What's For Dinner Saturday, September 25th

[LPBeier]

I am hoping to make the mac and cheese that didn't get made yesterday (we had our usual Saturday hot dogs while watching a great football game).

Now I have a little more time to make it interesting, and healthy, for Dad.

What's everyone else having?

 

[JGDean]

Individual meatloafs, Garlic - olive oil roasted mini potatoes - salad - potato rolls

I love mac and cheese!

 

[bethzaring]

beef pot roast, potatoes, fresh green beans

going to try to make an apple pecan caramel cake this afternoon

 

[MSC]

Gonna do a corn chowder with lobster, bacon, sherry and cream--definitely not 'healthy' but should certainly be tasty!

Just stopping by to say hello -- no cooking for me today. Going to a family BBQ this afternoon.

I'm sure the Yankee/Red Sox game will be on . . . hope the Yankees win tonight

Tuesday will be James's birthday, but he won't be here, so tonight will be his birthday dinner. We don't normally get expensive cuts of meat, but I figure it would be much higher at a restaurant, so I am going to get a couple nice steaks (probably ribeye) at the store, and we will have them with mashed potatoes (his choice) and a veggie. Not sure of the vegetable yet, but maybe Brussels sprouts since they are one of his favorites. For dessert, orange cake with pecan frosting (like the kind for German Chocolate Cake--we've never tried it, but that's what he said he wants, lol), and ice cream.

That sounds good!! Let us know how it tastes please.

I don't know what I am going to have tonight. I went shopping last night and I have meat to brake down and re-rap. So I have lots of choices.

Barbara, make sure you give him a great big early birthday hug for me! You two have a great night.

Looks like summer finally arrived here, as it's 99 degrees out there, and close to the same expected for next week. Everyone is holding their breath since with the heat, the fires often follow. Keeping fingers crossed.

Hubby is going to make his shrimp egg foo young, so he'll be sweating over the griddle instead of me. I'll contribute steamed jasmine rice, and a salad.

Here's his really good recipe, if anyone wants it. http://www.discusscooking.com/forums/f21/egg-foo-young-64520.html

 

[DaveSoMD]

I'm making a pot pie with a biscuit top from the left over roast chicken. Probably make a green salad to go on the side.

 

[4meandthem]

I bought a whole pork loin.
Not sure what I am going to do yet.Probably just grill some chops.Spent all morning doing yardwork.

Asparagas
Beans

Every year on my baby sister's birthday we HAD to have cherry chip cake with cherry chip icing...arrrrgh!!! Way too sweet!

This year I want a chocolate raspberry something that I don't have to make myself. I'll be checking out the new specialty candy/bake shop downtown. I'm sure it will be a mistake.

Happy Birthday to James!

 

[pbnjgourmet]

Chicken Enchiladas for us!!!!

 

[PrincessFiona60]

We had open face hot roast beef sandwiches, earlier. Thanks to Kayelle, I'm considering some egg foo yung...I think I have all the ingredients. If not, I'll fake it!

 

[forty_caliber]

Mexican Lasagna for us tonight. This is quick and easy to make. For a more authentic flavor, toast whole cumin seeds lightly in a pan over high heat just before grinding.
