AKathy's "What's For Dinner?" 08/21

We are going to the local diner for the broasted chicken dinner special with friends. Yum!

DH and I are heading out to the Iowa State Fair later this afternoon, it's the last day, it's half price admission and the high today is only going to be 76 degrees...my kind of weather!

I plan on splitting an Ultimate Bacon Brisket Grilled Cheese Sandwich with DH, probably shove a corn dog in my mouth also and then something sweet....either the fresh strawberry ice cream one of the concessions have or a Coconut Toasted Coconut Carmel Cluster.

Tomorrow I plan on going to the gym.

It's my birthday today, so my husband is cooking dinner tonight. Rib-eye steak with sauteed mushrooms and onions, baked potato, some kind of steamed vegetable and I'm making a side salad to go with it. For dessert we are having leftover strawberry shortcake.

bklyngal62: happy birthday

The boy and I had Arby's for dinner, yesterday, after dropping my dad off to visit with his friends.

So, today, I am going with something not substantial. Thinking scrambled eggs and toast.

Since it is just the boy and I, it works.

First things first... thanks much for the birthday wishes yesterday!

And, Happy Birthday  bklyngal62!

Have some leftovers in the freezer that need attention so think I'll fix a beef pot pie with leftover pot roast and veggies. Got some beef stock to make gravy and a Bisquick top crust. It's a plan!

marianne! I missed your birthday yesterday! Happy belated birthday!

Grilling some steaks, baked potatoes and fresh corn on the cob. Yummo.

We had company and ate out three times since Friday, so tonight it's homecooking for the win. I had some personal meatloaves in the freezer so we are having meatloaf, twice baked potatoes and brown sugar carrots.

It's Sunday so bacon, eggs and pancakes w/real maple syrup.

I think we're doing what'll probably be our last grilling of the summer. Steak marinated in Dale's sauce, pasta salad, and bacon cheddar red potatoes done in the crockpot. For dessert we'll have peanut butter blondies with dark chocolate chips.

What's left of the potatoes will be mashed up tomorrow and used in a pork BBQ casserole recipe I'm trying out.

I made pot roast in the Instant Pot with potatoes, carrots and green beans. This morning I made rice pudding in it. Dh is thoroughly impressed!  I'm hungry but we're waiting for dd to come home from being out with a friend before we eat. 

I made Tomato Macaroni Soup and Corn on the Cob by request of DH. IT was yummy!

Happy Birthday to bklyngal62

I cooked a whole chicken in the IP and it came out so well. We had some tonight with rice and veggies. I'll use the rest over the next few evenings.
