What's for supper?

[Beth Gallagher]

It must be Mexican food day, Krystal!! We're having taco salad, queso and chips, and cold beer!

 

[Marie Miller]

Brie, crackers, Merlot unless SO decides not to hang out at his play date.

 

[Faye Fox]

Traditional baked potato with butter, cheese, and sour cream.

 

[Hedi Mitchell]

Chicken stew

 

[Beth Gallagher]

Caesar salad with grilled chicken, fresh baguette.

 

[Faye Fox]

Ditto on yesterday. I always bake two potatoes, so that kind of in-depth cooking, makes two meals.

 

[Krystal Shay]

Salad day here too, @Beth Gallagher. I am having a lettuce salad. My husband is having a bowl of chili, which was leftover in the freezer.

 

[John Brunner]

I may make some fried chicken and mashed potatoes/gravy tonight. For some reason, I got a hankering.

When I get that hankerin', I send the Better Half to Popeyes.

I love Popeye's. But it was a trip to Popeye's that got me back to frying chicken at home. A 16 piece box with no sides (the cheapest per-piece option) is $38. That's almost $2.40 per piece of chicken. When I saw that, I went across the parking lot to Walmart and bought a whole chicken for $5, took it home, cut it up and fried it. That also made me realize how tiny the pieces of Popeyes are. One half of a fryer breast is larger than a whole Popeye's breast. I hate to think how much per pound those puny pieces are. I know that fried chicken has always been more disproportional to the grocery store prices than any fast food, but these days it's way out of control.

(That being said, I see that Popeye's now has fried shrimp. So I may change tonight's menu. )

 

[Faye Fox]

Our Popeyes is terrible. Overcooked food and high prices. Only chicken place in the area worth going is KFC.

I ate my supper baked potato for lunch so for supper I am having a hoagie roll buttered, then sprinkled heavy with 9 years past expiration date Johnny's Garlic Spread, then parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese on it, then sprinkled with hot paprika and then toasted.

Oven baked baby back ribs, salad, baked crown postotes- crowns are like tater tots but flatter

 

[Marie Miller]

SO brought all the fixings for beef or chicken fajitas and then some from his play date.

 

[Connie Bennett]

High protein Boost. That’s it. It’s hot. Food does not sound good

I see the AC getting turned on this week. It’s only mid-April

 

[Janine Coral]

Toasted meatball sandwich with Swiss cheese. Glass of milk..

 

[Krystal Shay]

Beef tips, broccoli, and gravy served over brown rice.

 

[Marie Miller]

SO brought one of those takeout containers filled to the brim with grilled beef and chicken fajita meat from his play date. It was still warm. A quick text to a neighbor and junior was at the door. A bag of Thai pepper almond brittle for dad.

Something with long pasta and rabbit food. Sugo?

What the heck kind of "playdate" does your partner go to that he comes home with lots of food?

 

[Beth Gallagher]

Nothing sounds good to me. I guess I'll make some green chile chicken enchiladas since I have rotisserie chicken in the freezer. I think I have some cooked red beans in there, too. I can toss some cilantro and spices in them to make ranch beans.

Bratwurst hotdog with sauerkraut on top.
