What's for dinner ( or lunch )

[hollydolly]

My microwave blew up and I was debating whether to buy a new one, a multi-cooker or a steamer. I decided on the steamer so today I tried it out, with Victoria Beckham's favourite.....steamed fish and vegetables. Very good too!

I have a steamer, I use to use it a lot but it takes up a lot of room on my counter so I just steam veggies and fish in the microwave... or often I;ll wrap it in foil and bake in the oven.. or even cook in milk in the frying pan

Smoked haddock baked in milk with mashed potatoes and peas is one of my favourites.

Mine too...yummmy...

Very hot and humid!

Locally grown yellow wax beans cooked in milk, iced tea, and a banana.

I went out for groceries today and then didn't feel like cooking.

So, a lettuce, tomato and red onion salad with a ham sandwich was supper just now. Oh, and 3 tiny coconut macaroons.

 

[hollydolly]

I wasn't really much in the mood to cook after being out all day in the horrible heat of the humidity... so I was late having something to eat, and I just bunged a tray of Scampi in the oven.. and that's all I had ..

Cooked a pound of bacon in the oven, since I had it on made some cornbread and an apple tart. I still have meat sauce left from a couple of days ago. I will either have a BLT or spaghetti, tart with vanilla ice cream for dessert, sorry it is still to hot there @hollydolly. We had a lot of rain so things have cooled off a little.

 

[Bella]

Meh, I don't feel like cooking either. I made some eggplant parm the other day. I'm gonna take what's left over, add some tomato sauce to it, and serve it over penne. That's tonight's dinner.

yep we're all praying for rain, but there's none forecast despite the cloud and humidity...

I tend to do that too whenever I have the oven on, I'll use it to cook something else..

Made a turkey burger w/ a velvetta cheese slice melted on top.
And some sauteed mushrooms.

Iced tea.

 

[WheatenLover]

I had a bowl of chocolate almond chip ice-cream, with chocolate syrup on it. Dairy group.

 

[Aunt Bea]

This morning I took a few dilapidated old mushrooms and sautéed them in butter with a splash of cognac.

I added them to a can of cream of mushroom soup thinned with skim milk.

That yielded two nice bowls of soup to microwave along with other odds and ends for today and tomorrow.

 

[JaniceM]

I'm hungry... so I just had a cheddar/potato bake, 3 white chocolate Reese's pumpkins, and will probably finish with a glass of chocolate milk

 

[PamfromTx]

Chicken tacos with the fixings.

I saw this ad on FB and immediately wondered what our UK friends would think of this pairing…. @hollydolly, @timoc, etc. for myself, idk. Maybe taking the pumpkin spice thing a bit too far?

Well if anyone likes pumpkin spice ( I don't ).. I'm sure they'd like it..

I don't like pumpkin spiced drinks but I love pumpkin pie, bread and cookies. I also will shake a little onto a baked sweet potato. Do you like pumpkin in any form?

For lunch / dinner today I nipped dpwn to a local cafe on the sea front for bacon, sausage, egg, hash brown, beans and toast

 

[hollydolly]

Tonight I'll probably have butter chicken, simply because I got it out of the freezer last night to defrost.. but I'm not really in the mood for it today..

 

[Blessed]

I have not decided yet but I best get to the freezer to take something out. Shall it be chicken, pork or steak? I think steak, have not had one for a couple of weeks.

 

[Bella]

Tonight's dinner is braised country pork ribs, corn on the cob, and a cucumber, tomato, and onion salad with fresh basil. I bought peaches to make a peach pie this afternoon, but it's going to have to wait for a couple of days until the peaches get a little riper. So, just some vanilla ice cream with blackberries later tonight.

 

[Shalimar]

Blackberries!

 

[Bella]

Blackberries!

Yes! I love them too! I bought them today when I bought the peaches. Last summer I made blackberry liqueur. It was delicious. I thought about making it again but just didn't feel like it. Maybe next year.

My wife just got in, and was hungry. So I made what was handy, all beef hot dogs, with sharp cheddar, and onions, on a whole wheat bun, with ketchup. Tonight it will be roasted chicken with seasoned small potatoes, and salad.

I hate having leftovers. Wish hubby would eat leftovers. I usually will eat some. Guess I need to clean out the fridge today. I'm eating leftover chicken taco meat with lots of tomatoes. Hubby is eating some shrimp empanadas that he bought at our grocery deli.
