Hi All,

Just wondering what everyone is planning for dinner tonight ? I think I shall be having 'something' (not sure what ?) with a baked potato and vegetables.

Anna :)
 
Buffalo chicken is on our menu.( Chicken breasts,(boneless, skinless) Spray chicken breasts with butter flavor nonstick spray. Cover with a mixture of 1 cup hot sauce, 1/4 cup white vinager and 1 tsp ground celery seed. Put in baking dish, cover and bake 350 degrees for 40 minutes. These are slso good on hard rolls!

We will have roasted sweet potato wedges ( sparyed with nonstick spray and a little salt), low fat blue cheese dressing/dip and carrots/ celery for kids. A big green salad for the adults.

I still have to email the tofu recipes. I'll try to do that today!

Well, the mother in-law is in town for the week so the good thing is I don't have to think about dinner because it is finished by the time I get home from work. Bad thing is it is not the healthiest. But just the fact that I don't have to cook for a week makes it worth it, and they don't seem to mind me working out for an hour after dinner! My in-laws really are great! :)
 
We are having chicken with pasta and a red sauce, my oldest daughters favorite. Last night I made salmon steaks and baked potatoes for the kids and hubby. I had a baked sweet potato. My husband told a friend he was talking to on the phone that I was giving them starchy white potatoes and eating the more nutritious one myself. When I said, "here have a bite ", he pulled back and said get that thing away from me. LOL They loaded up on butter and sour cream . Mine was perfect with just a little salt!

Chicken stirfry with lots of veggies on a small bed of rice will be our dinner of choice tonight.

Judy your recipe for buffalo chicken sounds delicious. I will need to make it for my husband since he loves buffalo chicken. Thanks for the recipe.

I sometimes feel like I am the only one who mainly eats grilled/broiled meat, a baked potato, and some veggies? I feel like my menu could use some variety. Maybe I will create a post asking for favorite dinner suggestions or recipes. I'll think about it. I might do that on Monday since I am getting ready to go out of town to visit the in-laws. They are dying to see their grandson. Have a nice weekend!!
 
Omelettes (sp?) with mushrooms, peppers, onions, cheese, a tiny bit of sausage (I have two links to spread over 3 omelettes), and hot salsa for hubby. Oh yes and tomatoes. And some sort of carb...taters?...toast?...

I'm glad my Dh doesn't read these posts! He would divorce me for sure. I have cooked once, yes once, in the last six months. I made split pea soup. DH was so shocked he actually took a picture of the soup in the bowl.:-wow Actually, I was holding the bowl vertically with the soup in it when he took the picture.:7 I don't think he'll be too disappointed if I go for another six months without cooking.:)

My usual steamed brocoli, cauliflower, baby carrots, mushrooms smothered in SanteFe sauce, ketchup, and medium-hot salsa (kinda like a ratatouie(sp?)

Boneless, skinless chicken breast on a small whole-wheat fajita. (Jeepers, there's a lot of people on this thread eating chicken tonight!)

I might just burp after that -- haven't decided.

Been feeling a real craving for red meat during the last few days. I only eat red meat a few times a year, and that's usually when there's no choice (i.e. going to the parents who have NO idea about low-fat diets). Anyhow, I'm gonna bite the bullet, (hope it doesn't explode in my mouth), and for Saturday night, I think I'll get 1/4 lb lean ground beef, and "beef" it up with steamed mushrooms. Oh goodness gracious, I'm salivating already!

Patricia

P.S. Don't hate me. Even beautiful people burp sometimes!
 
Last night I had broiled orange roughy with steamed broccoli and carrots with a plain sweet potato. Tonight I'm making chili and will probably have it with a salad. The cold weather also has me digging out my bread maker so I've got bread "baking" as we speak. I'm trying to cut down on carbs but the bread is just a little treat tonight!

Hi Everyone,

It sounds like you all had a nice meal tonight ! I ended up having a low fat/ low calorie pizza tonight !

Anna
 
I had a BIG salad with chicken breast and i stole some of my daughters fries.I am waiting for my babysitter to get here b/c I am going to my friends house and we are having fondue....yum,everything dipped in chocolate.

Three pizzas from the freezer section and butter pecan icecream. My inlaws are here also and wouldn't eat much else. Just for the record, I won't touch this stuff. I'm having stirfried veggies, brocolli, snow peas, cashews, with tomatoe sauce and greenchillies and cumin seasoning. I put all this on homemade tortillas, freshly ground spelt, baking soda, salt, water and oil. Yum Yum, you can put almost anything on tortillas and their good!!! I'm used to cooking for myself and everyone eats other stuff. I'm trying hard to get transition them over!!

My dinner had nothing to write home about. In between taking kids to the opticians, waiting for an age to be seen, dashing them home, zipping down town to do my evening offfice hours and now sat plowing my way through a stack of papers to grade and comment upon before I can even think about going to bed, I have managed to consume a very un-holy raisn/cinn bagel (the good), several slabs of cheddar, canadian, extra mature (the bad but delicious) and a cup of tea with half a packet of biscuits (the ugly but quite more-ish).

God, I eat badly when I am bored. Don't anyone try it at home.....

Tomorrrow is another nutrition-wise day and chance to be healthy, sigh....
