It is early in the day, but... what is for dinner?

I need some inspiration for something simple, yet amazing, since I actually have someone to cook for tonight!

Re: It is early in the day, but... what is for dinner?

  • Totally not amazing, but simple.....breakfast burritos (sausage/potato/chz/egg) and fresh strawberries. 

    Pasta with a great jarred sauce and garlic bread is simple.

    or marinate some chicken, served with a potato and rolls.

  • I have a flank steak marinating in teriaki sauce.  I'll throw that on the grill when I get home.  Not sure about sides yet.  Probably steamed brocolli and some kind of potatoes or rice.

  • You'd have to hit the grocery store, but what about a pasta like baked ziti, a big green salad and dinner rolls? Dessert is angel food cake with fresh strawberries and whipped cream (easy to make homemade if he has a mixer).

  • Nope, no mixer!

     

    Um, I don't even know if he has a mixing bowl!

     I am lucky he has a skillet.  And a 9x13 pan (that I left here last time), and a cookie sheet I made him buy.

  • He's such a guy. DH didn't have any of that stuff either before I moved in.

    We are having burgers and corn all done on the grill.

  • seafood enchiladas.

    This is the recipe we use.  We do flour tortillas instead of corn, and it still works perfectly if you don't like onion and skip it.  (dh hates onions, le sigh) We don't drain the green chiles, it adds more flavor to make up for the lack of onion.  The kids even eat it as long as we keep the hot sauce/jalepenos out of it so we add our own at the table.  Super yum.  Goes well w/white wine or beer, too lol

  • Ooo I can actually add something to this today!

    Made the PW's tequila lime chicken last night (sans tequila, even) and it was FABULOUS. Seriously. And very easy...and that's saying something, considering I burn rice.

  • Does he have a grill? You could grill chicken and steak kabobs (marinate in some italian dressing). Make a salad and have with rice.

  • Well, we are having sausage and pancakes since we are out of frozen pancakes and I need to get a stock again since Cohen loves them.  That is simple, but definitely not amazing! Smile

  • Yes, this is very much a bachelor pad.  That's okay.  At least it has cable.  And is two hours away from my house, ex, work, life.

     

    I have a busy afternoon of laying out this afternoon!
