Thinking about trying a new dessert, anyone have any ideas?
JAE said:What's for dinner? Good question. I have lots of chicken breasts, or I guess I can do the 30 minute microwave chicken. Whole chickens were 89 cents a pound. I don't even know if that's a great price, but it seemed good.
Any easy chicken ideas? The chicken breasts are frozen, and my son has a game form 5-6. Should probably thought of this earlier.
JAE said:I don't have any Italian dressing, rice, stuffing, or potatoes. I have barbecue sauce but I did that the other night. Suppose that would work with spaghetti sauce with a side of cheese filled bread sticks?

jbachen said:I was thinking about trying to grill a pizza tonight, but I am not sure if I can use the Pillsbury dough - the kind in the can - or if it will make a mess on the grill. I was thinking of pre-baking it in the oven, and then finishing it on the grill. Anyone ever tried this?

jenniferknapp said:Oh yeah!! I use these all of the time....they work really well! I just unroll on a cutting board, spray or spread garlic infused oil on one side, put that side down, then do the top while it's on the grill....it is done within 10 mins!

PChef_ang said:Herbed Chicken (cooking in the crockpot) over a bed of rice....
jbachen said:That sounds yummy - thanks for the advice!
Now I just have to make sure DH is up for grilling when he gets home. I really have to get over my fear of that thing...
Good thing you clarified. I would have thought the burgers were from your garden, too!pamperedlinda said:Beans, squash and tomatoes from my garden
Hamburgers (from the grocery store) on the grill
rennea said:I'm making it with garlic tonight.
Sometimes I add pine nuts and apricots.
janetupnorth said:Can you believe I actually had couscous for the FIRST TIME a few weeks ago?
Hence why I'm looking for some good variants...
Chef Michelle D said:I'm with you I will not cook on the grill either and I have a gas stove so I am used to cooking with a flame. But there is something about the grill that I just can't do it.
The key to cooking the perfect filet mignon is to sear it on high heat for a few minutes on each side, then finish it in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 8-10 minutes for a medium-rare result. Make sure to let the meat rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Some popular vegetable options to pair with filet mignon are roasted asparagus, sautéed mushrooms, and a simple green salad. You can also try grilling some bell peppers and zucchini for a delicious and colorful side dish.
Absolutely! The BBQ basket is versatile and can be used to cook a variety of proteins such as chicken, steak, or even tofu. Just make sure to adjust the cooking times accordingly.
Couscous is typically cooked by boiling it in water or broth for about 10 minutes. For a more flavorful option, you can also cook it in chicken or vegetable broth and add in some herbs and spices. Make sure to fluff the couscous with a fork after cooking to prevent it from clumping.
If you're looking for something light and refreshing, try a fruit salad with a honey-lime dressing. For a decadent treat, a chocolate lava cake would be the perfect ending to this meal. Or, if you want to keep it simple, some vanilla ice cream with fresh berries on top would also be a delicious option.
