I just checked my fridge and found a pound of bacon, cauliflower, broccoli, carrots and celery. I have onions in the pantry. So I'm going to cook up the bacon and then add my veggies to sauté in the bacon grease. I've never made it before but how could you go wrong with bacon grease, right?  What are you planning to eat tonight? |

We are having dinner with friends tonight, and I'm taking dessert. DGD is here for a few days, and she made Paula Dean's " not yo Momma's banana pudding" and put it in my trifle dish. She feels like she created a masterpiece!!!  |

We had chicken tikka masala with pilau rice, followed by a slice of Costco sheet birthday cake.

DD13 has really wanted to help with meals this week, so she has asked to make pancakes. I'll fry up some sausage and we'll have fresh fruit, too.

Got some refried beans going in the crock pot that we'll have with chicken ranch tacos, and maybe some Mexican rice. Maybe peaches or leftover chocolate cake for dessert.

Haven't decided yet. DH is working and we have leftover spaghetti from last night, so that may be what I end up having.

This week's summer camp for the boys doesn't start until 9:30, which means I have a lot of time to kill in a morning. So, this morning I made a chicken and potato enchilada casserole (never made it before, but it looks yummy) and I even French cut a boatload of green beans. Tonight I have a XFit class, while I'm gone all dh has to do is throw the casserole in the oven and steam the beans. Voila. Dinner on the table in record time!

Meatless, well, sort of, tonight. I have black beans in the crockpot with bacon. I will put it over quinoa and sautéed some zucchini.

Shrimp scampi and cajun salmon. Steamed broccoli Rice with parsley Younger ds doesn't like shrimp, so I am mostly making the salmon for him. I think I need to buy some really good bread from Wildflower as well since I have to go to Target anyhow and it's just across the street. .... Yes, I definitely NEED that Wildflower bread..... <DROOL!!!!> Lisa |

The son who's been away for a while has requested Manwich. I'll be pulling out my deep fryer for some curly fries to go along with it. I can pretend we'll eat the cherries & grapes that are in my fridge, but we all know it will be Oreos & ice cream, lol. |

Keilbasa, carrots, new potatoes (chunked), and fat Italian green beans... all thrown into a pan and roasted together. It's so quick & easy and so yummy!

I just polished off a bag of Jolly Time Jalapeno Butter popcorn. I think I've already eaten today's calories!  My sister and niece are in town, and we are planning a night at the ballpark. So maybe a snow cone? |

Breakfast for dinner. Yesterday I was up in the mountains and bought a bag of my favorite stone ground grits. I'll make cheese grits tonight and maybe just serve it with a fruit side. We've gotten in the habit of eating a really light dinner this summer. If you have an opportunity to try real stone ground grits, do so! It makes the instant crap you buy in the store taste like sawdust. If you are outside the South, do you even have any idea of what I'm talking about?!  |

Be here by 6:00 if you want to have a glass of wine before we head out - otherwise, just meet us at the harbor at 7:00 Thank you for all of the b-day wishes! I appreciate them |

I could also pretend that I am eating something healthy, but the reality is that I am sitting here eating chocolate mint chip ice cream out the container.  Breakfast for dinner.
