Goodmorning!!!

Tonight we are having pasta and fresh baked bread:chef:
 
We are having Beef stew with biscuits -
 
We're having beef stew, too :)
 
Thinking of having the BLT Mac & Cheese. Have never made it but have always wanted to try it. What else would I have with it?
 
Hmmm, I was planning on Baked Ziti, since I have it in the freezer, and it's a show night....but we ended up going out for Italian last night, so now I should probably come up with a plan B.

I'm thinking Baked BBQ'd Chicken, a tossed salad, and corn on the cob. (I buy that frozen from Schwan's, and it's remarkably good!)

That just needs a little salad or fruit to go with it. It's really good.

===
Still no idea what to make here. I should think of something so I can get stuff out of the freezer if I need to.
 
Veggie Lasagna (If I get out to the store to buy the ingredients)
 
We had Turkey on Sunday so tonight I am thinking Turkey pot pie w/ the leftovers...

Is your family going to be sick of turkey by Thanksgiving? HA!:D
 
No, it's funny, we haven't had turkey in SO LONG and I had a taste for it so I made a mini Thanksgiving, mashed potatoes, stuffing, green bean casserole, the works...it was great...so everything else is gone but the meat and I'll throw it in a pot pie and freeze the rest for another time!

We love turkey day!!! ha ha
 
baked potato soup, homemade bread & carrot cake
 
Nothing exciting tonight....just spaghetti w/ meat sauce, salad, and crescent rolls.

DH mentioned he wanted some spaghetti last night while watching TV, so that's what we're having tonight! :p
 
Teresa: Your dinner sounds better .... what time?

We had that last night! Only with the breadsticks with the cheese inside. I could only eat a quarter of one b/c it's too many points! I also used the low sodium Trader Joe's marinara, which I've decided is good IF you add a bunch of salt!:rolleyes:

Tonight, we're having pork chops on the grill and homemade applesauce.
 
Eating at church.

We're having chicken breast, potatos with white sauce, green beans and salad.
 
6, but be warned if you show up I will put a strand of Christmas lights in your hands
 
Fried rabbit, mashed potatoes, green beans, and apple pie.

Okay - I think that is the very first time I've seen that on this thread!:D

Suddenly, a vision of Elmer Fudd stalking Bugs Bunny is in my head.

"Shhhhhh, be veeewy veeewy quiet...We're hunting Wabbit!":D :D :D
 
We are going out for pizza with my DS soccer team. DH is one fo the coaches and at the end of the season he likes to do something for the team.

If you use low sodium salt you can add more to it, HA!:D
 
We are having Tonys pizza. I have a show tonight and my DH wont be home so I have a sitter. Wanted something easy.
 
I'm making curried eggs and brown rice. Hard boiled eggs soak up the curry flavor - yummm!
 
Well, my Grands biscuits popped open around 4:30, too early to make dinner or sweet bites. I left them out unknowingly because the cashier/bagger person mixed everything up. Cold mixed in with pantry stuff, frozen mixed with Ziploc stuff. Ugh! So, I decided to make "Bubble Up Pizza". One can of biscuits, 1 1/2 cups spaghetti sauce, 8 oz moz cheese, and ground turkey sausage. Mix it all together and bake at 375 for about 35 minutes.

It was fun but loud!!! My DS is 9 and boy when you get 12 9/10 boys together you can barley here yourself think. I said to my DH we are used to having all of them outside on the field and you don't realize they are so loud.
