What's cooking?

We haven't done these in a while.  I have been eating the same boring things for a while so I would love some inspiration from you folks.  Those chicken sliders look tasty!  What else ya got?

Re: What's cooking?

  • Sunday- out to sushi dinner with family

    Monday- grilled porkchops, sweet potatoes and roasted broccoli. DH does some type of rub then tops with bbq when almost done grilling, i wish I knew what because they are delicious, I will try to find the link for his inspiration

    Tuesday- mom's birthday dinner at my house (since my kids are monsters in restaurants and Sunday was a disaster)....  which was gnocchi with broccoli rabe per her request, salad and garlic bread. Also made this cake and topped it with a peanut butter cream cheese icing. ah-mazing!

  • I am trying to get back on the meal planning boat, especially now that the little one is eating table food with us.

    Sunday - I roasted a chicken with homemade stuffing and glaxed carrots.

    Monday - Turkey Sloppy Joe's (http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/rachael-ray/sloppy-turkey-joes-recipe/index.html) with mac and cheese.

    Tuesday - used left over chicken to make enchiladas with Trader Joe's yummy enchilada sauce.  DD got some leftover chicken and some of a cheese quesadilla.

    Tonight - hopefully pork tenderloin on the grill with mashed potatoes and a veggie.

    Thursday - leftovers, Friday - Union game (so dinner out) and then I haven't gotten to this weekend yet.

  • Sun - my first (and last!) attempt at making chile rellenos, mexican rice, mexican corn on the cob (grilled and slathered with chili powder, sour cream, cojita cheese and a few other ingredients - delish!)

    Mon - eggplant parm, sauteed bok choy

    Tue - beet, goat cheese and walnut salad, black bean and zucchini enchiladas

    Wed - leftovers - Mr.D is out tonight

    Thur - probably salmon and a veggie or two from whatever comes in the CSA that day

    Fri - something with ground beef

    I'm also apparently a glutton for punishment as I requested 25 lbs of plum tomatoes from the CSA so I could can them.  Hopefully I'll do that Sunday.

  • I was just scouring my pins to see if anything tickled my fancy.  Nada.

    Sunday - I made cheese steak stromboli.  It was my first meal of red meat this entire pregnancy...heaven.

    Monday - honey mustard pork tenderloin and a veggie/potato foil packet on the grill

    Tues - leftover stromboli

    I'm hoping to convince DH to go to the bar up the street tonight for their clam bake special. 

    We'll have leftovers at some point, too.

  • I'm in the midst of trying to get out of a rut! We've been eating like the same 5 things over and over.  I've been back on Pinterest this week and managed to jazz things up:

    Sunday - Turkey Sloppy Joes 

    Monday - Poached chicken -> Mini chicken pot pies 

    Tuesday - Poached chicken -> Buffalo chicken sliders

    Wednesday - Meatball Grinders

    Thursday - Leftovers

    Friday - Indian Takeout

    Saturday - Clams and linguini

     

    Not the healthiest of menus this week, but it's been a while since we've had good 'ol comfort food.  Bonus - leftovers have been great for work lunches.
