What's For Dinner?

[Krikit 1,164]

Hubby working again tonight...so it's just me and the princess. She wants to be Queen but I have claimed that honour. As for supper, not sure yet. She will be happy with Kraft Dinner. I do have a pasta salad box on the shelf. Or hotdogs. Maybe ham and swiss sammich. *sigh* decisions, decisions...

Oh! You just reminded me! I have one of these sandwich machines! They make the most awesome hot sandwiches. You can do that with your ham and swiss sammidge. Make it like french toast (without the cinnamon). Yummy. I want one now too. LOL

Speaking of fish.... might have swordfish tonight. Or maybe tomorrow night. Not quite sure, yet, what I feel like.

Mmmmmmmmmm! We have this about once a month. While traditionally it has shrimp in it, you can substitue...maybe chicken? I love making Jambalaya because it's a good way of cleaning out my fridge!

We had pork chops last night. They were really lean and I baked them in the oven with one of my concoctions. Soy sauce, lemon juice, chili powder, garlic. Then we had lemon butter brussel sprouts with almonds. Lastly perogies. I know perogies probably doesn't go with this dish, but they've been sitting in my freezer for awhile and I had a hankering for them.

Tonight it's leftovers! Yummy!

Not a big jambalaya fan here. Food touching, and all. Mushy. Blech spices. *shudder*

Hey Carla, your pork chop concoction sounds really good, I'm going to try that the next time I make pork chops.

I still have the chicken breasts in the freezer, waiting to try Mr. Ho's chicken.

Anyway, definately grilled cheese tonight - made with the sandwich maker since krikit reminded me! Husband is off to watch the flames vs Chicago tonight so he will be eating saddledome fare.

It's funny how you forget about that thing yet it makes such great sandwiches! Mmmm. Grilled cheese with ketchup and Campbell's Tomato Soup. Yummy.

Grilled cheese with ketchup??!! Wow, I thought I was the only one that did that. You make a little puddle on the plate...and dip your corners in! haha

Kind of reminds me of the toast and egg scenerios...when we were little, my Mom always made boiled eggs for us, and put them in an egg cup. She would slice off the top "cap" of the egg, and our toast would be cut up into little triangles or slices so that we could "dip" our toast in our eggs. Once all the yolk was gone, we'd eat the whites. We had little "egg spoons" for this as well.

I've told Gene about the boiled egg in an egg cup, and the ketchup with Grilled cheese and he doesn't understand... *sigh*

Last night we were watching Corner Gas. Davis was going to go camping with Brent and Oscar. He brought...what he called his "waffle maker". I yelled out... "hey! A bush pie maker!!". Gene has this shocked look on his face and says..." a bush pie maker??!!" and laughs and laughs. Does anyone here know what I'm talking about? We used them ALL the time. And I'm not talking about when I was a child either! I LOVE bush pies!

Soft boiled eggs and soldiers! My Mom would cut the toast into 1" or 2" strips (as I did with my kids) so you could dip them easier!

We didn't call them bush pie makers but I know what you're talking about. We put them in the campfires and they made scrumptious yummy sammidges. Lemme see if I can remember..... I'll have to set it aside and wait for my brain to rebuild the connections to that memory.

^^^^ This should take about two hours from what I have figured out!

My Mom never did the boiled egg thing, I think it's because she is not overly fond of eggs. We almost always have ketchup with our grilled cheese. My latest favorite grilled cheese - cheese - is sundried tomato havarti.

I don't think I've ever had a grilled cheese with out a big blob of ketchup on my plate to dip it in. You mean there's another way to eat a grilled cheese without ketchup? Kind of defeats the purpose of having one then I would think...

I learned it from my Canadian friends. At first I was like . But I tried it a few times and eventually adapted. I think that was the moment when I knew I had become a true Canadian.
