Just for Fun -- What Are You Having for Dinner Tonight?

Banana splits!

We have a family tradition of eating banana splits, O. time, in the summer as the last meal before school starts up again!

Tonight's the night!

Tonight is league volleyball game night at the bar, so it will probably be a liquid dinner...tequila just has to have some nutritional value in it!?!?

Well, today is my son's 8th birthday...so we are having what he wants!
Grilled Flank steak marinated in Kalbi
Corn on the cobb
Baked Potatos

Birthday Brownies!

I love my son's choice!
L.

london broil, sweet potatoes and summer squash on the grill!! yummy!

We are having Chicken and Sausage Jambalaya that I made yesterday....yummy!!!!

(from scratch, not a box ;)

We don't get paid till Thursday, so we're having frozen corn dogs. :(

But last night, we had my husband's favorite "Sausage Rice and Beans." Sautee jalepeno and Eckerich sausage (skinless) with some onion and garlic. Toss two cans of black beans on top. Stir till all's warm and then put on top of a bowl full of cooked rice (brown or white, doesn't matter). Tabasco to spice it up to your preference. Yummy.

baked purple potatoes with champagne salt and cumin/ paprika yogurt sauce, monterey jack cheese and tomato quesadillas, and a sliced avocado on the side

we eat weird

Pizza with homemade crust OR burritos with homemade salsa.

Have to make it a quick dinner to get to church so we will be having sloppy joes, fresh veggies and I will probably give in to the kids and make french fries.

Hope there are a lot of responses as I am stuck on dinner ideas lately.

baked tilapia with green beans and mashed potatoes with carrots.

We are having thai chicken tacos:

-grill two chicken breasts, chop into bite-size pieces or shred
-heat four tortillas in the microwave for 30 secs each
-put chicken, 1/2 cup carrot shreds, 1/2 cup red cabbage shreds in a bowl
-add Bangkok Padang peanut sauce
-mix ingredients together
-put in tortilla and top with shredded mozzarella

salisbury steak in mushroom gravy, mashed garlic potatoes, green peas, spring mix salad.

Potato chip salmon, wild rice, and carrots.

The potato chip salmon is to DIE for, and sooo easy:

Slather a generous amount of spicy brown mustard (i.e. Gulden's) onto salmon filets. In a big plastic bag, crush some kettle-cooked potato chips (about 1/2 bag), add 1/4 cup parmesan cheese & some salt & pepper. Mix all of that together & put it on a plate. Smash the salmon mustard-side-down into the potato chip mixture, then put the filets on a Pam-sprayed cookie sheet. 425 for 15 min. SOOO good!

tonight I am making pulled pork in the crock pot!

Well, as of right now, I am trying to decide between what Anna Lee, Bridgett, and Laura U, have on their menus. Great ideas!!!
What's for dessert? ;)

Baby lima beans, home made egg noodles, plain yogurt and some fruit.

We have a big lunch (usually with meat) and then have a light dinner with veggies/beans and fruit ;-) So I am having a big steak sandwich for lunch today.

Ground deer meat tacos.

Well we'll have some nacho chips, ground turkey, and salsa -- salad of some type. But I'm also going to make a fave family summer dish. Using up some of the many zucchini, squash, tomatoes and onions from many gardens! All the veggies sliced and sauteed in olive oil then add velveeta cheese (melts best in the veggies). Can add seasonings of your choice, galic, tarragon and basil are some herbs we use. Don't cook on super high and make sure to cover for the majority of the cooking so Zucchini cooks well. Uncover a while prior to serving so it thickens.

Wednesdays my teenage daughter gets to choose = Chicken fajitas with spices, red bell peppers, onions, garlic, tomatoes, cheese and topped with sliced avocado and warm corn tortillas. It's her favorite meal.

Rotisserie chicken from SAMS (excuse the spelling) corn,Hawaiian rolls with butter,watermelon.

bbq grilled pizza. Have a great recipe for the dough that you cook on the bbq, homemade pizza sauce and whatever toppings you want.....sooo good.

Tonight we are having a spicy Mexican chicken soup served over rice with cheese, sour cream, lime, tortilla chips and fresh cilantro as garnish. Perfect for this rainy fall day.

We had quesadillas made from whole wheat tortillas with cheese, black beans and spinach. And corn on the cob.

Homemede split pea soup and cheesy biscuits - yum!

We are having beef stroganoff in the crock pot over jasmine rice, baby carrots and probably green grapes (my 3 year old's obsession this week). The baby will have applesauce and peaches. Pretty boring tonight.

I always ask people this question, because I'm so nebby.

We had grilled salmon, grilled sliced potatoes with a side of sour cream/garden chives, fresh green beans sauteed with garlic. My hubby made everything as I was out with our son. Husband had blueberry pie a la mode for dessert. (I'm not usually so good at avoiding dessert, but, I had some pudding earlier.)

My hubs version of Arroz con pollo. Yellow rice with chicken. So yummy and thankfully a ripe avocado on the side. I could live on avocado alone!!

Hi Denise,
We are having baked chicken, Kasha and Broccoli. (my 9 month old loves it)

maple glazed ham (prepackaged), creamed corn and mashed potatoes.

Tonight:
- Mama Neely's/Pat's Roast beef http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/patrick-and-gina-neely...

- Mashed potatoes (boiled peeled russets, butter, veggie stock, & salt)

- Balsamic Butter Sauteed Veggies (baby carrots, mushrooms, green beans, cauliflour, cherry tomatoes + butter + balsamic vinegar)

Tomorow Night:

Seviche
Bulgar Wheat & tzatziki
Broiled asparagus with garlic & soy

Pan-fried catfish, fresh corn-on-the-cob, coleslaw, and fresh bread. Catfish is NOT fishy, has enough fat in it that I only Pam the skillet, then sprinkle with lemon pepper and Seasoning Salt---delicious!! Cooks in about 5 minutes. For dessert--- carrot and zucchini cake from Weight Watchers with Lite Cool Whip.

We're having either spaghetti bake or a twist on the chicken soft taco. We found wraps that aren't made with lard, grill the chicken tenderloins and put the chicken on the wrap with a nice salsa or pico de gallo, with shredded mexican cheese, sour cream and steamed brocolli.

Now I'm hungry!

We're having leftovers, but good ones. I made a salad of rotisserie chicken (from the grocery store), orzo pasta, and shredded raw carrots and zucchini. Then I put a bunch of black pepper and a little bit of Italian dressing (a little goes a long way) on the whole thing and tossed it together. It's really light but filling, and it's healthy. Yum!

chicken on the grill with bbq sauce, corn on cob, salad

Homemade pizza with sauteed mushrooms on top. My four year old loves to help me make it so it's a fun afternoon thing to do as well.

We had French Toast and Creamed Dried Beef. Breakfast night so we can off quick to the football field. Thanks for the question. I always ask what people are having for dinner. I always feel I make the same old things.

Garlic Pepper Cube Steak with homeade Ranch mashed potatoes, steamed mixed veggies and canned peaches.

Tonight it's Spaghetti Pie from the weelicious site -- love her recipes!

Honey Mustard BBQ pork chops (recipe from Allrecipes.com). I put them in to marinade this morning first thing and we'll cook them on the grill. Also having steamed fresh green beans. I should probably make some corn bread or something, but I'm trying to lose a little weight, so I'm laying off the carbs! :-)

Unfortunately, your post isn't helping because everyone's food sounds so yummy!

I am making the recipie from McCormicks for Mexican Quesadilla Casserole!

I'll be honest---we're having a DiGiorno frozen pizza and my husband and son couldn't be happier!

I'll be googling "Easy Chicken Broccoli Fettucini" for my son, so he can have lots of leftovers for lunches at school. I have the chicken breast, the broccoli, the pasta, the half and half, the parm but haven't made it before

We are having chicken burritos in home made tortillas.

I roast a whole chicken once a week and use it for two meals. Tongiht I will take half and warm it in a skillet and add ckn taco seasoning, corn and black beans. Then we top them with cheese, avacado,salsa and sour cream. It's a "go to meal" at our house and the kids love it.

Other favorites:
-home made biscuts and gravy
-black bean with bacon soup
-chicken quesadillas
-philly cheesesteaks
-white beans with cornbread and hotlinks
-home made mac n cheese with ham and broccoli
-red beans and rice with andoulie sausage
