What did you have for dinner last night?

Planned on having beans & ham... And i forgot to buy ham. Ooops... So we had french toast & scrambled eggs
 
I love breakfast for dinner! I ate leftovers, and a toasted pita spread with cucumber dill hummus.
 
We had thin boneless pork chops simmered in ketchup, hot sauce, sugar, and water; with creamed corn & buttered noodles. My hubby didn't like how thin the chops were, I swear when I bought them they looked about twice as thick, but the packaging wasn't exactly look-friendly. Overall though, both my hubby & kids loved them. I made 6, 4 regular size & 2 small ones because of the 15 month old, and all I got was the second small one. My hubby says I'm going to kill him with my cooking because it's sooo good. I always tell him I can't make him happy at dinner time because either I make too much & he overeats, or I don't make enough & he can't overeat. Typical...

Now that's what you always want to hear! :D

I watched an episode of Food 911 one time where they did pork chops. They were saying that the secret to good juicy ones is to make sure they are very thick. I've been on guard for that ever since.
 
I like having french toast for dinner, most people think of it as a breakfast food but I think it can go for any meal.
 
I was feeling lazy tonight, and had some leftover hamburger meat... so I made hamburger quesadillas. I just layered refried beans, cheese (I used sliced American cheese because that's what I have on hand), and crumbled, fried hamburger on a tortilla, topped it with another tortilla. Then I put it in a frying pan to crisp the outside and melt the cheese.
 
I made chili tonight using chili-o seasoning, Laura's lean ground beef, and kidney beans. Served the chili over spaghetti noodles with some fresh onion, and a little cheddar cheese. I should have made some corn bread to go with the chili but didn't.
 
I made king ranch casserole tonight. Didn't really feel like it, but I needed to use up the chicken and was feeling lazy.

Tomorrow, steaks on the grill.
 
Steaks on the grill sounds good... unfortunately we're under a burn ban and can't grill outdoors.
 
we were hugely lazy; we went out for dinner last night (mexican). I am thinking tonight about making muffin-tin meatballs.
 
I've never heard of those... Care to share the recipe? My husband loves meatballs but mine always fall apart.
 
Pot roast, with Carrots and Potatoes! yummy! I even blended some up for my daughter. she loved it!
 
I'm stuck... I took out some hamburger meat for dinner tonight, but have no idea what to make with it. It's completely thawed out so I can form it if I need to. I just don't know what to make with it though. We had meatloaf just a couple days ago, and I really don't want it again. My daughter wants Cheeseburger Pie, but we're out of cheese... somebody got into it again & ate the last of it. And of course, no one wants to admit to it, grumble, grumble...
 
Last night we had

BBQ ribs, potatoe salad, grilled summer veggies :)
 
After browsing the beef "things" thread pg. 2, I decided to make Skillet Meatloaf with green beans and elbow macaroni. I will let everyone know how my family likes it. The recipe is about halfway down the page.

Well the Skillet meatloaf was a hit. I liked it, even though I put onions in it and I don't like onions but my husband and daughter do. I did substitute the tomato sauce for ready to eat tomato soup that I had... it simmered down to a nice thick sauce without needing to add water. My husband said it needed more seasonings, but I used the last of my Mrs. Dash the other night. I'm glad Friday is payday, seems like I'm running out of everything this week. But it's my own fault on the Mrs. Dash, I forgot to add it to last payday's (2 weeks ago) shopping list & I forget things if I don't have them on the list.
 
I've never had meatloaf, but I always imagined that it would taste really bad. Don't know why I have that connotation.
 
tonight is going to be kielbasa rice greeen beans and potatoes!
 
Last night, I forgot to take some meat out for dinner. Bad, bad me. Luckily I had some flash frozen chicken that the girls could eat, so I made that for them. I actually started it before hubby got home and made enough for everyone, but he threw a fit over the chicken. He wanted me to order pizza, but I told him we had already spent all our order out budget this month. So he was mad at me... I told him fine, I'd go ahead and order it anyway, I'd just have to skip something on the grocery list. He said that if I ordered it, he wouldn't eat it anyway. He was throwing a major temper tantrum... so I didn't order him anything, and he didn't eat until almost 9pm last night. He finally decided he wanted some of the chicken, but my oldest said something didn't taste right about the third piece, so the rest went bye-bye. I wasn't about to risk anyone getting sick from the chicken. I ended up making me and hubby some hamburger patties the same way as the skillet meatloaf. The meat was bland, it was prefrozen hamburger patties that you buy at Wal-Mart. But the sauce was pretty good, I smothered mine with sauce. LOL.

Tonight, I'm not sure what we're having. But I did take out some meat, boneless pork chops. Just gotta figure out what to make with them now.
 
We had 'chicken shawarma' last night. It is a labenese dish and tastes yummy.
