Dinner tonight is.....Crab cakes and a seafood pasta...yummy

pasta with mayo and herbs,and green onions, crab, and shrimp with some feta cheese a tad of milk or cream.

crab cakes..on the back of Kellogg corn flake crumbs:-)

Oh, YUM!
Crab cakes are one of my most favorite things in the whole world!


I'm having a can of tuna dumped on top of a paper plate full of potato chips!
...and a big glass of milk!

Cindy...that is all your going to have?
I love tuna too...wish I could mail them to you and you could still have while there hot:-)

I have noooooooooo idea what we're havin'..
I wish I owned every To~Go~Place there was,
and have them right next door..
so I never had to cook again!

But, back to reality...
I still don't know what I'm havin'.....

Weezie, boy do I hear that...I either get tired of cooking or not sure what to make, or not sure I want to clean up the mess;-)

I do not care for fast food, but it is hard to change it up and not get bored:-)nightly.

Having the Cinnamon Basil Porkchops, Tossed Salad with Ranch dressing, Mashed potatoes and Gravy, and the rest of the nutty green beans. At least that's the plan and since most of it is already made it will probably be that lol.

We ended up having Chicken Fingers and some homemade french fries.. w/green beans and applesauce...

Okay, what am I going to have tonight?????? :rolleyes:

Oh we were talking about lunch lol. Well I'm going out with the girls to Applebees. I'll probably have a salad. Their menu is somewhat strange I think. But that's just me.

No that was last nights "dilema"...
Finally desided on the fingers..

Lunch is on the other thread..

We are having seafood cassarole tonight.

I make an entire week's menu every Wednesday evening so that I know what to buy when I go to the grocery store on Thursday. Right now, the menu is done until Sunday.

Tonight I am making Manicotti.. Very easy and yummy too

Of course the Manicotti Noodles
1 jar of pasta sauce.. I like the Barilla baking sauce for this..

1 8 oz container of Ricotta cheese
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
2 cups of Mozzarella cheese
2 eggs
1 teaspoon of parsley
1/2 teaspoon Garlic
Mix together and let sit in the fridge for an hour .. I like to put it in a zip lock bag..
Cook the Manicotti Noodles as directed on the box.. Snip off the corner of the Zip Lock bag and squeeze the mixture into the noodles..
Cover with the Pasta sauce and I like to sprinkle more Mozzarella Cheese over the top..
Cover and Bake at 350 for 45 - 60 Minutes..

Rita sound great!!!

Jenn, what is in your seafood cassorole?

rice, cheese, shrimp, crab, sometimes some scallops if I can get decent looking ones. All of that mixed into a cream, flour, butter base and then put into a cassarole dish and baked for a half hour or so to make sure its warm all the way through.

tonight we're having chicken stir fry. I like to make things that are quick and has the meat and veggies all in one dish....less to clean up!

Thanks Jenn...sounds like a keeper:-)MMMMMM

Yummy!!!will keep this one, Thanks

no problem. I think it would have been good if I would have put some diced celery in as well.

Right now, I'm waiting for my chicken to be done soaking in the cornstarch/ soy sauce combination....just a couple more minutes!!

Oh that does sound good!!! Yummy, yummy in my tummy!!
Though I'll be dining alone when I make that one..b/f doesn't like seafood.

Tonight I made Tex-Mex Chicken Drumsticks, Mexican "Dirty Rice" and steamed Broccoli with zesty cheese sauce.

oooooooo...again sounds so goood;-) post recipe, please.

Does anyone use apple cider vinegar in cooking?
I like some in spinach, chili, and spaghetti sauce. Really wakes up but somehow mellows even canned chili.
Just wondering if there are other uses for it in foods.
I LOVE white vinegar cucumbers, what's that called? You know, the ones with the fork marks down the sides of the cucumber?

I use it alot in making sauces Deborah.. Most of the time I use Basalmic Vinagar though..

I love Apple Cider Vinegar.
*put it in my chicken wing sauce*

but I love it most on home grown
Romaine lettuce w/kosher or sea salt....

We had Chivetta's BBQ'd Chicken on the grill
*won't be able to do that for too many more weeks* :p
w/mashed 'taters`n gravy, french style green beans, bread `n butter and apple sauce......
