Now thats it's cooler here, I find myself cooking more often.
Today I made Stuffed Green Peppers because I have peppers coming out of my ears. :)
Made a 15 bean/ham soup, and 3 dozen White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookies.
Mmm those cookies must be delicious! Easy night here, Burgers, Dogs and Pasta Salad. :)
Pizza!☺
burgers on the grill, didn't want to heat up the kitchen.
The peanut butter and jelly bits didn't come out how I thought they should so I nixed them, those canapes were great!
Going out with sil and bil to have a combined anniversary celebration to our fav German restaurant, when I made reservations I requested something gluten free if they could...I love this place, nicest and most accomedating
Sounds good Jen, enjoy!
BBQ Chicken wax-green bean mix, chicken-garlic rice, and mato slices.
Chicken-garlic rice .... Verrrry Interesting! Have to look that one up, sounds good!
BBQ Ribeye steaks, French fries and a small romaine/ tomato salad on the side.
- steak dinners fill me up quick unless I've been doing hard labor, .. and that's something I usually try to avoid. (lol!!)
We had country style ribs, corn on the cob and more pasta salad. :)
WC, I like the chicken-garlic Ricearoni boxed one but it's high in sodium so i started making my own. You can tweak it as needed...sometimes I use cream of chicken soup but you have to be careful of scorching.

Thanks! .. good idea, I've been avoiding high sodium foods, some of them are way too high! I always read the labels for that.
* Thanks for the link, I'll use the chicken broth, the soup would be too heavy for us! ☺
I find it heavy too, DH says it's the "stick to your ribs" kind of rice. I'll pass. :)
Picnic at Garret's today....over 20 of us, so there were many foods on the table....I had chicken, pulled pork, and sweet potato salad....
YUM! Sounds like fun!!
I'm waddling right now!
LOL
tell me about the sweet potato salad
My sister made it....cook sweet potatoes until just tender, & cube. Cool, and add chopped hard-boiled egg, black olives, red onion, light mayo, fresh dill.....it was very tasty.
chicken, baked potato, corn on the cob.
Sounds good Robin, thanks!
Your welcome, Deb! Going back up to the farm today, so will eat whatever everyone brings....2 day holiday is putting pounds on!
Bought some shaved angus steak so cheesesteak subs with peppers and onions..went to a huge BBQ yesterday so need something different
I did some house work inside and moved some rocks around the pond, so my back would not let me even grill. My wife and I decided to take her parents to Denny's and get take-out meals for our sons who are both working today. Yes, we love Denny's and it was very good. ☺
Had 2 desserts today....bad, bad!
Yes, but were those desserts good, good? I would think so. ☺
Coffee & dark chocolate ice cream pie, & a ginger-molasses cookie....yep, very good!
burgers, indoors, out of gas and didn't know it, potatoes from the garden, mmm, and corn on the cob
Chicken tenderloins seasoned and coated with flour, then fried in light olive oil, red beans in a tomato sauce over white rice and COC.
Venision, seasoned mashed taters, steamed cauliflower and rye bread.
They must have really upped their game at Denny's cause the last time I was there...oh I don't know 20 years ago...Blech!
Don't work yourself so hard Dave!
Everything sounds yummy!!!
We went out for a late lunch, I had stuffed flounder
Jen, I LOVE the "Ultimate Omelet" @ Dennys.

I may have to go back
Making sausage & peppers for tonight to serve on a hard roll.....will bring the leftovers to Mom.....
Forgot to post last night! We had marinated steak tips and rice... forgot to get more veggies. Woops! :)
I did cube steaks and my "enhanced" beans on the grill for supper. Turned out great!
Back to the subject of Denny's - they have greatly improved over the last few years. Their current promotion is "Let's Get Cheesy" - lots of items with lots of cheese and a new white cheddar macaroni and cheese. They even have a patty melt with mac and cheese on it. My sons have had that and liked it very much. I really like the pancake puppies. ☺
Hamburgers with melted imported Swiss cheese, bacon. lettuce & tomato. French fries with plenty of ketchup and a Crispy half sour pickle to finish the meal.
Chili in the crockpot but have to run out to the store didn't realize I didn't have any tomato sauce....UGH and I was just at the store
Sounds like what I do! Pasta for tonight.....
I'm planning to make smoked cheddar links sausages and left-over beans. Cooking inside tonight as I ran out of charcoal for the grill. Have to get some this weekend.
out to dinner with friends
Steak rice and carrots.. Jen I do stuff like that all the time or somebody eats one of my ingredients and I don't find out until half way through cooking!
