Whats for dinner 2023

[EastenerWesterner]

Cook it down, add some ground meat, hot Chile peppers and spices.... Chile time

4th night of bean soup I did this.

Question chili with beans?

I watched bona petit episode this morning where they were making grilled cheese...different ones making different versions...one took so long I wanted to stick a fork in my eye watching her! Anyhoo....it reminded me I hadn't made grilled cheese sandwich in a while so I decided I wanted one. Made sandwich with sharp cheddar, sour dough bread slices, thinly sliced tomatoes and used mayo instead of butter on the bread...grilled up nicely and tasted pretty good...I was going to have soup on side, but too lazy and worn out to make any...fairly big sandwich, so it was enough to do.

Chicken enchiladas tonight, but I think I'd rather have had your grilled cheese, Cindy!

 

[Proud Prepper]

I made a split pea soup.

Question chili with beans?

Never once had anyone complain about the beans in my chili. But then I use pinto beans that are cooked until they aren't recognizable anymore.

This started out as as 14 bean soup mix. Unfortunately it had my least favorite food, Lima Beans.
Fava beans taste about the same but thinking about the Hannibal Lecter line made it amusing

Oh, you have NOT eaten the right kind of Lima Beans!

 

[Amish Heart]

Bratwurst, sauerkraut, green salad, and fresh fruit

Had them 2 years in a row at MGM Grand in the conference area, so 4-5 star dining. It was just as bad as the cans as a kid.

Toasted ham, bacon and cheese sandwich on sourdough bread.

You are just proving my point! LOL

Institutional Lima Beans are not the right kind of Lima Beans.
Canned Lima Beans are not the right kind of Lima Beans.

I cooked a second pot of green split pea soup. Everyone requested more. I used the baked ham shank left over from Christmas dinner.

 

[Arcticdude]

Sour cream chicken and mashed potatoes.

Yesterday I bought some fresh hamburger meat instead of taking some out of freezer and made up a hamburger dip with velveeta cheese and threw in a can of diced tomatoes and green chiles, for my youngest son. I used to make that when my boys were teenagers to eat with tortilla chips.

I've been on a sandwich theme the past week, so I used the rest of the hamburger meat and made cheeseburgers for Larry and I today, some frozen french fries I threw in the air fryer (Which I didn't really care for). Just had regular hamburger buns, mayo, lettuce, tomatoe, red onion slices, and I picked up some gouda and provolone cheese. I overdid it a bit on the cheese, but it was good. Opened up a jar of zesty bread and butter pickles I had made a week or two ago.

Y'all keep talking about split pea soup and lima beans! I am going to have to put those on my list to make very soon! Yumm!

 

[DrHenley]

Just got back from a week at the BOL and the freezer is now crammed with venison and venison smoked sausage (My instructions to the processing place were "Smoked Italian links, hot, less fat" and it came out perfect)
So I see red beans rice and sausage, country fried venison, coffee rub venison, venison burgers, and Mongolian venison on the menu for many dinners to come. Some beans are soaking tonight.

 

[Proud Prepper]

Made a pot of Chili
Yes with beans, that's what everyone wanted. Not a lot of beans.

 

[Arcticdude]

We're still about 3.5 hours from home, so I'm not sure what's for dinner tonight. I have some left over chili (no beans) in the fridge. I might heat that up when we get home.

 

[Cindyd]

Tacos...popped open 2 pints of ground beef I had canned, shredded up lettuce, chopped tomatoe, onion, shredded cheese, sour cream...that's it...simple, and quick..I actually ate 3 of them! Hard shells.

 

[Cindyd]

Pulled out Beef vegetable soup I had vacuum sealed in freezer bag and corn bread muffins mother made..vodker tonic/s which go good with anything

 

[Arcticdude]

Tonight was toast.
