What Is/Was For Dinner?

[Amishway Homesteaders]

Not much for Supper tonight-

just Chicken cor-don Blue (?)

thats chicken breats that you beat flat , then rollup with ham and swiss cheese slices inside.

Then we put it in crockpot with cream of mushroom soup, and some milk. cook on high for 4 hours.

Had it with stuffing and squash.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM man it was good!

We were having chicken legs, mashed taters and peas, but the chicken smelled funny. We had Dinty Moore instead.

Crockpot full of French onion soup with a jar of my canned beef chunks added to it. Also made Corntack from that military cookbook--like hard tack but with corn for gluten free. Used some as cracker bread on the soup. They taste good! Made cornbread from the same cookbook which turned out fine and will be used in a sausage cornbread strata for breakfast.

Too FUNNY!

I bet a lot of us are having leftovers this weekend!

 

Yes, nice to not have to cook afdter busy week.

Thinking of differant ways to make a turkey meal is about all I can handle - we are so busy with Dollhouse Show Yesterday and other things going on this weekend.

'Turkey' green enchiladas & a bowl of beans.

DD made Girl Scout Ramen Noodle Stuff for brunch. We call it stuff because it's not really a casserole as it's cooked on the stove top and not really a soup because it's really thick.

Pizza for supper - 22 yr tradition that started when dh and I started dating.

[Jeepers]

Turkey sandwich and more of the leftover side dishes.

Will probably have the same thing tomorrow.

Tried cooking au gratin potatoes and ham in the crockpot. Delicious. Put them on about 9 this morning and ate them about 5. Also Jell-O with peaches, fresh cooked squash and pumpkin bread.

Making a big pot of Chili today in the crockpot!!!!!! It's pretty cold here in MS today!!!!

[Annarchy]

We had 1/2 a smoked Cornish hen, rice pilaf and a small garden salad with spinach from the garden. MIL had some smoked ham instead, she does not like/eat 'foul'.

We had our traditional Thanksgiving meal last night. I DON'T want to ever make it an evening meal again!

 

DD and her hubby had to go to his parents' home on Thanksgiving Day, then had too much going on to do it Friday or Saturday. I wouldn't have minded it even on Sunday for lunch, but SHEESH... that much food that late wasn't good.

 

My normal schedule for getting things done at the right times was thrown way off. And at the last minute I found they were having company and I couldn't do the finish-up at their house earlier in the afternoon. Got there and they had no cornstarch to thicken the gravy, so I had to use flour and it was thinner than normal.

 

But the little guy was his usual charming self, and he warmed up to DS and Grandpa a bit more, so it was nice.

 

And today I have leftovers! (And they do, too which is all DD really wanted best, I suspect!! )

 

She said all her in-laws make is turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, and pie. No other veggies, no salads, nada. I think I have her *spoiled*!

 

We had:

turkey

oyster dressing

mashed potatoes & gravy

sweet potatoes with nuts & marshmallows (I misunderstood and thought she WASN'T making mashed potatoes)

green bean casserole

cranberry salad

rolls and butter

pumpkin pie with Cool Whip

 

**Making sure to copy ALL my recipes for her**

Tonight is turkey pot pie and salad with fresh lettuce. We might be eating the last of our fresh lettuce, since we may get a hard freeze tonight.

[Jeepers]

Turkey sandwich and more of the leftover side dishes.

Will probably have the same thing tomorrow.

Yep, that's what I had.

 

I'm playing human garbage disposal since mine is not cooperating.

It's a hard knock life!

 

 

Oh dear, I just realized I'm sitting here talking to myself.

Hi Jeepers!

Hi back at ya.

[windmorn]

Homemade steak teriyak stir-fry (sauce = 1/4 C each: soy sauce, honey, mirin and sake) and store bought Schezchuan Green Beans.

[Amishway Homesteaders]

................. off to find a easy turkey pot pie recipe (sound good for Wed. meal.)

[Amishway Homesteaders]

I am back with a very EASY and what looks like a good meal recipe I found:

Easy Turkey Pot Pie

Ingredients

1 (10.75 ounce) can Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup

1 (9 ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables, thawed

1 cup cubed cooked turkey or chicken

1/2 cup milk

1 egg

1 cup all-purpose baking mix

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Mix soup, vegetables and turkey in 9-inch pie plate.

Mix milk, egg and baking mix. Pour over turkey mixture.

Bake 30 minutes or until golden.

Now I might make and add a pie crust to put in pie plate before everything else to make it more like a turkey pot pie?

Potato Salad

 

Smashed Potatoes

 

Gravy

 

Peas

 

Green Beans

 

Garlic Bread

Dessert was a Black Forest Cake from Wegmans. If we ever move, it will have to be someplace near a Wegmans store so that I don't have to learn to make the kinds of cakes that I can order so easily from them!

Look at the silver lining here, really, I do too. Due to meds causing havoc on my intestines, I've hardly eaten the last two weeks. And lost 4kg in one week so there's never just dark

So last night's diner was half a small rib-eye, green salad with 1 pomodori and 1 olive. Son persuaded me to eat dessert which was a small portion of sticky toffee pudding.

Normally I can eat for King and Country and it shows.

Healthy meal, frugal and delicious.

Dog got the other half of the rib-eye. She thought her birthday and Christmas were rolled into one

[Necie]

Left-over Vege Soup. DH made it the yesterday.

 

Jar of green beans

Jar of small whole potatoes

Jar of tomatoes

Jar of chowder base (has corn, celery, carrots, bacon)

Jar of beef broth

 

Out of crackers but I made Amish Friendship bread yesterday and instead of using flavored pudding to make it different, I tried using a different flavoring extract instead of vanilla. Black Walnut! It is YUMMY!
