What's for dinner ( or lunch )

[StarSong]

No Holly. Going back to snow country, New York, to be near children. Need some medical help, now and then, and my daughter is a nurse and advisor.

How long have you lived in FL full time, @Pappy?

 

[Twostep]

Vegetable soup and chorizo burrito.

Absolutely Starsong. Won’t miss hurricanes though.

broccoli-cauliflower casserole with a handful of air fried panko chicken nuggets

I love broccy-cauli. This sounds tasty, what did you use for moisture? Thanks, @Lizzie00

 

[Pappy]

Our neighbor brought over dressing, potatoes and gravy. No turkey so we had a Ham slice with it.

I remember very well when you moved there full time, Pappy.....

I ran the dishwasher for lunch and then warmed up my leftover pork loin ragout with spaghetti for supper.

cream of chicken soup & sour cream

Broccoli Cauliflower Casserole:

• Frozen vegetables – Use both frozen broccoli florets and frozen cauliflower florets in this recipe. You can use fresh broccoli and fresh cauliflower if you prefer, but frozen is really easy to use in this recipe.
• Cream of mushroom soup – If you don’t like cream of mushroom soup, you can use cream of chicken instead.
• Sour cream – Make your casserole extra creamy and have a little sour bite with some sour cream. Even if you don’t like sour cream, give it a try in this recipe! It really does make all the difference.
• Sharp cheddar cheese – Mild cheddar cheese also works, but the bite of sharp cheddar is super tasty! You could also opt for a more “fancy” cheese like gruyere or gouda.
• French fried onions – French fried onions are a staple in green bean casserole, and they are for this delicious casserole too!

I just had a small toasted slice of granary bread with 1 small sliced plum tomato.. and a couple of small slices of Brie.. for dinner.... that was more than enough

 

[StarSong]

Like @hollydolly, I had a light dinner. Cooked about 1/2 cup of rolled oats and some almond milk in the MW, added a cut up nectarine, a TBSP or so of unsweetened applesauce, and generous sprinklings of cinnamon & nutmeg.

 

[Lewkat]

For lunch, a roast beef, garlic, Swiss cheese on a buttered poppy seed roll, with a little Worcester Sauce for good measure.

Made up another batch of shredded beef (recipe provided somewhere on these pages) and I'm about halfway through another batch of red beans. Rice to follow later. I'm set for the next 3-4 days, TYVM.

This has been my dessert for a number of days. White seedless grapes. They are enormous (check out the picture) excellent and super juicy! I am hooked! (They are imported from Peru).

 

[Twostep]

Cravings for chicken breast pounded very thin, breaded and pan fried in butter. Make that lots of butter! Big rabbit food. Crown Black on the patio for desert.

Our seedless grapes are huge here too.. I'm always surprised at just how big they are, and as I eat grapes every day I deliberately seek out the big ones..

 

[hollydolly]

Today at lunch I had a hot bacon sandwich on just one slice of white bread...

I do too!
This is the first year that I have seen it here.

 

[Pinky]

Probably pasta today. Will make stroganoff tomorrow, or the day after. I use chicken, instead of beef.

 

[StarSong]

In honor of Pi day yesterday, I made salad pizza for dinner. Yum!

@Rossana, grapes here have also recently been large and delighfully sweet. Same with nectarines and tangerines. All at only 99¢/lb at my local produce store this week. Could I resist? I could not, would not, did not!

 

[Rossana]

@StarSong Exactly!

For lunch I made a beef stew with small new potatoes, small carrots, green beans and bella mushrooms.
Dessert was a fruit mix of grapes, blackberries, blueberries, and sliced bananas.
