[n2mark]

13. Where do you live

[Shoeempress]

17. New England, and we are all pretty sick of it.

2. I think I'll go to Bernie's Southern Bistro for happy hour.

And probably have fried green tomatoes, Mac & Cheese, and a couple of pints of IPA.

3. It's over 80 here

I'm going to fire up my mini-Weber and cook a pork steak. Chops are too damned dry these days unless you brine them. I'll probably sautee a huge pile of cabbage on the side.

[n2mark]

12. It is hot here in Phoenix,

not wanting to kick up the grill.

[wryter2000]

19. The mini-grill

The mini-grill isn't much work. It's better than firing up the stove.

6. Saag and brown rice

my dear husband prepared saag for the first time this evening and did an excellent job!

[n2mark]

11. What is saag?

[LiberalEsto]

15. Spinach, India style

yummy, too!

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

18. curried creamed spinach

you can add farmer's cheese for Saag Pinar, or chickpeas for Chooli Saag, but we just like it plain. And to think I hated spinach when I was growing up. Must've been because it wasn't made this very tasty way.

[Rowdyboy]

7. Crab cakes, fettucini aftredo and a salad

Boston cream pie for dessert.

[Mrs_Beastman]

8. salad and spaghetti

[YellowRubberDuckie]

9. Super Sonic Cheeseburger, Fries, Large Coke w/extra ice.

Oh my god, it was good and juicy. :9

10. I'm debating

I have a Wild Copper River Salmon fillet (very small since it is expensive) or fresh talapia fillets. I just want to eat either very plain. Any suggestions how to fix the fish?

[solinvictus]

24. Tilapia..

Drizzle in olive oil, a dash of oregano, and a hint of salt. Cook it in the oven in an open dish until done, which for me is sort of crispy. Simple and delicious.

[youthere]

14. Gardenburgers, chips and fruit...

I found an online recipe for Gardenburgers and they are awesome, even my kids like them.

[paula777]

21. Have you tried a veggie product called Quorn yet?

I just heard of it but haven't tried it yet. It's a UK product made from mushrooms. quorn.com shows all their products. Looks yummy

[youthere]

23. No, I've never even heard of it before...

I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the head's up. We aren't vegetarians, but I try to feed my family "mostly vegetarian". I only feed them meat 2-3 times a week and we try to stick to fish and chicken. Once in awhile they get red meat, but not too often. I'm always looking for new ideas.

16. Baked chicken

boiled new potatos, tossed salad, and a cheese omelet for Her Highness the Vegetarian.

[Lisa]

20. smoked salmon and avocado sushi (west coast checking in here!)

My local grocer sells the trimmed-off bits of salmon quite cheaply, and when it's rolled up, the raggedy parts aren't noticeable anyway.

[giant_robot]

22. Hawaiian sweet n' sour meatballs and white rice left over from last night.

I love leftovers!

[Left Is Write]

25. I had a lite Caesar salad and the last of the leftover baked beans.

My husband brought home a double tall decaf nonfat toffee nut latte for me, and I'm enjoying that now. I'll have a dish of strawberries for dessert later.

[solinvictus]

26. Yummy leftover pork chili..

rolled into burritoes with cheese and salsa.

[yellowdogintexas]

27. mixed salad: lettuce, raddichio, cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots

and 1/2 an avocado, with a nice vinegarette

YUMMY

[Bouncy Ball]

28. Portobello stuffed ravioli in a vodka sauce

with brussel sprouts in a butter sauce. With wine.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

29. My husband asked me to make something simple since he wasn't

sure how hungry he was going to be...So I made Swiss steak (browned top sirloin baked in the oven with mushrooms, and stewed tomatoes), and some new little potatoes. It was yummy! Turns out he had more appetite than he thought he would, and he went back for a small second portion. Easy cleanup, also...A winner, all around.

[Robeson]

30. I had vegetarian Cincinnati Style Chili....

...and it was yummy! :9

31. Vegetable Lo Mein (takeout)
