A co-worker and myself always ask around the 3-4 pm lull..... "What's for dinner?". It has actually made us stop and think of something good to whip up, rather than running thru the drive thru on the way home. It also gives us good ideas when we can't think of anything new to make.....


So, I'd like to take the opportunity and ask all of you....

    Actually kind of splurging tonight! I'm making patty melts on sourdough (id rather have them on rye but we already had sourdough from BLTs this weekend).

    Tonight it's pasta shells (spinach, wheat and plain mixed), lots of grilled veggies in 1 tbsp olive oil mixed in (carrots, spinach, tomatoes, onion, mushroom), an Aidell's chicken italian sausage, 1/4 cup shredded cheddar and some spices.

    I'm fighting high cholesterol, so I'm always trying to exceed my fiber goal so I always have a pot of beans & greens cooked. My versions use black beans & kale, kidney beans & spinach or whatever I have. I also Cook up Costco turkey burger & salmon burger patties & have them ready.

    I had green beans, coconut shrimp, a small piece of baked haddock, and a zucchini patty. Trying to watch my carbs. Somewhere in the 45-75 range is my goal, and I'm a vegetarian. It's been a challenge, but dinner tonight was filling. Anyone that would like to friend me, please do.

    Tonight is crock pot chili (it's my birthday, along with cleaning day, so I planned ahead so I didn't have to cook)

    Tomorrow is pesto salmon and stuffing (requested by my boyfriend since it's his birthday..not the healthiest but I'll deal!)

    Friday we're going out to eat to celebrate and Saturday/Sunday will be chicken and/or leftovers.

    lasagna with zucchini instead of pasta. Roasted brussel sprouts, and garlic bread sticks.
    Last night was breakfast for dinner (frittata with mushrooms, leeks, and tomato, fruit salad, and homemade chicken breakfast sausage). Tomorrow night is sriracha salmon, big salad, and lemon parpadelle pasta.

    Do you have the dijonaise recipe I can borrow? That sounds so good!
