What's for Dinner Saturday?

I tried a new chicken dish today. Marinated boneless breasts in a soy/orange juice/garlic/sesame oil for several hours, then sauteed them. Delicious.

I also fried the rest of the bacon, saved most of the grease and sauteed cabbage and onion. Again, delicious.

I had 1 more huge sweet potato.....they were on sale for 45c per lb so half price. Boiled with some Yukon Golds and mashed together. This is a favourite way of eating yams.

I fixed tilapia, a potato, and whole wheat noodles. Your chicken breasts sound like they'd be very good.

Cold in east central Illinois; 1/2" of rain in the past 24 hours. Turkey vegetable soup with lentils. My doc would be proud of me!

Rhizo, you eat pretty healthy most of the time and, besides, that hot dog sounds mighty good! Enjoy!! Shirley, you described your weather so well I got chilly :-) But your dinner would warm anyone's tummy. Rob333, your dinner sounds delicious. I tried frying veggies in tempura batter once and the batter all fell off. I don't know if my grease wasn't hot enough or batter too thin. Just remember being sad I didn't get my tempura broccoli!! Your son will be full of adventure stories to tell you and--I don't think kids ever get tired of the snow. Glenda, you'll be cruisin' before you know it. Sorry you didn't get the dinner you wanted, but LJS isn't a sorry second. Terri, it's so unusual to read that you're having leftovers. I wouldn't think you'd have any with all those big, hungry boys around. Glad for you that you did, though. Momma deserves a night off!

Our friend dropped in on his bicycle this afternoon. He was out on a couple of errands and when he went home he realized that he hadn't taken his house key with him. So he dropped around to put in some time till his neighbours came home who have a spare key. I had taken a baked ziti out of the freezer, and knew there would be enough for 3 of us, so we had that and salads. Some oatmeal-carrot muffins that I made today as well. Terri, I made the hamburger bun recipe that you posted, we had breakfast burgers. I halved the recipe and only got 4 buns out of it, so I'll definitely make a full recipe next time.

I must not be "normal"....I've had some wicked chills all day so it was leftover lentil soup for me. Robert went out to pick up a takeout order from a nearby Mexican restaurant.

Just look what Glenda started! I was debating between finishing up the egg salad or the spaghetti. Spaghetti won. I put a pat of butter in a bowl with a little vermouth and melted the butter than heated up the shrimp and spaghetti. The spaghetti had soaked up all the clam sauce so this just helped to refresh it. Yum!

Just put a pan of enchilada casserole in the oven.

Made 10 min enchilada sauce, used left over pulled pork, cream cheese and cheddar plus pepper jack as the filling, layered between corn tortillas..rest of the sauce on top, and covered with foil..more cheddar at the end..

I have some cookie dough warming a bit from last weekend to get some jam pin wheels baked up..and still have gingerbread dough to cut out too..

A lot of times I don't eat much in the evening since I don't usually have to cook, so just a big mug of hot tea and a couple pieces of buttered toast. I had a nice lunch though late, with Cheryl.

Shrimp Creole over steamed rice. Hubby is happy, I haven't cooked for over a week. Need to get the mojo back!
