Charla! Tomorrow is my dd's birthday too and we're celebrating in very similar fashion! Steaks on the grill are her absolute fave. :heart

My MIL requested chicken/corn/tomato pitas for her last night here (this week's theme has been "things my super-picky FIL won't eat" :giggle):

Yum...that looks good! Did you make your own pitas? If so, do you have a recipe?

Re: April Dinners
 

The pitas are from Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day - super easy and delicious! Instructions in the link in that pin I think.

Re: April Dinners
 

for DH me and Cecilia

gordan smart choice fish fillets (which we will pretend is healthy)
roasted beets
velvetta Mac N cheese (for DH and DD)
salad
fresh pineapple

Margaret can't have the fish or Mac N cheese so I'm making her a PB and honey sandwich and allowing her the option of finishing off the corn chips I bought a few days ago. She loves beets salad and pineapple though.

Re: April Dinners

Re: April Dinners
 

I tried a new recipe for dinner tonight. Chili cornbread bake.

Basically it's cornbread baked as the bottom layer. Then add the chili and top with cheese and bake again.

It was meh. I won't make it again like this. We love cornbread and we love chili but combined with the cornbread on bottom it made for mostly just mushy cornbread. So next time I'd keep the two separate. Or maybe try with the cornbread on top if I do a casserole type thing...

Re: April Dinners
 

We had spicy Honey chicken, roasted green beans, salid and a boxed Mac and cheese that was dairy, gluten and soy free.

I made this really good Spanish mac and cheese, you make your white sauce mac like normal but when you add the cheese also add in a pound of chorizo fresco (soft Mexican cooking chorizo). Top with crumbs mixed with about 1/2c more grated cheese and bake. It was super good. I overcooked my asparagus though because my children took forever to come home :lol.

Re: April Dinners
 

Roast leg of lamb at our house tonight, if I can pace myself with the prep throughout the day. Want to be sure and get that done before baby comes, and then fill our freezer with the leftover lamb + broth for shepherd's pie the rest of the year. Rosemary roasted potatoes/onions and probably green beans with it. Or maybe salads. Need to keep it simple. I've learned my lesson to start it at 3:00 just in case...last year we were eating dinner at 8PM because it took so much longer than the recipe said. OY!

Burgers, sweet potato fries, regular fries, baked beans.
