WFD

What's for dinner?
I know its early but I haven't decided on cooking or takeout. Hoping for inspiration. And I'm always hungry.

Re: WFD

  • It'll either be spaghetti or sub sandwiches. :)

  • My husband mentioned something about going to Red Robins. Of course he would want to go somewhere that is pretty much nothing but meat when I'm having a serious aversion to meat right now.
  • Ugh, Im still full from my left over pizza lunch. I am honestly not sure… probably sloppy joes.  :))

  • Buttermilk waffles, eggs and bacon. We do breakfast for dinner once a week usually.

    I sooooo get this. There is a Red Robin next door to my gym and the smell walking in and out of there can turn my stomach. I just try to picture the steak fries with ranch the whole time.

    Edit: typo
  • @hlmdeck - My hubby told me, "They have salads there too." I know I had this look of disbelief on my face and I told him, "For their prices, I'm not going to be one to just get a salad." He laughed at me.
  • Hubby's out of town so The toddler and I will probably have frozen pizza, unless I can find inspiration here.

    @tigeraj8170 They have chocolate covered brownie sticks on their dessert menu that I want to try.... dessert for dinner? haha
  • I have ground beef in the fridge I'd like to use instead of freeze. I've been wanting to a pot pie so maybe I'll try that with the ground meat instead of chicken!
  • It's supposed to be 90 degrees today through the weekend with a heat index of 106 so not sure what the hubby will want tonight, he works as an airplane technician with no air conditioning so he usually wants only cold food/fruit.  

    Ideally, I'd like to make homemade chicken noodles with mashed potatoes or order a pizza but it could end up being Jimmy John's and watermelon!

  • @Achae - I know my hubs would look at me like I was crazy if I did that but that sounds soo good. May have to try it and let you know what I thought. :-)
  • Friday is leftover night here! Stuffed shells and soup!


  • I'll probably order a pizza because I really don't want to cook with the football game is on :)

  • Maybe chicken and rice. I took out chicken, I'm just not sure if we have rice
  • I have fish in the freezer for tonight----but we usually do pizza on Friday nights so I am leaning more and more towards that.

  • I really just want pancakes and eggs for dinner, but I already talked my husband into doing that last Friday night, so I don't know that I'll get my way again.  But that's really all that I'm interested in ingesting.

  • My husband works till five and I woke up to my back hurting so bad I can't bend over...I'm thinking we are ordering pizza tonight. Unless my loving husband comes home wanting to cook!
  • I dread dinner every night. Meat sucks to me right now. Especially when I cook it. That being said.... Pizza.

    The pancake part sounds good. Carbs are the only thing that ever sounds good to me and doesn't make me nauseas
  • Pork chops w a red wine reduction, sauteed squash, and probably a bit of ceasar salad.

    Yeah that sounds delicious! I wish I was at your house for dinner!!

    is there a secret to reductions? I've done a cider reduction once before and I just felt like there was too much "stuff" going on in the pan. (i also had apples and onions in there so that's probably why i felt that.) I'm usually a baked chops girl...

    Ok, I totally made shepherds pie last night and was wondering if you had a special recipe? I know it sounds dumb but when I told my husband how my mom had always made it growing up, he told me I was wrong and I ended up making it completely different than I was used to and didn't like it near as much lol!

    Thanks ladies! Yes, please come over bc I don't get around much anymore.

    Not really a secret. @Bfavors...I let the wine cook down for a few mins, throw in some beef broth for a few mins and then a pat of butter then it's done. The garlic and pork chops just swim in the pan.
  • Pasta with chicken and tomatoes
  • Queso&salsa, little smokies and cold pasta salad. Taking it easy tonight for the football game. :D
  • Oh man, I'm pretty late on this one. I made homemade chicken soup! Exactly what I wanted :)
  • @ashcody2 I didn't realize there were that big of differences for shepherds pie. I always due ground beef, carrots, peas, top with mashed potatoes! How did you/your husband do it?
  • We seem to be getting a lot of take out lately.

    Tonight we're getting Chili's to-go. Steak, mashed potatoes, broccoli, and a side salad for me lol
  • Canned soup, easy night :)

    We do it with ground lamb, tomato paste, worchestershire sauce, Rosemary, thyme etc. no carrots, only peas and corn. With mashed potato on top that's made with half and half and a egg yolk.
