Sunday dinner - What are you serving?

I'm making Chicken Cacciatore

I'm serving it with spaghetti squash and I'm removing the skin from the chicken before cooking to cut down on the fat.

Well we decided on Roti with some chicken and a cottage cheese curry dip and a salad. I have to go make the dough soon...:)

I am making Chicken Stir Fry.  I put the recipe in, but had to guess on most of the measurements because I usually do not measure.  I will adjust the recipe once I make it to the correct measurements.  I am close with what I put in though.

Whatever the stuff I threw into the crockpot turns out to be....

Which means yes, I'm at it again. One onion, two yellow squash, one small zucchini, a can of whole tomatoes, a small can of tomato sauce, a small can of tomato paste, six or so frozen chicken breast tenderloins, basil, oregano, a couple of bay leaves, a little crazy mixed-up salt, a little crazy mixed-up pepper, and a little cayenne pepper for a kick. And a little water, mainly because I wanted to get more of the tomato paste out of the can. Crockpot is set on high.

I have a gift certificate for Borders, and WILL get a crockpot cookbook with it, I swear!

Oh, maybe I should add some garlic...

Tofu pad thai!

we had roasted pork tenderloin with a fruit chutney and roasted veggies.  chutney makes the world a better place hahaha. 

Finished off Sunday's dinner leftovers last night. This was a very satisfying meal. Recipe here: http://www.calorie-count.com/recipe/29531.htm l

Twenty minutes was perfect for the pasta. This is definitely a do-again!

My leftover cacciatore turned into a chicken with rice casserole, now in the freezer for a nice fast meal sometime!

Tip - to freeze a casserole that you will want to bake - line the casserole dish with foil and fill with the ingredients.  Freeze solid.  Remove the dish and tightly wrap the contents in foil and put it into a labeled freezer bag.  When you're ready to bake it, put the still frozen, foil wrapped package back into the same casserole dish.  I like to thaw before baking, but if you use Corning Ware or another cold and heat proof dish, you don't have to.

Mmmmmm, we're all very full and satisfied! clairelaine, I must thank you once again for your chicken in a crockpot idea: one whole chicken, one cut-up onion, Emeril's Essence, cook! We had it with asparagus with mustard vinaigrette, and rosemary-parmesan biscuits. Yum!

We are having Vegetable Lasagna

It's filled with tasty zucchini, fresh mushrooms, onions, light ricotta cheese and also shredded parmesan cheese with shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese. mmmmmm (i'd call it mostly a cheese and vegetable lasagna lol)

It only takes 30 minutes to prepare and 35 minutes to bake, so it's a good hour.. and five minutes lol.

It's 251 calories per serving wich is not bad since around supper time eating a big diner isn't the right thing to do but hey once in a while it's alright!

So that's my supper for sunday! can't wait

If you would like the recipe i'd be glad to give it to you =)

i had a fresh venison burger with salad and a pickle. the meat was wild game shot down in virginina, it was so lean and very good. a good cut of meat.

It's my birthday!  I made lentil curry with kale, carrots, tomatoes and brown rice.  For dessert I made the pumpkin-tofu pie that somebody posted up here ... can't wait to see how it turned out!

I got lazy and didnt cook. I had a microwave meal (a big diet name brand, of course) of garlic chicken and almond green beans (240 cal) and for dessert (another diet name brand- a different one- thought I should give them equal time) a piece of chocolate cake (220 cals- a little excessive but I only ate one- which normally I would have eaten both in the package and been looking for more). I drank a big glass of water with my meal and I feel full.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY lysistrata!!

King crap legs were on sale at the supermarket....made up a mess of them, had it with cocktail sauce.......and fresh salad.  Discovered Wish-bone french Juest 2 Good Delxe french dressing http://www.calorie-count.com/calories/item/87 131.html

So we all cracked and picked our way thru crab....and I have enough to make a low-fat crab salad, supplemented with shrimp!

LOL...gridiorongoose, I think you've got a typo you might want to fix...thanks for the great laugh!

I made a miso soup with tofu, shiitake mushrooms and wakame (sea vegetable), served with brown rice with fish and nori flakes (toasted seaweed) and tea.  I adore Japanese food, and this really hit the spot!  Having leftovers for lunch today.

A nice rosemary and garlic paste-filled pork roast with roasted carrots and roasted potato slices. I'm a gravy guy, so there was definitely a little homemade gravy. I served it with a bottle of 2006 beaujolais nouveau that I found hanging around. Not awful.

OOPS!!!......that's a BAD typo......I don't think anybody would want that for dinner, sunday or not!

I.m making garlic stuffed roast beef...lean top round that is slit all over and garlic slivers inserted, then salt w/pepper and a thin spray of balsamic vinegar...let it sit overnight before roasting.

I set the oven for 425 degrees. When at temperature I put in the roast and after 15 minutes turn the heat down to 325...for a 3.5 to 4 pound raost it take a total of about 60 minutes and comes out crusty, garlicy and with plenty of pan drippings for au jus.

I serve it with small garlic red potatoes and asparagus or green beans and little rolls.

It is really not a fat meal if you eat about 4-6 ounces because the top round is so very lean.
