I picked up 4 dozen ears of ccorn at the local farm stand this morning and a friend is coming over to help cut it off the cob, cook it briefly in a butter sauce and freeze it. After we're done I'lll see what I'm hungry for but for sure it'll be quick and easy. What are you having?

Lasagna. I was thinking about it last night. I have been using a recipe for 25 years from a church cookbook of my youth. I realized last night I hadn't made it in a couple of years, so tonight it is on the list!

I'm not sure, but I can tell you it won't have peppers in it! We've eaten 3 pepper-centric meals this week and we are DONE!!

We had grilled bacon, steamed new potatoes and green beans from FIL with melted butter and pepper - the 2nd time this week. I had honeydew melon for dessert.

We are heading out to the Iowa State Fair tonight! Plans are to stop at Cattlemen's and get a Ribeye Steak Sandwich, walk over to the Iowa Craft Beer Tent and grab a beer and I may finish up with a fresh peach or strawberry ice cream cone from Bauder's.

I was going to make lasagna but I got busy and now we are having spaghetti, garlic bread and salad. akathy I cooked the chicken (from 2 days ago) at 350 for 40 minutes and broiled the chicken for about a minute at the end. They were large boneless breasts. The recipe had the honey at 3/4 cup and the dijon at (I think) a 1/3. I didn't follow the recipe - I made the marinade to taste. That much honey was too sweet for me.

pot roast, mashed potatoes, steamed carrots and broccoli. It's the first day of school here, so I thought I'd make something that everyone loves!

Since everyone is leaving me all by myself until Sunday I'm ordering a pizza with peppers, mushrooms, and onions. I never get that because everyone else like meat on their pizza.

We had corn on the cob, rice, pan fried mushrooms & onions & minute steaks with mushroom sauce. The only thing of note about this is that I did it all in a holiday let with minimal equipment, very little space, only a hob & the instructions for everything in German! Luckily my family were very appreciative

Tacos. I will probably have taco salad, to atone for last night's over-indulgences.

Tonight is ds' back to school night. So I am fixing roasted chicken, chilled cranberry sauce, and blueberry muffins. Easy to fix, and will have leftovers. During the school year I try to fix 5 meals Sun-Thurs that will give some left overs. Makes making for dd and dh easy!

I have done so well cooking this week. Well at least compared to the whole rest of the summer! lol I'm so thankful for these threads to get inspiration.
I have errands to run after work then will have my DGS for the evening and he is *busy* so I think we'll order pizza.

We're having grilled chicken breasts, tortellini with tomatoes and corn, carrot salad, fresh fruit, herbed focaccia, assorted cookies for dessert, and lemonade. Both the tortellini salad and the carrot salad are new recipes. Not sure what I was thinking. I try to limit it to only one new recipe per meal just in case my family doesn't care for the new one. I guess I was feeling reckless today.

After two nights of enduring a not-so-good new casserole recipe, we finally caved and pitched the rest of it. Looking forward to a regular meal of creamy crockpot pork chops, mashed potatoes, and a nice green salad. Homemade brownies for dessert.

I need to come to Iowa. My mom's dryer isn't working so she's coming over to wash and dry some laundry and she said she's bringing a pot of ham, green beans and potatoes with her.

Tell me how you make your sauce. My Hungarian grandmother made the best cabbage rolls. We are having Mexican chicken and black beans over Quiona with sautéed Zuchinni.

I made pesto this afternoon so we're having it with roasted vegetables and pasta. I also made a chick pea and tomatoe salad and some peach salsa that I though we could have with chips while the pasta cooks. And, like everyone else at this time of the year, corn on the cob!

Salmon. For the kids, I will just sprinkle cajun powder on. For me, a sour cream and dill sauce.
Backed potatoes.
A vegetable - what I am not sure.
