Tonight's dinner: Homemade wheat bread & a big pot of veggie soup

[prolesunited]

I was feeling very domestic today and the temps in the Chicago area plummeted about 30 degrees from yesterday.

What's on your dinner table tonight?

1. Club sandwich and fries

Mmm!

2. Corned Beef & Brussel Sprouts

[Beware the Beast Man]

3. Digiorno.

It's a "we sat in traffic for an hour" type of meal tonight.

4. We had Digiorno last night

We always dress it up with extra garlic, spices and cheese, though. Sometimes Jason will put pepperoni on half.

We're proof that a veggie and a carnivore can peacefully co-exist. :-)

12. Mmm..that sounds good!

Mrs. B and I usually throw banana peppers on ours.

5. Homemade waffles (mine had walnuts in it!) and fried ham slices.

The kids ate their waffles with peanut butter.

6. My mom used to make waffles

with strips of bacon cooked inside. Have you ever tried them that way? I used to like them when I ate meat.

13. I've seen similar recipes, but I haven't tried it.

7. Vegetarian chili

with black beans, red kidney beans, TVP, and chili seasoned pinto beans. A big bowl of regularity.

8. 1 soft boiled egg chopped up with a little salt on it.

[prolesunited]

9. That doesn't sound like much of a dinner

Aren't you going to have anything else?

[auntAgonist]

17. recovering from

major surgery .. it's a meal :)

[Rowdyboy]

10. Chicken tacos with the works....and either strawberry shortcake,

Boston cream pie, or pumpkin pie...

[Magrittes Pipe]

11. Jesus Christ.

What did poor Jason eat? :cry:

[prolesunited]

15. What do you mean "What did poor Jason eat"

He had two bowls and loved it.

[Magrittes Pipe]

16. I know. I love vegetable soup, too.

Even when there is no meat.

That said, I look healthier than he does. All pale and goateed. Poor boy needs some protein. At least give him a wheatgrass shake. ;)

[warrens]

14. tonight is yum

But they all are. Grilled butt steak RARE, a Yukon Gold potato with butter and pepper, and fresh shelled peas. In a month I can start getting the strawberry pie my farmers market has. Virtually the only sweets I eat.

[yardwork]

18. Pepper goat cheese on French bread and vegetarian sushi

Putting on a pot of coffee to spend a long night....

[jpgray]

19. One of my favorites

Penne with blackened chicken, sauted broccoli, onion, red pepper and garlic in a tandoori sauce, tossed with just a little bit of cilantro pesto.

20. Homemade Pad Thai with Shrimp

it was yummy too... hubby had seconds.

[tigereye]

21. wow

that sounds good! Do you make the noodles too?


we had Chinese take out. Since it's Wednesday. Ginger chicken with string beans.

[lavenderdiva]

22. I don't make the noodles from scratch,

but I get them at an asian grocery store here. I use Rice noodles; you soak the dried noodles in hot water for about 5-10 minutes and that softens them. Then I add them to the veggie/shrimp mixture, and then add the sauce. I put in red onions, red and green bell peppers, carrots, sugar snap peas, and shrimp. The sauce has peanut butter, coconut milk, chili paste, soy sauce, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. You top it off with chopped peanuts, cilantro, and chopped green onions. Needless to say, prep is a bitch. But it tastes oh-so good! I make enough for a couple of meals so the work is worth it. Yummy, yummy, yummy! (even if I do say so myself!)

Ginger Chicken with String Beans sounds scrumptious too! And I'll bet you didn't have anywhere near the kitchen clean-up I do! That's the best part-- no clean-up!

[tigereye]
