So I need to do something with ground beef and the excess of sliced cheese I'll now have, that will stretch a little further than burgers.

smashed beans or refried beans mix in well

1 needs to be pepperoni and cheese.

The other can be anything under the sun...

ham, salami, bologna, veggies, cheeses

We're going OUT for dinner tonight!!!

If you knew me, you'd know that's a rare occurrence!

We're having fish (cod) cooked . . .idk

with new potatoes and green beans. I'm so bored with the lack of variety lately. And, y'all are really getting on my nerves with all of these yummy sounding gluten and casein ridden meals.

So, peas, huh? what type of peas are y'all talking about? There are so many different kinds, you can't hate ALL peas, right? There are the sweet green peas, purple hull peas, black eye peas, crowder peas, field peas, etc. I

peas. Especially with mashed potatoes!

chicken stir fry with broccoli, peppers, asparagus, baby corn and water chestnuts served over angelhair pasta
fresh pineapple slices

I like snap peas and snow peas, but NOT cooked peas (fresh, frozen, canned, ANY cooked peas) or "regular" peas. And yes I've had them cooked a million ways etc, etc.

I hate mushrooms, too. And yes I've had them cooked your way, their way, that way, this way...yuck.

If they don't, they're being overcooked or they were too mature when they were picked. If you're buying frozen, try Green Giant "sweetlets" packages. Drop them in boiling water right from frozen, this will lower the temp of the water. When it comes back to the boil, drain them. They're done. The outside of the pea should NOT be tough and chewy nor should it be mushy at all.

If you're cooking them properly and you still don't like them... you're really, really strange.

I'll try it. I don't ever buy peas and cook them. MIL does

Tacos.

DH likes weird stuff on them, like baked beans and applesauce. He think tomatoes and avocado or guacamole is weird. Mmmmmm ya, ok

Apple-Saucy · 03-07-2012, 02:48 PM

Ok so the stromboli ended up being 1 pepperoni and one chicken with veggies

3boysforme · 03-07-2012, 02:51 PM

It is almost 4 and I am not sure what we are going to eat for dinner. And it needs to be something fast because we are going to church tonight

.

I had some rice and gravy for the kids, but I left it out all night last night

. And of course they don't like the chicken soup or the red beans that are in the fridge already.

Macky · 03-07-2012, 03:03 PM

We've got scalloped potatoes left over from last night. I took pork loin chops out of the freezer. I think I'll do a dry rub I haven't done for a while... it's got chili powder and brown sugar and some other stuff I can't remember; it makes kinds of a crust on the meat. We haven't had green beans yet this week.

When I'm talking peas, btw, I'm talking fresh, green "English" peas either fresh or frozen. Never canned. If I mean dry peas, I specify the kind of pea.

Sounds like a PB&J night with a side of fruit and glass of milk

I'm steeling myself up to go into the kitchen to make zucchini lasagna. My dh got all the ingredients (except only thawed 1 lb. of ground beef instead of 2), and I promised I'd make it. But I don't feel well this afternoon and I don't feel like cooking. Blah. It won't be so bad once I get into the cooking zen mode, right?
