What's for Dinner? Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Report Post to a Moderator        IP Information Go to the top of this page

This is an ongoing thread on another board that I belong to and since we have an international audience here, I thought it would be interesting to see what everyone cooks, bakes, or orders out. Recipes can be exchanged.

Everyone bonds over food,right.

And do you call it dinner? Supper? Or something else.

sometimes my "late" meal is breakfast since I work at night. Although springie can vow that it's not always breakfast food... (was chatting with her while I ate it)

I call the meal dinner, but when use that word with my students I get the strangest looks. Silly

Tonight I plan on having steak, done on the BBQ, and salad for dinner. I may end up bringing home roast chicken, depending on how long my staff meeting goes on.

Hey CD...we are thinking alike!!

I just ran to the grocery store on my lunch hour and I picked up some steak kabobs from the butcher that I plan on grillling. I also picked up a bag of lettuce too!!

I probably won't steamed this tonight, but I also picked up the hugest artichoke that I've ever seen.

oh...and I do the roasted chickens alot too. It's nice to have for dinner and then make a sandwich or taco's from the leftovers the next night.

Artichokes have been on sale with me just recently. I have looked at them and wondered what to do with them. /How to cook and eat them./ So, you steam them do you? Then what?

Artichokes are one of my most favorite foods!

First, I snipe the tops off of all the leaves and then I put them in a deep pot of boiling water and put a lid on it. Make sure the water covers the artichoke completely. Depending on the size, I usually boil them for about 45 minutes. Meanwhile I microwave a 1/2 stick of butter with some garlic for dipping.

Once artichokes are done they are very soft. You break off the leaves dip in butter and skim them between your teeth to get the delicate 'meat' off of them.

SOOOOO GOOOD!!

Ooh ... I am lazy considering I am recovering from a girl's night out (baby free, husband free!!) ... So I will try to convince Flash to let us do takeout tonight.

I have a hankering for Vietnamese food.

Chances are We'll end up doing Hungry Man TV dinners ...

Usually we eat well, but every once in a while I'm just too freaking lazy and too freaking tired to worry about such trivial shit as dishes ...

Oh, and I call it "Tea"

"Dinner" is lunch

and Breakfast is "Brekkie"

And gosh darn I would kill for a damn Petrol Station nuked meat pie!

Brekkie, I like that. Depends on what I have but if it's not full blown dinner, then it's lunch and tea but if I am having full blown meal, eg roast beef, then it's dinner, whether it's at lunch time or tea time.

So...what is usually eaten at 'Tea'? Is that a lighter meal? Is the 'Tea' the focus?

In Mexican culture, the afternoon meal is the biggest one of the day. Followed by an afternoon siesta. Sleep3

They have siesta's in Spain as I found out as I was trying to get a roll of film developed in Ibiza.

To mean, Tea is just a lighter meal for example cheese and biscuits with pork pie or scotch egg or, just pie and chips from the chippy (Fish and Chip shop)

Lots of brits go to Ibiza. Lots of germans too....

I think I've been to Ibiza about 6 times in the last 10 years.

so many foods above sound really good.


Lola thanks for the imput on artichokes, I've often wondered myself how to prepare and eat them...

Are they kinda bland without the garlic butter sauce? Some here will not eat anything with spices..

Remind me to ask the board fot food help!

What is Nandos?

Last night's dinner was ruined. I put the steak kabobs on the grill and forgot about them. I like a good medium rare steak and these were over done...bleh!!

No dinner for me tonight as I go from one job to the next. Frown

Its a Portuguese....restaurant I guess you would call it that.

Basically everything on the menu is chicken and you place an order at the bar and then the food is brought to you but we looooooooove nandos, the peri peri sauce is lovely even if we are cowards and go for the lemon spice level.

There is lemon, medium, spicy and extreme peri peri sauce. I tried medium once and I couldn't taste the chicken Big Grin

See...I don't even know what Porteguese food consists of...but it sounds good!! I'm a foodie and will try anything new. But, I don't even think that there is a Porteguese restaurant anywhere around here. I'd probably have to go to a bigger city that is nearby, like Chicago.
