For me it's gonna be crock pot roast beef sandwiches. I marinated a 3-4 pound chuck roast in Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, wine and garlic the other night. This morning before I left for work I stuck it in the crock pot with some taters, carrots, onions and some water & onion soup mix and a lot of montreal steak seasoning. By the time I get home it will have been cooking for 10 hours. the meat just falls apart, perfect for sandwiches with lots of juice for dunking. Just gotta grab some rolls on the way home. We'll probably be having the leftovers for dinner tomorrow too.

What are you having for dinner tonight?

Backyard BBQ burgers. I buy cheap steak and the wife turns it into ground beef. I can't go back to regular ground beef patties now. Plus a nice bell pepper salad and a few dark beers. Mmmm... it's not even lunchtime here!

Beef stroganoff! I haven't had a home cooked meal since last Friday.

Tostadas with fresh guacamole. I've had some avocados ripening for the last few days and now its time to put them to use!

We've got the same issue. I am planning to make tacos/burritos/taco salad. Two days ago we had avocado burgers and child-safe (I.e. bland) guacamole nachos with bell peppers.

However, it's Friday night, so we may head to Metro Pointe for live music and second-rate customized pizza.

Curry, veg, cocoanut, no exact recipe.
Just throw stuff in the curry and hope it works.

Just get creative, add spices n serve with rice.

A melon with strawberrys. I eat a healthy dinner tonight.

Im also a lover of crockpot roasts! My wife makes one where the ingredients are a packet of powdered ranch mix, a bunch of pepperchinos and its juices, annd....uh.... Crud theres one other ingredient but I cant think of it. Anywho that stuff is the cheesewhizz! I just had it for my birthday dinner a few nights ago. Crockpot food is awesome because you literally dump food into a bucket and forget about it till later lol

A stick of butter. That was it

Chicken with Crumbs

Placed boned chicken breasts (8-10) pieces in buttered Pyrex dish. Mix 1 can cream of chicken soup with 1/2 cup white wine or sherry. Pour over chicken. Sprinkle with dry Pepperidge farm herbed stuffing. Drizzle with 4-6 tbsp melted butter. Bake at 350° 45-60 minutes.

Serve with rice, peas, and cranberry sauce.


Just making a half recipe, and skipping the cranberry sauce. Easy, good, and re-heats well.

Simple Crock Pot Roast

Items needed
-Roast
-Packet of Ranch Dressing (powder not salad dressing)

Place 2-3 pound Roast in crock pot then put packet of Au Jus and Ranch Dressing on top of roast then stick of butter on top of that. If you want you can put pepperoncinis on it as well at this point. Set crock pot to

My biggest regret from moving into an apartment is the loss of my grill.

I tried cooking bavarian goulash from a book and it went pretty well

Pasta Carbonara, of sorts - that bacon is going old so I'd better use it now. Easy food for sure.

Chinese red roast pork.

The neighbours hate us whenever we make this.

Because you don't share? Lol

I made guacamole from scratch while my roommate made tacos. Meaning he cooked some meat and I had to make my own tacos.

That and it's like a soy nuclear bomb went off in the hallways.

Chicken cordon bleu with rice and corn on the cob.

A Frozen pizza. Red Baron's special deluxe.

Breakfast for dinner: eggs with spinach, peppers and sausage, toast and pineapple.

I love me some breakfast for dinner! Had omelets last night at our house. Diced red onion, bell pepper, Irish sausage and smoked Gouda, topped with a dollop of Crème Fraiche and chopped herbs. Nom, nom...

Cadia, producers of the finest Shock Troops and Eggs.

Grilled up some Mahi Mahi/Dolphin, came out GREAT. Had a big spinach salad and a quinoa/rice mix as well.

Fried catfish, some noodles in a garlic and olive oil sauce, and a side of olives.

Tonight is gonna be veal parm night. And probably just some regular pasta on the side. I made the sauce last night outta grinded up fresh tomatoes. Always seems to taste better the next day, I guess the flavors all mix together better when it has time to rest.

In honor of



We'll be celebrating the valiant defenders of Puebla by baking tortilla bowls, then filling them with chorizo, refried beans (mixed with taco seasoning, ground spicy sausage, diced tomatoes and jalapeños) shredded lettuce, fresh pico de gallo, guacamole and so on.

Damned good chow! Viva la villa de Puebla!

Tonight was taco night. I’m all about borrowing other country’s celebrations as an excuse to cook something off my normal menu. Plus it’s my weekend with The Boy, and he loves tacos.

He prefers fajitas, but I can’t grill at my new place. /sad

Local bars on one of our main streets had Mexican food trucks serving up delicious Cinco de Mayo fare. Chiles Rellenos and Ahi tacos...oh, yeah!

I grilled up the chorizos we used yesterday evening when I grilled up the dolphin we ate. Kitchen still smells like freshly chopped cilantro and chorizo as I type this. Good stuff!

One of my favorite things is how my hands smell like Cilantro after I chop up a bunch for Guacamole. Now I'm hungry...
