subbing for ideas--- as it gets hot, dh hates when the "house gets heated up" due to lots of oven usage........which can be a challenge. I mean, even my crockpot heats the house up some

Yesterday was ground beef with buttermilk gravy over diced potatoes

Today was spaghetti - doctored Ragu, ground beef, quinoa, black olives, and parmesan cheese. I was going to make salad with it but I haven't been to the store to get lettuce

Beef nachos and watermelon. It's summer and I'm pregnant. I'm giving myself a pass. :P

Oh my goodness, you guys, grilled peaches with brown sugar are amazing!!!

I think we just might have grilled peaches all summer.

Laurlor · 07-07-2014, 11:50 AM

We've been making them a lot too! Sometimes I add a small scoop of vanilla ice cream on top...YUMMY!

Hot dogs

with homemade chili

greengirl19 · 07-08-2014, 08:36 AM

Summer veggie curry from the Moosewood cookbook, coconut rice, and brats on the grill (to you know, supplement the veg. meal)

Carini · 07-08-2014, 09:04 AM

I'm gonna cheat and list my lunch because it's fabulous.

Croissant with tuna salad, fresh fruit salad and caprese salad with balsamic reduction. Oh...and BBQ chips and a mini coke. Best part...eating alone while dh takes dd to the park!!

2TMama · 07-08-2014, 01:29 PM

"Fried" rice (really just rice cooked in rice cooker w/ steamed veggies added in

)
Chicken....not sure if we'll make general tso's or sweet/sour (much more messy & involved).

Beth1231 · 07-08-2014, 04:44 PM

Lamb chops last night

which was the result of a July 4th sale.
Pizza tonight

Greek pasta salad is great for hot summer nights,btw

mommychem · 07-08-2014, 10:33 PM

Tacos. A big salad for me (romaine lettuce, apples, raisins, walnuts)

greengirl19 · 07-09-2014, 06:14 AM

it was supposed to be fajitas, but I forgot and already used the bell peppers. So beef and broccoli. That goes with leftover coconut rice, right?

Summer meals are the hardest for me.

Chipotle

Last night was cooking-together-as-a-family night and we made lasagna, tossed salad, and fruit salad.

Tonight we are going to try Cynthia's (Maybe Gracie) idea of a movie night with the Lego movie, serving hotdogs, popcorn, rootbeer, and ice cream.
