Last night we wound up ordering pizza. I was in one of those "I don't feel like cooking" moods. Unfortunately, we have truly lousy pizza out here and it's just marginally edible at best, but at least I didn't have to cook. LOL!
Someone mentioned pepper steak, which stuck in my head, so that is what I'll make tonight. Thinly sliced steak, (have to check the freezer and choose which type), with chunks of green bell pepper and onions, all sauteed together then smothered in brown gravy and served atop brown rice.
I'm making a Kahlua ice cream pie for dessert, since it's still in the high 90's/low 100's here daily and still "ice cream weather". Maybe it will last the whole weekend. (Yeah, right!)
Beat eggs, milk & vanilla well. Mix cinnamon & nutmeg into sugar and add that to the eggs, milk & vinilla mixture stir well. Add raisens and rice to your mixture and again stir well. Pour this into baking dish and bake 1 hour at 350'
I've never tried lean cuisine products. How are they?
Some of them are really good Mike....trust me.
Grilled caesar chicken is good pasta dishes desserts are great. I had key lime pie last night...that one is my favorite ooops I believe that is called Smart One. Thsoe are made by Weight Watchers.
Then I agree with South Down.....let tomorrow or Sunday be the day you celebrate your BDay by your taking her out for dinner, at your favorite resturant. When we are "big" the exactness of the day isnt really important. Tonight just treat yourself to what ever you like: be it pizza or chinese or left overs or hormel chili. (I know it wont be pollock au gratin.)
Or if you are at home you can make anything special......just set the table nice, dim the lights and light the candles. Doesn't matter what you eat, it's who you share it with.
Where have my manners gone!? I have been meaning to welcome the new posters You will enjoy this thread if you hang around

njmike, I lied. My dinner was a Weight Watchers Smart Ones.
Some of them are quite good. Not much to them, but if you add a salad to them, they'll get your so you're not quite so hungry. I like the Italian style ones, like the stuffed mannicotti. This was the first time I had the primavera and I was pleased with it.
May I add a note about the Lean Cuisines and Smart Ones.......
I was at a standstill with my diet.....found out that it was because of the sodium . I had the same problem with Trader Joes. Love them all but not good for the BP
Just be careful............Now I am losing like crazy.
