What's For Dinner?

[Marilyn. 340]

today I am attempting a recipe I found for El Pollo loco Chicken.. I found a couple of different recipes so I kind of combined a bunch of them ... they do this citrus marinade thing before they grill them... and then I am going to serve the leftover mac and cheese from yesterday with the chicken...

Well...I've never posted over here before, but I love food and I'm always looking for good ideas on food. It's just me still...hopefully there will be two of us to cook for by the beginning of Fall. Tonight I think I'm going to have leftover pizza from California Pizza Kitchen. Some Thai Pizza and some Mushroom Pizza. Yum!

Last night we went to the Cricketers Arms Pub for dinner. It's touted as Orlando's "Premiere Authentic English Pub". Well, as a Brit, I can tell you that it is not authentic and far from "premiere". We had the fish & chips. Ugh. They were just as bad as the service. I am soooooooo looking forward to being in England this summer so I can have real pub food. bleh. *shakes off memory* The Guinness was good, though.

That's funny, we went to the Aussie pub in Calgary and it had nothing to do with Australia really, few aussie banners on the walls.

I had a McDonalds chicken burger at like 9:30 last night, that was dinner. Had pizza for lunch. We went to Hyvee yesterday and picked them up, after we picked up my Nephew from school.

Tonight we are going for sushi. Last time we went I ordered a Pad Thai that they had on the menu. It was pretty good, I think I may have it again- with lots of sake.

Well, I know what I'm having for dinner this evening. I was at the hair salon this morning and was browsing through their Gourmet magazines. Ended up asking the hairdresser to photocopy me 3 recipes! Decided to switch to People magazine before I found another. Tonight's dish will be.... drum roll please.... Chicken in Riesling. yum

Weeeellll that sounds good! and funny that you had the hairdresser photocopy 3 recipes for you

My Sister and Brother in Law have gone to the casino, they drive an hour to one in Iowa. Anyhoo before they left they BBQ'd some sausages and steak and pork chops, and there is asparagus cooking now and potatoes in the oven, dinner!

I'm going to wait a little while to eat but my Husband is eating his steak now - says it is very good!

We had chicken cooked in the crockpot. I used a seasoning packet I saw at the store yesterday for Italian herb chicken. Very easy ... put 2.5 pounds chicken pieces and 1 package mushrooms in the crockpot. Make a sauce by mixing 1 can tomato paste, the seasoning packet and 2 cans stewed tomatoes. Pour the sauce over the chicken and then cook all day. Hubby liked it a lot. I served it over whole wheat penne, but if I did it again, would probably serve it over rice. The sauce was a bit watery and I think would be better with rice.

mm, dinner/lunch was good... the chicken turned out good , hubby bbq'd it and we had the leftover Italian mac and cheese from yesterday with it and some steamed corn... yum yum!!

We didn't go for sushi- we ended up going to Al Copeland's Sweet Fire and Ice.

I had a ceasar salad and the eggplant parmesan.

We're going to have hamburgers tonight. On the outside grill if it's not raining, but if it's raining on my George Foreman. We'll have corn on the cob to accompany it. Just started seeing it in the stores, and it looked yummy. You never know though with corn on the cob!

[Marilyn. 340]

hmmm, maybe I will get hubby to pick up something to eat on his way home... I really don't feel like cooking today...

Ohhh! I know I am a newbie, but OMG a food topic. Yeah! Me loves some food..all types, colors.

Ok now that I got over it, LOL not sure but its going to involve sitting outside in the Georgia spring weather with a cold glass of white wine...hell it might just be cheese. Ahhhh

Hey, another Canadian in the Atlanta area! Nice to meet you Steph. Whereabouts are you located? (We're about 22 miles south of Atlanta).

Tonight was a stir fry/saute with the left over roast chicken, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, corn, peas in a garlic ginger sauce and spiral noodles, a salad and ice tea. We got into the 80s ehre today and are currently under a dark threatening sky with thunderstorms in the forecast. Right now it is that pause before the storm and it goes along very well with sitting back after dinner and just relaxing:-).

What's for dinner changes drastically depending on whether or not my wife and I are together at the moment. When we're together, we eat "real meals" cooked and prepared by her. I attempt to help, mostly by keeping her company and staying out of the way. When we're apart, I instantly become the "Microwave Gourmet" which my wife says is an oxymoron.

Something my wife finds interesting -- and perhaps a little disturbing -- is that she'll ask me what I ate for dinner and I'll respond with, "I don't know; some sort of meat (or chicken) thing." She can't seem to understand how I could eat something and not know what it is... but I could watch the trailer to the new Iron Man movie and identify the types/models of cars that Tony Stark has in his garage (including the one he apparently crashes onto while testing out his armor).

I've tried telling her that most of the time, I just don't care what I eat. So long as it's not moving or attempting to harm me, it's fair game. This does not include pets. I do not eat dog or cat. Most other things... sure, why not?
