We had creamy Tuscan chicken with quinoa and salad.

I hope we have enough leftovers to eat tomorrow. We still have cabbage soup though that got eaten better than I thought.

The Vietnamese Coconut Caramel Chicken was a huge hit. I served it with jasmine rice and red cabbage, carrot, and mint salad. The salad was Middle Eastern but it tasted great with the Vietnamese chicken. Both were easy and not expensive.

Tonight was cold and rainy and dh made chili.

I'm going to make a creamy gluten free penne pasta with zucchini, red bell pepper, mushrooms, and tomatoes (loosely based on this recipe) and a Greek salad on the side.

I think we're doing tacos, too. A taco bar is probably the easiest way to get veggies in my kids. :giggle

Grilled burgers and steaks, crab meat, roasted asparagus, and potato salad.

The chicken sounds really yummy! Adding it to my list. :yes

Tonight is cabbage roll casserole made in the IP. I've only ever baked it before. Fingers crossed it turns out. So much easier!

This is the basic recipe I use: https://www.skinnytaste.com/fish-florentine/

I use frozen Mahi Mahi from Costco and I replace the red pepper with tomatoes and double the spinach (literally to 18 oz.) but I don't increase the sauce at all and trust me, there is still PLENTY of sauce. It's a really yummy recipe (see reviews). My somewhat picky DD19 literally licked her plate last night...we were all cracking up.

That's pretty much the same sauce as that creamy Tuscan chicken with tomatoes and spinach. Only no cream cheese.

Tortilla soup adapted to make in the IP. My recipe calls for refried beans. I left them out of the cooking part & will add them once I release pressure. It's warm & sunny but the recipe was requested by dd who is not feeling well. I'll humor her. :)

Probably leftover salmon and green beans from when we went to Bahama Breeze the other night

We had burritos! I found some 'ivory teff' flour tortillas that were gluten, soy and dairy free!! I was so excited. They worked really really well. Dh and I thought they were great!

Roast chicken, grean beans sauteed with bacon, onions, & tomatoes, and a quinoa and black bean salad.

With the summer heat I'm trying to avoid cooking in the oven... But I have some gluten free pizza crusts I was thinking of using.... Has anyone ever tried to make pizza on the grill? I vaguely remember hearing about it in the past....

knitlove 06-28-2019 06:49 AM

Re: June Dinners. What are you cooking?
 
My family has done pizza on the grill.

If you have a pizza stone or steel you can pop that on the grill. Or if you gf crust will hold together you can put that striaght on the grill.

We did pesto chicken French bread pizzas on the grill last night. Put foil under them and put them on the rack instead of the grill surface. Had a simple side salad to go with them. It’s not everyday that a new recipe gets winning votes from the men who live here but I was told “We can definitely do this again.”

Since the bread was basically already baked that probably makes it a little different than from raw dough :shrug

ViolaMum 06-30-2019 04:43 PM

Re: June Dinners. What are you cooking?
 
We do pizza on the grill every summer, and always use bread flour because it makes a sturdier crust. I've never done GF pizza on the grill, however.

Birthday Dinner for Prima was tonight. She asked for homemade falafel and pavlovas. (She has a thing for time-consuming eats!)

heartofjoy 06-30-2019 08:44 PM

Re: June Dinners. What are you cooking?
 
I grilled chicken last night and made a bagged Caesar salad to go with it. And some quinoa on the side.

Tonight we just did whatever people wanted to fix themselves. I'm fasting and didn't want to deal with food.

Tomorrow....well, we need a new thread!
