What's for supper tonight?
 
I usually cook supper (dinner to some) for my kids and grands on Fridays. Tonight it's hamburger steaks in brown gravy, butter beans, stewed potatoes, and cornbread.

I'm thinking baked chicken parmesan. Or possibly boneless chops.

Not sure about tonight but Wednesday I made a pork schnitzel with pickle gravy. I didn't know how it would turn out but it was really good with mashed potatoes and broccoli. You make a white gravy with minced dill pickles, a jalapeno pepper and minced green onions. It was delish.

We are having a pork shoulder roast, that I will cook in the rotisserie. The sides will be mashed potatoes with dried parsley and cracked black pepper and honey glazed carrots.

Here is the recipe for the carrots I plan on using:

We're having some chicken and sausage gumbo that I had cooked a while back, and froze the leftover, easy peezy! Then, on another thread, someone asked about potato soup, and Tartan mentioned boiled eggs, bout to go boil a few to toss into the gumbo! YUM!

I am single so I keep things simple with Lean Cuisine. I have a craving for Spaghetti with Meatballs.

zozee 10-30-2015 12:42 PM

Tonight it's hodgepodge lodge. Leftover chicken 'n dumplings for hubby, spaghetti for my son and me..or grilled cheese sandwiches if the mood changes.

quilt1950 10-30-2015 01:43 PM

It's Friday, so it's pizza. Made from scratch.

MamaSue 10-30-2015 01:45 PM

Mariposa 10-30-2015 01:49 PM

Gonna have something with chicken...and watch movies with my hubby! :)

Jcarpentier 10-30-2015 02:24 PM

We had cod, corn, and home made french fries for supper.

GingerK 10-30-2015 02:31 PM

Mezzalune pasta (fresh pasta half moons stuffed with sundried tomatoes, olives, capers and cheese) with a quick tomato sauce, and salad. Easy peasy.

Doggramma 10-30-2015 04:55 PM

We had ham, baked sweet potatoes, and cranberries. For dessert we had orange custard chocolate chip ice cream.

Bob Evans, 3 course meals (I had blackened fish, green beans, soup, and dessert (fudge sundae - took it home). He had the 3 course turkey and dressing, mashed potatoes, salad, and same dessert. Plus pumpkin bread and rolls.

Not bad really. No clean up.

Fresh grilled Alaska salmon with lemon/mustard/mayo sauce and broccoli with butter and lemon juice. Yum!

Annaquilts 10-30-2015 08:49 PM

Must be a salmon night. I had salmon, kimchi (spicy pickled korean cabbage) and air popped pop corn.

That does sound good. Never heard of pickle gravy; but could do without the jalapenos. Can you elaborate on that recipe, please?

Nothing jalapeño for me too....why do some think one had to burn inside of mouth to be tasty! I remember when recipes did not call for jalapeño or now chipotle ..........

I love the Lean Cuisine spaghetti and meatballs. And Lots of their other things. I'm not single, but Mr. Stitchnripper is happy with some chicken done in the George Foreman with a bag of vegetables from the microwave. I'm even tired of eating that. I don't like to eat out all that much. Too expensive and too many calories, so we can usually put a meal together.

fivepaws 10-31-2015 06:39 AM

It is Saturday and order out pizza night.

Aurora 10-31-2015 08:47 AM

Don't laugh. Tonight we are having Kraft Mac and Cheese, Sautéed Broccoli, and glazed carrots. Can you believe my mother had never had Kraft Mac and Cheese or glazed carrots until I introduced her to them a couple of years ago.

wendiq 10-31-2015 09:53 AM

Chicken thigh coated with Panko bread crumbs and parmesan along with some sweet potato and steamed broccoli-wokly. Healthy and low cal.......

ladydukes 10-31-2015 10:36 AM

Goulash and cornbread made from scratch. Goulash is one of my hubby's favorite meals, and - it's a one-pot dinner! I add some rotel tomatoes to mine because we like it spicy.

It's a nice change to eat out every so often....most of our meals are fixed and eaten at home.

Plus everybody gets what they want....I like fish, him not so much. I love vegetables, again him no so much unless it is a potato, etc. etc.

DH fished Friday so it was Chinese takeouts. Saturday was a fish fry with the family over before tricks or treat starts

gramquilter2 10-31-2015 02:07 PM

that is the thing, it doesn't have to burn the inside of your mouth.. A good cook knows how to add just the right amount to give it that hint of a kick, but still taste all the other flavors, yum.

Even though the trees are spectacular in the bright sun, it's just a damp, chilly, windy day...Northern Ohio in the fall. While the game is on I'm making a big pot of chili that will be served over mashed potatoes.

Chasing Hawk 11-01-2015 12:19 PM

Tonight (Sunday) we are having pinto beans with the leftover rotisserie cooked pork roast. Also on the menu fried potatoes and cornbread.

NJ Quilter 11-01-2015 02:50 PM

Reservations! Have been cleaning and doing laundry all day. Have dog sitter coming tomorrow so not interested in sli ing freshly cleaned kitchen before sitter arrives. Plus I'm tired,

quiltingcandy 11-01-2015 02:57 PM

Our local grocery store had whole chickens for $0.79 a pound, so I bought several, one is currently cooking in the crock pot, the others are in the freezer. Not sure what is going to be cooked with it, something simple. Thought about putting potatoes and carrots in with the chicken but we had a pot roast last weekend, and we ate the left overs all week. Rice rissoto keeps coming to mind.

canmitch1971 11-01-2015 05:54 PM

I sautéed 1/3 cup finely chopped dill pickles, green onions and a jalapeno pepper in some butter......added 1 1/2 tbsp. flour......roasted a bit and then added 1 1/2 cups milk......I stirred until thickened......it was actually quite good served over the schnitzel.

Hadn't thought of chili over mashed potatoes but it sounds good. I ran across a quickie recipe a couple of years ago that they said kids liked: Just fix a box of Kraft's Mac & Cheese as usual and then mix in a can of your favorite chili. Amazingly, it is really good, and so quick to fix. I use Nalley's Original Chili (with beans).

I have done that, it is really tasty.
