Tonight I am making spaghetti with caesar salad:chef:


I have a ton of apples from my tree this year and am trying to use them up so I'm making an apple cake for dessert.
 
We have a ton of leftovers in the fridge. Leftover BBQ'd ribs, leftover Beef/Barley/Vegetable soup, leftover homemade mac n cheese.....I think this will be a "clean out the fridge" night.
 
We had Sara's 4th b-day party yesterday & I made homemade soup. We also had sandwiches & have a ton of lunchmeat left over. That's probably what we'll be having for several meals to come... lol!
 
We're having breakfast for dinner. Bacon, hash browns, scrambled eggs and toast. Last night, I made "Ann-doba" burritos, like Qdoba. :) That's what I'm eating now for lunch. Tomorrow, the leftover beans and chicken will become tortilla soup.
 
Breakfast for dinner sounds good! I already threw a pot roast in the crock pot...
 
Chicken Dijon, egg noodles, carrots and broccoli -
 
After reading Ann's post - I'm thinking that leftovers may have to wait until tomorrow.

I also have some leftover pumpkin in the fridge, and now I'm thinking we need to have Pumpkin Pancakes, Bacon, and Fried Apples for supper.

Yep - I think that's what I'll be making! It's very Autumnal here today - that just sounds like the right menu!:chef:
 
Had planned grilling pork chops on the grill, but it is raining, and will probably be raining all day, so I will use the grill pan, with pasta and carrots, I think. I am also thinking about carmel apple bread pudding in the DCB
 
Ooh, Becky. I'm coming to your house for pancakes. :)
 
swiss steak, fresh steamed broccoli, mashed potatoes, homemade rolls & my daughters favorite green beans wrapped in bacon glazed with butter, brown sugar and garlic powder
 
This made me laugh, and for some reason I thought of this thread.http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/funny-pictures-kitten-loves-the-cheeseburger-machine.jpg
 
A quick dinner on the run for us tonight -- probably one of those Bertoli frozen meals -- they are absolutely fabulous! 10-12 min in a covered pan and you are both well fed.
 
Pasta for us tonight DS has karate at 6:00pm, then tomorrow night it's a fast dinner too. DS has soccer practice at 5:30pm, I hate Mondays & Tuesday way too rushed.
