What's for dinner?

bearsandbeets7 · April 2016

I've been on a cooking kick recently and I am running out of ideas. What's for dinner tonight?

I have been craving pesto everything lately so tonight we are having bow tie pasta with homemade pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, parmesan and grilled chicken. Also Caesar salad!

I'm making baked chicken breast with roasted green beans and yellow spanish rice

We're doing take-out but I cook most nights. Would love to hear some new ideas too though - maybe we could start a weekly thread?

I've been trying to make more fast & easy dinners. Melissa Joulwan's "hot plates" concept from Well Fed have been great. The basic idea is to precook meats and veggies on Sunday, then combine, heat and add a little extra (sauce, herbs, etc.) when it's dinner time. This Sunday I grilled fajita chicken and roasted squash, zucchini, onion and bell pepper. Threw it all in a skillet last night to reheat, added a squeeze of lime and a few dashes of hot sauce, then topped with fresh avocado. Healthy dinner in about 10 minutes and there are tons of combinations meat + veg that work!

Tonight's dinner will be pretty good! We are having salmon, rice pilaf & roasted broccoli. Last night, on the other hand, I was a total slacker...we had frozen pizza.

I'll be having leftovers from last night -- I made a version of this red pepper pasta sauce from Pioneer Woman, which is one of my favorite quick and easy recipes! I add sauteed chicken and mushrooms to mine, and also dump in a bunch of spinach at the end (see, it's a healthy pasta!).This stuff is good, DH loves it, too.

Sounds delish! The Pioneer Woman's baked ziti is also very yummy!

Porkchops and sweet corn (frozen from last summer).

We are having coconut curry chicken with peppers and onions over brown rice.

@MaggieAverill That sounds amazing - can I come over for dinner tonight?!

PW's baked ziti also freezes very well. I will definitely be making some to freeze before baby comes! ☺

It was our ds's 7th birthday so he got to pick dinner last night. We had blueberry pancakes, eggs, and sausage.

Mrsrundell · April 2016

@jamiesc58 omg I like your sons style! Breakfast for dinner is the freaking bomb!

mmclark10 · April 2016

These all sound so good! I'm taking notes for grocery shopping this weekend!

megframe16 · April 2016

I made chicken taquitos! They were so good!! We did chips and salsa, refried beans, and a fruit salad for sides!

pelorunningmama · April 2016

I think tonight will be leftover pesto chicken over cauliflower rice with asparagus on the side. But, I'm really craving mexican. @megframe16 I blame your post for this! Taquitos sound delicious, as does chips, salsa, and a big bowl of queso. Oh and fajitas and enchiladas.

mmclark10 · April 2016

Enchiladas at our house tonight, with salad or broccoli on the side. @LWC1112
