What should I cook for supper tonight?

Question

Tired of making the same old things every week. Something relatively simple with no hamburger meat or pasta.

Answer 1

Grilled Cheese?

Butter both ends, add cheese to middle and either cook in an oven until bread turns gold, or fry on a pan.

Make something like pot roast, taters, onions, carrots.

Brisket with corn on the cob and cornbread.

Answer 8

Simple Chicken Saute Ingredients

2 Chicken breast halves,  2 tb Fresh lemon juice  

1 tb Olive oil  1 tb Soft margarine  

1 1/2 tb Green onions, chopped  2 ts Fresh parsley, chopped  

4 Mushrooms, chopped  

Instructions for Simple Chicken Saute

Rinse the chicken, remove all visible fat, dry throughly. Flatten slightly with the heel of your hand to attain uniform thickness for even cooking. Heat the olive oil in a 10" non-stick skillet. Saute the chicken for 3 minutes each side, or until just firm to the touch. Remove chicken from pan and keep warm. Using the same skillet, saute the green onions until translucent. Add mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and boil til most of the liquid has evaporated. Stir in the soft margarine. Spoon this mixture over the chicken and sprinkle parsley on top.

This makes the sauce a bit thin, but it really does bring down the fat content, eliminates the saturated fat altogether, and tastes better too

Answer 9

Omlette. They're pretty simple AND you can add whatever filling you like. They go well with salad or even just with fries.

Answer 10

We're having ribs (I don't know how to cook ribs LOL)

with this side dish

Mashed Potato Casserole

1 teaspoon salt

3 cups instant mashed potato flakes

2 tablespoons margarine

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease one 2 1/2 quart casserole dish. Blend together milk, cream cheese, onion dip and eggs. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine water, margarine and salt. Bring to a boil and add instant potato mix; mix well. Add cream cheese mixture, mix well and pour into prepared dish. Dot the top with margarine and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 45 minutes.  

Answer 11

Bake some country style pork ribs! Boil some corn on the cob, make potato salad... There are some REALLY good recipes for potato salad on Good Morning America's website from when Emeril had a contest not too long ago. I made the winner's recipe and the runner up, and they were both delicious.
