Guest guest Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 What are you planning to make for dinner tonight? I thought it might be nice to share our plans for dinner tonight, or this week. It could inspire a person to try something new or give ideas to people who might not know what sounds good right now. The weather has taken a turn for cooler today here in Oregon so I am planning to make lasagne for our Sunday meal. Salad, garlic bread and extra sauce on the side. ~ PT ~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 I'm about to go pick over some pinto beans and soak them. I may make cornbread to go with them tonight or just have them in tortillas with cheese and sour cream. I'm thinking about doing some kind of veggie chili this week. I want to try a new recipe. I will post one if I get around to making it. Susie --- On Sun, 10/18/09, patchouli_troll <patchouli_troll wrote: patchouli_troll <patchouli_troll Dinner?

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 I've been out all day I'm too tired to cook. I'm sure I have a veggie pizza in the freezer and that will have to do. I've cooked every day this week so it's my day off. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Audrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Number 1 son was here today working on the tornado damage here so I made veggie pot stickers in a veggie broth. He and his father ate themselves sick. Jeanne in GA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Well - I'm trying to salvage my lentil loaf! I took it apart, added an envelope of onion soup mix and a half can of condensed tomato soup, some salt and pepper...mixed it with the electric mixer...and it is now in the oven. Will let you know if I am having it for dinner! ________________________________ Audrey Z Burrows <quiltbug Sun, October 18, 2009 2:59:24 PM Re: Re: Dinner?

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 I'm making a barley and green bean soup... I'm not sure what else will go in it, whatever I've got I guess... onions, carrots, and seasoned with bay leaf, pepper and oregano... some rosemary would be nice in it too. I spent this weekend sick with a stomach flu so I'm going with " warm " and " easy to digest " ... not to mention " I forgot I had that in the fridge!

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 So I had cabbage & potatoes and didn't want to make colcannon. I searched on cabbage + potatoes and what came up at the top of the search results was an Ethiopian recipe calling for those two ingredients plus carrots & onions (both of which I had on hand. So I set about making it, and it was fabulous. I've put the recipe below. ETHIOPIAN CABBAGE DISH INGREDIENTS * 1/2 cup olive oil * 4 carrots, thinly sliced * 1 onion, thinly sliced * 1 teaspoon sea salt * 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper * 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin * 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric * 1/2 head cabbage, shredded * 5 potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes DIRECTIONS 1. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the carrots and onion in the hot oil about 5 minutes. Stir in the salt, pepper, cumin, turmeric, and cabbage and cook another 15 to 20 minutes. Add the potatoes; cover. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until potatoes are soft, 20 to 30 minutes. I used about half that much olive oil, and used more spices, to taste. It was so fragrant while it was cooking, good the first night, but on subsequent lunches, it was even more delicious. I think it would have been good with flatbread, but I didn't have any and just ate it plain out of the bowl. Enjoy! Ellen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
