Choco chips of any kind are too dangerous to keep in my house...LOL... but I am actually eyeing the bottle of white vinegar right now... wondering what it might be like to dip the pretzel in... I am guessing really wrong... LOL... had to head over to the cravings thread... I am blaming it all on YOU...LOL

I had a large package of 6 chicken cutlets. I should have divided them into 3 smaller packages and frozen, but never got around to it.

For tonight's dinner, I decided to cut the chicken cutlets into strips and sautee them in a little EVOO and garlic. When the chicken was done I removed it and to the pan added broccoli florets, diced red pepper, Swiss chard, and more garlic. I will toss that all together with bowtie pasta and top with pine nuts as soon as DH is ready for dinner. Done!

Simultaneously, while making the above, I just pan fried the other 4 cutlets. No breading, nothing fancy - just plain chicken cutlets. I'll freeze 2 of them already cooked and do something completely different with the remaining 2 of them tomorrow. I won't get to the store until at least Thursday, so something profound has to strike me with on hand ingredients. Since they're cooked already, it will probably be something quick, easy and nukable - my favorite combination.

Oh I didn't tell you what was for dessert. Homemade almond flavored ice cream. Hubby got me an electric ice cream maker for my birthday. Very dangerous appliance this is. It is now the most used appliance in the house. LOL If I keep making ice cream I am going to gain 500 pounds.

I like to make those phone calls once in awhile, too, Lacey. And, JFR, Subway is always a life-saver when the doggone chicken just won't thaw. I think it is poultry revenge some nights!!

CheyDee, I can almost taste your dinner with the chicken cutlets. Sounds great. I really like the idea of cooking up the entire package a few different ways and having a couple of meals in reserve. That is right up my galley!!

I love this thread. I'm already hatching - no, not that kind of hatching - tomorrow night's dinner just from reading through today's posts. Thanks, y'all!

[quote=gemkeeper;5006017]The chicken is roasting as we speak, errrr, type. Rubbed it with mayo, used some dry thyme inside and out, fresh garlic cloves inside and under the loose skin on the outside, some fresh rosemary, carrots, onions and celery for the body cavity. It smells divine!!

I'm going to make a pan gravy from the drippings, flour and milk. Potato, bread, celery, and onion dressing that I don't cook in the bird any longer for safety's sake.

Fresh cranberry and orange salad with just a bit of scallion chopped on top as garnish and buttery corn on the side.

Oooh, sounds so good! I think I just repped you so I can't again. This is the kind of cooking I wish I had the verve for nowadays! I know as soon as it's cold, I'll be back. Hopefully I'll be wowing you all the way this post "wowed" me.

YOU GUYS ARE KILLING ME!!!!!

I've just read I think about 8 pages of chicken recipes and I have no idea which one sounds better than the next. They are ALL scrumptilicious!!!

I'm going to be cooking chicken for the next 5 years!

For dinner I had another 1/4 avocado with a bunch of whole wheat organic crackers no less and some hummus and a cup of green tea and a apple. I'M STARVING!

BF made chicken soup for himself.

I'm really drooling on the keyboard reading everyone's fabulous-sounding chicken ideas; tried to rep a bunch of y'all, but the forum keeps telling me I have to be nice to other people first. You know, if the posters in some of these other threads were as nice to be around as y'all are, that would be a whole heckuva lot easier to do.

Came in the side door this evening to find the spouse cutting up a variety of vegetables while simultaneously roasting one of the poblano peppers we got in the CSA box this weekend, so I'm thinking that a spicy stirfry of some kind is in the offing. He's always apologetic about the extra dishes from stirfry, but I consider it a more than fair trade-off, considering how wonderful the results taste.

Gotta tackle the rest of the clutter in the living room tonight after supper, and make up the bed in the spare bedroom. I didn't get as much done this weekend as I had planned, so I'll be making up for it all week.
