What's For Dinner Tonight? (February) - Page 10

last night we had spaghetti with meat sauce. i was gonna do spaghetti squash or whole wheat pasta instead of white, but sometimes i just want real pasta, dammit. side of peas and carrots because i was too lazy for a salad.

tonight, baked potatoes with cultured sour cream and chives:, collard greens, artichokes with garlic butter, and chicken. i have boneless breasts, which are kind of bland so im thinking of making a bit of shitake mushroom/sprouted wheat bread stuffing and flattening the breasts and filling them, and then of course a gravy.

Beef and bean burritos. It is a crock pot recipe and very good and LF as well. I haven't figured out the sides yet.

Friday night was Ground beef, cauliflowers, peas in a simple gravy over rice - my take on an English pub food recipe I found.

Last night was chicken, black bean, and spinach enchiladas (home made enchilada sauce)

Tonight is broccoli soup with corn bread. All homemade of course. ETA Soup is ready to go. It smelled a little bland so I tossed in some carrots and pieces of butternut (both frozen from the farm last year) to sweeten it up a bit, and then I had a little bit of spinach in the fridge that was starting to look sad, so I added that. Blended it all up and it tastes delicious!

Looks like a lot of you serve desserts - is that a regular thing? We almost never have desserts.

No, not a regular thing for us, at least not as a family thing. : DP and I almost always have something sweet as a treat, after the kids go to sleep, or if we hide in the pantry to eat it after dinner. And the kids almost always have some form of "dessert" if they eat a good dinner, but their dessert is usually something really healthy like homemade popsicles or similar.

Tonight I am making White Chili in the crockpot. It's one of the few things that everyone in the family likes. I serve it with jack cheese and tortilla chips. It's so good!!

Chicken tortilla soup tonight for us. I think I'm going to change up my normal recipe by adding black beans.
