and someone else will post another one later which will get 50 or 60 responses.....



anyway, ham hash tonight. steamed green beans, sliced tomato

and a glass of lemonade


I bought a package of milk chocolate macademia nut cookies for dessert.

[hippywife]

1. Baked sweet potatoes

with bleu cheese, turnip greens, and we still have plenty of cake. Come on over! :hi:

[redqueen]

2. Can I come over?

Heheheh... when it's just me, all I ever make is one course meals. I'm so lazy! If the kids are over, I'll make a real meal.. otherwise - lazytime! I'm just not inspired enough to put in the effort.

Yum... cookies. :9

I don't know what I'll end up eating. Tuna helper, probably. Or some kind of microwave stuff. Super appetizing stuff, I know!

[MissMillie]

6. this isn't really "cooking" though

hash browns from the freezer section with a couple of ham steaks cut up and added in. I also added garlic and green onion and a few crushed red pepper flakes.


tasty enough... took about 15 minutes. Dirt cheap too.


I'll eat the leftovers for breakfast w/ scrambled eggs on Saturday.

[redqueen]

11. Sounds like cookin to me!

For me, not cooking = open, place in microwave, push buttons, wait. :)

I have some frozen home fries I haven't worked up the courage to try fixin. When I try to make them from potatoes, all the tasty part ends up stuck to the pan.

:banghead:

I scrape it off as best I can, but still. :P

[NMDemDist2]

33. toss the taters in olive oil, salt and pepper and bake at 450-500 degrees

they won't stick to the pan and they'll brown up real pretty

:hi:

[livetohike]

3. Penne with walnut-parsley pesto and a cauliflower,

red pepper, oil cured olives dish on the side :-).

[MissMillie]

[PeaceNikki]

24. It's easy and tasty!

I throw some corn or broccoli other veggie in it when available, too!

I've never had ham hash, but it sounds yummy!! You make it with potatoes and green onions?

[MissMillie]

29. yes, frozen hash browns

green onions, garlic, a little crushed red pepper flakes, and ham steak all cut up. Brown it all up in a skillet w/ some vegetable oil.

I do the same thing with hot dogs too.... just something quick and easy for a night when I'm tired and want to be done w/ dinner and dishes early.

[Catshrink]

7. Hey, at least you get 4 or 5 responses

I'm lucky to get two.

I have a craving for a bacon guacamole cheeseburger but I'll probably resist since I need to get a cholesterol test done Friday. I kind of want to go out, but can't decide what I want -- other than the aforementioned burger.

[MissMillie]

14. I always have a hard time picking a restaurant

because I always want everything!

[Catshrink]

16. Well, there's always Olive Garden

I hear they have great Italian. :rofl:

[MissMillie]

20. actually for me OG is quite a drive

and we have a great locally owned place nearby

[Catshrink]

22. I've decided...

I'm going to take a nap on the sofa with my dog then grab a can of soup. It isn't a bacon guacamole cheeseburger but hey, I need some time with my baby.

[huskerlaw]

10. I have no idea!

I've been sick and haven't eaten "real" food since Sunday night. But I've been craving it all day and I do feel better, so...I still don't know.

:hi:

[MissMillie]

15. I'm sorry you haven't been well

take it easy on your tummy--don't jump into the deep end too soon!

[huskerlaw]

19. The weird thing is

I've been craving a hamburger all day. Now, I know that's not a good idea, so I'll probably make some chicken instead.

If all goes well, I can have the hamburger tomorrow. ;)

[Parche]

12. KFC

:hi:
:hug:

[MissMillie]

17. AGAIN?????

aren't they cruel to their chickens, or something?

[Parche]

23. Yes Again!!

I love the stuff!!!

And walking home from KFC with bucket in hand, i will stop at the local protest we have
here every Wednesday night against Bush and Iraq illegal invasion!!!!

:hi:

:hug:


PS...see you got more then 5 responses...:hi:

[quip]

26. In honor of ME!

:rofl: :hi: (& another kick) :D

[Fox Mulder]

13. I'm not eating tonight.

I'm not hungry. :shrug:

[MissMillie]

18. I hope you're not getting sick

I'm only not hungry when I'm sick.

[Fox Mulder]

27. I don't feel sick.

:shrug:

[Swede]

21. Leftover chicken and noodles.

Cooked too much for dinner on Monday.

[Pacifist Patriot]

25. Don't feel bad. I tried to rile folks up at GD-P and it sank like a stone.

I had some kind of stuffed sole and a corn/bean salad my mother-in-law made for dinner. Apple pie for dessert. I think I'd rather have your cookies.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=4794594&mesg_id=4794594 I was so trying to get my ass handed to me and NADA.

[MissMillie]

30. that sounds delicious

I haven't had sole in a long time.

[fizzgig]

28. dunno yet

i forgot to pull my chicken breast from the freezer, so i'll have to punt. probably a mish mash of leftovers

[Thirtieschild]

31. Our kitchen is like a diner tonight.

For two days I've been cooking the grass-fed beef from our defunct freezer. Tonight you I gave Mr. D the choice of meat loaf, spaghetti & meat sauce with pesto sauce added, chili, Frito pie, hash (diced top round roast, potatoes, onions & fat-free gravy), turkey buritos, stew meat and vegetables in beer/fire roasted tomato gravy. He chose meat loaf and I'll serve it with garlic mashed potatoes, salad and Rosemont shiraz wine. Still have six marinating roasts to cook. We're going to get a small chest freezer tomorrow, not big enough to hold half a cow but big enough to hold all the food I'm cooking. Have to find a place for it, however. The dead freezer was in a shed and I wonder if the mice killed it. They've been known to do a number on the innards of a car.

32. chef's salad by request from the spousal unit

guess they all paid a coworker to do the 'potluck' meal today at lunch and his tummy wasn't happy

:rofl:

[LiberalEsto]

34. Caldo verde soup

which is Portuguese kale soup. I make it vegetarian, without the chorizo sausage. On a cold February night, it's heavenly with sesame semolina bread.
