Chicken, rice, and green beans with Cajun seasonings

2sunshines · 09-04-2015, 04:01 PM

no

necessary. Easy convenient meals absolutely have their place. I find that I don't do much cooking on the rare occasions that dh does not join us for dinner.

What is your recipe for zucchini pizza? Is it similar to zucchini boats or something entirely different?

Entirely different. 3-ish cups of shredded zucchini, a cup of whole wheat flour, a couple of eggs, some salt and whatever spices you want (garlic powder, Ital seasoning, etc - or just salt is OK too). Spread out on a WELL-CORNMEALED stone (or maybe a silpat? haven't ever tried that) and bake at 450 for 20 min.

Take out of the oven and top with (in this order) mozzarella, mushrooms if desired (we always skip those), sliced green onions, oregano, basil, sliced tomatoes, and garlic powder. Bake at 350 for 20-ish minutes.

You really have to do something or it is GLUED to the stone. Still delicious, just a pain that way. If I use plenty of cornmeal it comes off with minimal fighting.

ah yes, now that you repeat the recipe, I am confident that this is not the first time you've given it to me.

Thank you for typing it all out for me again.

And I apologize in advance if I ask you again in future months.

I may try this recipe.

I think the kids would like it...

How do you shred your zucchini? Do you need to dewater it at all?

DH is working tonight so I'm not totally sure what we'll have.

maybe baked potatoes with salsa, bacon, and cheese on top.

We had this for dinner last night:

California Chicken Flatbread with Chipotle Ranch Sauce
http://lecremedelacrumb.com/2015/05/...nch-sauce.html

And our Life Group was here after dinner last night for our study, so I made this dessert with DD13 yesterday:

Chocolate Raspberry Mousse Cake
http://www.sugarhero.com/chocolate-r...y-mousse-cake/
It was beautiful and yummy, but for the amount of work that went into it, it probably didn't taste as amazing and I had hoped. Yummy, but not amazing.

I just use a box grater. And I don't bother to de-water it.

I think I am going to make it tonight - I will try to take some pics.

Oh that would be great!

milkmommy · 09-05-2015, 04:38 PM

beef stir fry with basically some odds and ends veggies. A yellow pepper a few baby carrots chopped a bit of some green onion and a sweet onion like a handful of green beans...

I need to figure out how to separate the packages of frozen veggies I need for family meals from what DH grabs to make him self stuff on the days he is home.. I was kinda miffed when some things I'd planned for this meal wasn't around. DH didn't do anything wrong though I just need to make sure I have what we need put aside.

Maybe some freezer bags? Like the big ones what I have in that don't touch?

Chicken noodle soup with dumplings, Greek salad,

Leftovers tomorrow!

LilacPhoenix · 09-06-2015, 05:24 AM

Yesterday was chicken butter chive potatoes.

I have spaghetti in the crockpot for after church today - Ragu, shrimp, mushrooms, red/yellow/green bell peppers, and seasonings. I hope it comes out good! I'll make pasta when we get home.

2sunshines · 09-06-2015, 09:52 AM

We are having a family cook out and pool party today to celebrate the last weekend summer!

Grilled chicken quarters, hot dogs, watermelon, cantaloupe, grapes, salad, potatoes, spaghetti squash.

Plus whatever else people bring to the party...

Can't believe school starts in two days!

I can't believe your school hasn't started yet! We've been in session for a month!

I made Thai chopped chicken salad for our church potluck today at lunch. For supper, we're having the baked spaghetti I made for a new mom yesterday. (In other words, I was in the kitchen allllll day yesterday

) I can't remember the last time I had baked spaghetti...I'm really looking forward to it.

Do you have a recipe to share for the baked spaghetti?
