Hey Grandpa, What's for Supper? Part 2

[thechickenchick]

I agree with you about the crock-pot! I have 2 different sizes, I use them all the time. What a great invention!

I decided on a fresh lettuce salad with onion, pickles, hard boiled eggs, cubes of pepper jack cheese, carrots, cucumber, tomatoes, crumbled bacon and warm seasoned chicken cubes. I made French dressing too.

I also baked a loaf of jalapeno bread.

Its hubby's Friday so I will serve a glass of wine with it.

I love coming here when I'm stumped...

Redfeathers.. may I please have the applesauce cake recipe? ...and thechickenchick.. may I please have your jalapeno bread recipe?

The crockpot was calling me this morning, before DH and I left for our class ..but I got caught up messing with "kids" and ran out of time. I thought about tossing some chuck and tomatoes in there, with some fresh herbs, etc. ..and letting that work itself into some sauce for a couple meals this week .....spaghetti ..lasagna ..and so on. I may still do that

I've been craving Carbonara for the last day or so ..may have to make that and something roasted for the entree..... hmmm.. I have enough fresh Arugula here, too ....I can wilt that with some other fresh greens ..add some walnuts and shallots.

...made my own mouth water..

redfeathers- I made applesauce cake yesterday also!! I didn't put rasins in though DH doesn't like them.

I also made freezer bread-4 loaves, out on the range cookies, and flour tortillas.

For dinner, I made homemade eggroll wrappers and put a hamburger filling in them, fried them and served them with bbq sauce and cheese sauce and wine for DH and I, milk for the Gkids.

Tonight, chili mac with cheddar and parmesan on top. I'm using homemade chili I made last week.

chickenchick- Please on the jalapeno bread recipe.

Tonight I made Sweet Cajun Beef Stew - DH loves it, but it's a bit spicy for the rest of us!

last night was easy night, homemade cream of tomato soup and grilled cheese. Tonight was a treat, got a take home pizza from Walmart today. I made a chocolate cake in the bread machine, ok it was easy but its just a bit more tiny than I expected but I guess that just means there wont be 2nds setting around.

We're having Gatlinburg soup, fast and delicious.

 

[Aneesa's Muse]

Chicken, broccoli and roasted pepper fettucini alfredo! A darn migraine snuck up on me ..so I did fast and easy

 

[BrahmaMama]

All of these meals sound delicious...making my mouth water, and it's only 9 am here!

I think tonight I'll do a crockpot beef stroganoff, maybe some corn or another type of veggie. I've really been craving corn for some reason lol!
