Answer 1

Tonight we are doing BLT sandwiches and chips for daddy and I. I'll probably make macaroni salad as well so my daughter will get some of that along with her formula.



ETA: Me too! Plus it is 96 degrees here and I'm not in the mood to cook something that takes a long time and is hot lol

Answer 2

If the husband comes home before dinner, I'm going to try to talk him into taking us out to eat. If not I'll make a simple pasta salad with what I have on hand. The basic recipe I use:



-1 box whole grain rottini pasta, cooked as directed and rinsed with cold water

-1 zucchini, sliced about 1/4 inch thick and then sliced into 4's

-1/2 a green bell pepper

-about 1/2 cup (more if you like) diced red onion

-Sliced black olives

-about 1/4 cup sliced tomato

-Extra virgin olive oil

-White vinegar

-Salt and pepper

-Dash of garlic powder

Throw the veggies in a big bowl. Coat with equal parts oil and vinegar, or change up to match your tastes. Add pasta and more oil and vinegar, until coated. Mix in salt, pepper, and garlic powder. And you're done!



The good part about this easy salad is that you can substitute whatever veggies you like or have on hand. I've done it with fresh (raw) broccoli and red and yellow bell peppers, and it's always good.

Answer 3

the little one had Zucchini, which he LOVED!!!



Daddy and I had what I call poor man's stir fry :-)



1lb ground beef

whatever frozen veggies in the house

Soy sauce

Rice



Brown the meat, add frozen veggies and soy sauce to taste and stir it around until veggies are cooked. Dump over some rice and you are done. Looks so gross, but it really is delicious :-) Funny what you come up with when you have very little in the house and you don't want to go to the store!

Answer 4

Sounds good!



My daughter is having green beans and pears tonight for dinner. Doesn't sound like a great combination to me but she doesn't mind. She will not eat her fruit unless she has veggies first. I thought getting her to eat fruit would be easier than veggies but I was wrong!



My husband and I are having bacon-wrapped turkey tenderloins on the grill with sweet corn and potato's (not sure what kind yet).

Answer 5

Tonight me and my husband are having

Smoked sausage with a baked potato with coarseseasalt rub and fresh green beans. My 4 1/2 mth old daughter will be having formula and probably squash or peas baby food. yum yum lol

Answer 6

Ohh Ohh dinner question, tonight we wil be having, steak and sausage in a gravy, along with green beans, mixed with cheese and tasso, and black eyed peas. Oh I can't wait to go home and eat, all I ate was a salad today.

Answer 7

First of all, that sounds really, really good!



Today, sadly my daughter's and I have to have Mac&Cheese!

I'm a single mother of two daughter's, so to say the least we don't have gourmet meals, but it's fun anyways =]



We're doing Mac&Cheese (fast, good and cheap)

And then for dessert, I'm making my 'famous' chocolate cake that I picked up at Food Maxx =]

Answer 8

Well im in the UK so my daughter ate dinner about 6 hours ago, she had homemade sweet n sour chicken with rice and a banana custard yogurt.



xx

Answer 9

I cooked this 5 pound pot-roast on Friday. We're still eating it. Tonight should be the last of it -- cut up into a ratatouille type mix of eggplant, peppers, chilis, potatoes and other goodies.



(My daughter is teenager, and she will pick out the peppers, but eat the rest of it.)

Answer 10

Eureka Pizza is doing a special where if you bring in one canned food item, you get a large pizza for $1.99! So, that's what we're having for dinner tonight...LOL. Nice and easy, which I like seeing as I am 35 weeks with my second.



As for my daughter, not sure. She's one of those rare 2yr old who doesn't like pizza. :)

Answer 11

Not too sure, probably whatever my mom fixes him. I'm working tonight(part time at my old high school job while I'm visiting my family) so I won't be around for dinner.

Answer 12

For me and my fiance, Spaghetti.

For my son, just formula. LOL. I'm looking forward to getting to try out cereals and other foods in a few months.

Answer 13

We are making Patty Melt's and French Fries. I'm sure Colten will love it!

Answer 14

We are having steak and mushroom melt pizza. Instead of sauce its cheese sauce...Very very yummy.

Answer 15

Answer 16

We are having leftover spaghetti and steamed broccoli.

Answer 17
