDG]

OMG, dinner was sooooooo good. We had a few people over to attest to same. I give up. No way I'm losing any weight while he's home to cook.

[CallOfTheCrow]

Either heating up leftover lasagna or making a Boston Market frozen dinner.

[Sam18]

I feel bad for Trev.

[CallOfTheCrow]

You want to hire a hot chick to cook for me? I'll pay you with your choice of Ryan, Jamie, or bigwampum.

I think that Sam prefers you actually.

So far, my muenster cheese experiment is working. It's working fine in my turkey kielbasa, pepper turkey and beef bacon sammich. Wow, that's a lotta jive turkey.

I don't have much cheese, but ... my co-workers haven't run off on extended lunch breaks. I hear that the Army Surplus store near is isn't have a sale on these things (I think that Sam or AJ is the model pictured here):

I hope to talk JP into getting Chinese food tonight - I do need soup because I have a cold and I could really go for beef & broccoli.

It won't be long until no meat on Friday, so I'm thinking hot dob sandwiches.
