I like to hear what everyone is doing for dinner...

 

Something earlier in this thread got me thinking, it is a little off topic, so I am not posting it here.

 

I am going to start a ... " We are what we eat " thread and see how it goes. I think we could

 

use a thread about healthy ways of eating.

Large pasta shells stuffed with a mixture of ricotta cheese, spinach and mushrooms. Topped with a cream sauce and seasoned bread crumbs and baked. So yum, but messy and time consuming to make so we don't have it often.

Will have mixed green salad and italian bread on the side :)

Tonight I'm making a batch of Italian meat balls, a batch of marinara sauce, and lasagna.

 

I'll be following the recipes I posted in the Comfort Foods thread.

Last night, we had B.L.T's.  I, of course, just had a B.L., I don't like raw tomatoes.  Tonight, St. Louis style ribs charred on the grill, then slow cooked in the oven for a few hours, corn on the cob and something else, I am not sure yet.

I ran out of eggs so no lasagna last night but the sauce and meatballs came out magnifico!

 

And not heartburn LOL

I could live with that and some nice bread to dip in the sauce.  There is always the meatball sandwich...

I'm not a big fan of lasagna. I don't know why... maybe it's because my mom used to make it a lot for my little brother?

 

But the meatballs and sauce is making me salivate! Lol.

Tonight, I'm cooking 3 slabs of St. Louis ribs like Colleen, but I slow cook mine in the oven first then barbecue them last.

 

OK Colleen, it's rib cook off time, we'll have to see who's ribs the members like best LOL

I want to make your famous mexican bean soup!  Recipe, please?

 

1 lbs Pinto Beans

1/2 lbs Bacon

1 green Pepper diced

2 med Onions diced

1 Jalapeno diced with a few seeds (you can add more later)

2 garlic gloves minced

1 cup cilantro chopped

6 cups low sodium broth (I use beef or make my own with beef cubes)

 

Rinse Beans, cover in water and bring to a boil. Turn off heat and lets soak over night.

Fry Bacon in skillet and cool it on paper. KEEP the Bacon grease!

Add chopped peppers, onions, garlic and cilantro to the Bacon grease and saute!

 

Add all ingredients to be beans and lets simmer until beans are soft!

Add more water if needed and beef cubes to taste!

Salt and Pepper to taste!

 

It's a recipe from a Mexican Restaurant. They served a small cup of their soup before each meal. The owner past away and the sold the restaurant. I begged the chef for the recipe and he gave it to me after numerous Tequilas :-)
