Dinner are you tired from a long day at work? do you have sweet and simple quick dinner ideas? were you hungry and made a decision you regretted like a drive through, you intended to be good but....
your favorite Recipes, calories etc.

    I had some rice cakes with ham, tomato and low fat cheese. I wasn't very hungry and I'd been at the beach for a couple of hours as we're having a heat wave here. I'm really stuck in a rut with my dinners lately, they usually consist of a green salad with either grilled chicken or beef which I'm heartily sick of. I try to avoid takeaways and when you live by yourself you tend to eat the whole pizza and not just a few slices :embarassed:

    I find winter cooking much easier, especially soups which I divide up and freeze. Just heat and eat!

    Where are you at to have a heat wave? I know when it hot I don't get hungry, just salads and melons

    My husband cooked a tri tip on the bbq, which was marinated in a soy sauce, ginger, garlic, green onions and chile peppers rice vinegar , I had the same marinated for my Tofu, which I had cut firm tofu into strips, and pan seared them.
    our stir fry veggies were Carrots, mustard greens, Chinese broccoli,white onion,celery, with minced ginger and garlic.
    and Brown Tsuri rice. I made a soy sauce and corn starch to make it all saucy......now when I was shopping and put tofu in the cart my husband was oh gross your not feeding me that etc, but I saw this amazing recipe on Pinterest...so i had to try it. and it was a success for my whole family. :)

    it was a lazy Saturday here.
