Default Re: What's for dinner in April?

DH surprised me by making fajitas for dinner last night. This is a big step for him as he greatly dislikes veggies but recently discovered he likes the taste they leave behind when sautéed. He went to to store and even bought veggies.
He still didn't eat any of the veggies, but he did buy AND cooked with them.

We got out the grill!!!
Burgers. Chicken breast. Cabbage and bacon.
So what if it's 30 degrees and raining?? That's what the garage is for. Pshaw.

Also adding that balsamic chicken with roasted veggies recipe to my bookmarks to do one day. Looks super good.

I made hearty beef and mushroom soup tonight for the first time from this recipe: http://meatified.com/beef-and-mushroom-soup/

It was AH-mazing. SO super delicious. I used my homemade beef broth. Definitely tops my list of all time favourite soups/stews.

Really yummy chicken burgers! We had them Tuesday and everyone likes them so much we had round two today... Pounded and marinated the chicken in herbs and grilled, topped with pickled onions, pesto/Greek yogurt spread and all the usual fixings

I have no idea. Probably leftover vegan chili or hummus and carrots. I don't feel like cooking.
