TGIF So What's for Dinner! Friday April 27th

[LPBeier]

It is seafood day here and I am going to attempt my first tuna loin. I have a recipe for sesame crusted tuna lion and will serve it with rice noodles in peanut sauce and cucumbers in rice wine vinegar.

For our lite meal at dinner (DH is working at his other job tonight) I am making tuna salad sandwiches.

So what's cooking at your house today?

Frankly, I like the title the way it is.

I'm currently defrosting a frozen ball of pizza dough. I'm planning a pepperoni and other stuff pizza for dinner tonight. Other stuff to be selected from among green peppers, mushrooms, onion and Kalamata olives.

We're having something that's been a family favorite since the children were very small...Mrs. Schneider's Giant Meatballs, served with rich mushroom sauce, noodles, buttered peas, iced tea, and....fresh strawberry shortcake for dessert. Good eats in our house tonight.

Split pea soup (3 lbs of split peas). Ham steaks with a Marsala sauce.

T-bones were $5.99lb at Costco, so T-bones it is

Either you saw it AFTER the change (TGYF to TGIF) or you are just a little silly ... like me and by the way I thought you were Andy, not Frank!

Oh, and your pizza sounds amazing!

I am Andy but I was imitating Frank.

The chef is taking a night off. I've been such a good boy, eating leftovers and holding down the fort while the wife has been vacationing in Chicago all week with her sister and SIL. They have also been rubbing it a little in by posting photos of all the fun and good meals they've been enjoying. So I think I deserve a break today. No, I am not eating McDonalds. But I do think that maybe dinner out at a nice Thai or Sushi restaurant wouldn't be too far out of line. And maybe later I'll even catch a movie.

...maybe dinner out at a nice Thai or Sushi restaurant ...

What the heck, do both! Sushi for appetizers then Thai for the main course.

There goes your reputation.

We ordered out for soup and egg rolls.

I had egg drop and Kathleen had some wonton type soup.

 

[Dawgluver]

We went for lunch at a local grill place, and though we split the baked beans and slaw, we still have leftovers, along with partial unbreaded pork tenderloin sammies.

 

[Whiskadoodle]

Ginger Teriyaki chicken. Stir fried cut up bonesless chicken breast with fresh pieces of pineapple, bias sliced carrot and topped with some green onion . Brown rice. More pineapple on the side for dessert.
It's been quite awhile since I've made a home-made teriyaki sauce I almost forgot how. It came together pretty good and cooked down while the chicken was cooking.

I made a great big batch of frikadeller. I wanted leftovers for quick snacks. I served it with a green salad and a salad dressing made from Margi's mint-feta mousse and mayonnaise. I also had some cucumber salad.

We sort of did that recently. I made hot and sour soup and got take out egg rolls.

 

[Andy M.]

Tonight's dinner - pepperoni and green pepper under the cheese and Kalamata olives on half the pizza for me.

Not as pretty as some. I didn't care for the olives. Live and learn.

 

[FrankZ]

Nicely done Andy.

I don't put olives on my pizza... Kathleen likes them on hers though.

 

[PrincessFiona60]

Save those kalamata for me...

Chicken and noodle soup, dinner rolls. My version of carb loading for the race tomorrow.

 

[Kayelle]

Tonight was fried chicken, pan gravy, mashed taters, English cucumber and onion salad, and biscuits.

Someone here said they fry breaded chicken on med/high heat till nice and brown and then put it in the oven to finish cooking till done. I did that tonight, and it was my best fried chicken ever. Wish I could remember who it was to give credit.
Anyway, I'll never do it any other way. I used 375 degrees for 30 minutes, after browning in oil skillet.

 

[roadfix]

Flat iron steak and salad.

Okay, LP, I must have missed the post on this meal plan you have going. Can you post the link so I can read more about it--I'm curious. And, btw, that sounds like a really nice meal!
