So, DU what's for dinner tonight?

[texpatriot2004]

I know it's a silly question but I was wondering about your election night dinner plans. At our house we call it "the daily D". Today I was wondering about how to honor President Obama and VP Biden with a meal. Like what's their favorite food? I know there is a recipe somewhere out there for the President's chili?

What's cooking tonight while you watch the election results? Do you have an election day dinner tradition? A favorite recipe from a fellow Democrat?

My wife is cooking tonight. She's German.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

43. I'll try..

The Roladen is a flat piece of beef, with mustard and other spices and a small whole pickle, all rolled and tied, then it's cooked in a brown sauce. The Knudeln is a large potato dumpling with a big homemade croûton inside; my kids think it's the "surprise". It's sometimes called a Kleuse (sp?). The Rote Kraut is red cabbage sour kraut.

I might even throw together some tri colored tortellini with shrimp and scallops if my mother threatens not to vote (It's her favorite and there's a great fresh seafood stand on the corner)

We are in a true blue state, she is to the left of Ghandi, and we don't live together (she no longer drives)

I *might* have to have her favorite on hand *just* in case I can coax her to come out today.

[riderinthestorm]

73. Fajitas.

No its not an election day fave, it just happened to be what rang my bell for dinner tonight. I'm using the last of the garden peppers and tomatoes though so maybe I'll make an analogy to the end of the "campaign" season by "finishing" them off with a victory party.

[Neurotica]

74. Leftovers -- too anxious to cook

I've told the kids to finish up their homework/college applications so that we can eat dinner together and watch the results. No one will be able to concentrate on anything later!

[lillypaddle]

75. Well ...

Before I went to vote at about 1:30 this afternoon, I had veggie stir fry over brown rice.

Just finished (4:45 PM) fried chicken tenders and french fries.

I'm thinking I should have a cheeseburger with all the fixin's delivered from Harry's (Atlanta) about 7:00 pm or so to get me through the results.

[MzShellG]

77. We're election night tailgating. Pizza!!!

Doughnuts & candy....Basically everything I normally would NOT eat. I'm pretty much eating salad & fruit for the rest of the week. Lol
