What's For Dinner?

Ooohh! I'll go eat over at your place.

@Loachra, that looks great!

Ok, so my soup didn't get made last night. After I made my post, but before I got the soup started, my day got super busy, and by the time I thought about it again, I didn't have time. So, we ordered Chinese food. Fried rice to the rescue!

I have a pretty busy day lined up today, too, so I don't know if the soup will get made today. I did cook the chicken, so it can last a couple of days until I can get more stuff added to it to make soup. As for dinner tonight, if I don't make the soup, we have leftover Chinese, leftover beef burgundy, or microwavable pizzas. Lol.

that sounds good to me. We'll probably have cheese toast for supper tonight.

Tonight's special is Spaghetti.
Here's the recipe.
1lb. hamburger meat
1 large onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 Tbsp. parsley flakes
1 Tbsp. sweet basil flakes
3 cans tom. sauce
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 bell pepper
1 can of mushrooms (Opt.)
We usually don't put the mushrooms.

I tend to make a red sauce with ground beef, onions (sometimes celery), *good* commercial spaghetti sauce, lots of extra spices (esp. oregano and basil), then tomato paste if needed to thicken it up. I put it on top of pasta (random) and top it with grated parmesan. When I have salad greens in the house, I make salad. I have the second half of that sauce and some cheese tortelloni ready to heat for tonight.

 

[DeletedUser20396]

That sounds good. By random pasta you mean whatever's handy?

Yeah, or whatever shape I feel like eating. (I have 5-8 different shapes in the pantry at any one time.)

White Chicken Enchiladas

 

[DeletedUser20396]

Yum! What other chicken is there than white? By white do you mean not Dark Meat?

Right. Dark meat is the legs, thighs, and wings; white meat is the breast and surrounding meat. I favor dark meat, as I find it more flavorful.

 

[DeletedUser20396]

So does my mom, but I like the white.

 

[DeletedUser20747]

I have not even a clue what's for dinner tonight. This is what happens when the family planner gets busy and doesn't have time for meal planning. Lol. Maybe hot dogs?

 

[DeletedUser20396]

I'm thinking Texas Hatch. I'll have to find the recipe.

 

[DeletedUser20396]

Here's the recipe.

1lb. of hamburger
1 onion
1 pepper
1 can of tom. sauce
1 cup of cooked rice
2tsp. salt
2tsp. chili pwd
and a dash of black pepper.

By white do you mean not Dark Meat?

It was a white sauce instead of a red sauce that is traditionally on enchiladas.

 

[DeletedUser20396]

Oh, that sounds good.
