What's for Dinner?

[SoonerTexan]

Two good ones lately:

Broccoli Cheese Quinoa: http://aranthasgourmetbeauty.com/201...heddar-quinoa/

DH asked for the leftovers. That NEVER happens

Spicy Sausage, Potato, and Kale Soup: http://www.thecandidappetite.com/201...ato-kale-soup/

Similar to Zuppa Toscana, but better. I like the spices they use and cooking down the kale before adding the liquid.

This one, which I have been craving lately:

Meatless but I don't notice it's meatless. And I use soba noodles and do the zucchinis with a julienne peeler.

Pan-seared porkchops with roasted broccoli. Low carb, by myself, while my husband eats his fancy drug rep dinner.

Herbed chicken with farfalle and zucchini.

There's a 75% chance we're having Chick-fil-A for dinner.

Culvers because it was spirit night for A's school. Yay, didn't have to cook!

I think we'll do butternut ravioli (from frozen) with maybe a quick basil pesto, and a side of pattypan squash (my garden has an abundance of it.)

Roasted a large pork shoulder in the crockpot a couple weeks ago and froze the leftovers. So tonight we had yummy leftover shredded pork tacos with a last minute thrown-together salsa made from several roma tomatoes, a red onion and a can of diced fire-roasted jalapenos. 10 minutes. Boom.

Dinner was edible! Woo!

Dinner was edible! Woo!

Yay! We had sandwiches. DH was on call, and the house is too hot to turn on the stove or oven. So ready for fall...

[WolfpackWife]

Yeah...I had popcorn for dinner. *shrugs*

Although I will hopefully redeem myself with the carne asada currently marinating in the fridge for tomorrow. The marinade smells divine.

Popcorn and a glass of wine was my call-night dinner tradition in MS3 and 4. Those were the days.

I have so done this too!

[medpedspouse]

Call nights I would go very, very bad. As in corndogs or something else that had no nutritional value. DH is a nutrition freak in the house. I wanted to eat without the guilt.

Call nights I would go very, very bad.

This or I would get so engrossed in "me time" that I'd forget to eat!

I had a salad for dinner last night so I could have some popcorn at the movie. Tomorrow I go in for diet counseling and have to start monitoring my blood sugar, so my week of easing into this GD diet is about over. I'm putting chicken in the crockpot for dinner tonight, and I'll saute some cauliflower and squash to go with it.

Side note, because I don't think I mentioned it here, but I did this a couple years ago, and with the new diet restrictions I just rejoined - I subscribe to eMeals, a meal planning service that gives you a week's worth of recipes and a detailed grocery list, and it really makes cooking at home a TON easier when you don't have to think of what you want to eat all week and make sure you get it at your trip to the store. Shameless referral link, in case anybody is interested: http://emeals.com/account/go.php?r=156907&i=l0 I do the family plan even though they have a 2 person plan, because I like the extra options, and I like making enough for leftovers to take for lunch and to eat on days that I don't cook.
