April Meals
It's April! I love this time of year!
What are you making for dinner? Tonight I think I'm making pizza, but haven't consulted my menu yet, although I better consult soon if I'm to get the dough started in my bread machine.

Re: April Meals
Thank you for starting this thread!
Sunday is homemade Pizza Night and dh is on. I have to make a plan for the week as well. It's Holy Week, so I need to check in with those fasting and get their plans first.

Re: April Meals
We had shredded chicken and corn, and leftovers. Leftover chicken will be chicken salad, not sure what I will be making the rest of the week. We have soccer practice T/Th, plus ds1 has a makeup game W, and our grocery budget is empty until Thursday so it’s make do and creative meals.

Re: April Meals
We had slow-roasted crispy chicken, steamed carrots and green beans, and oven roasted potatoes last night.
I have to make a run to the grocery store this afternoon, but I think I'm going to make chicken shawarma and have a Mediterranean platter tonight.

Re: April Meals
Subbing for ideas. I'm in a cooking rut and need some inspiration.

Re: April Meals
Last night was chili
Tonight is a one dish pasta primavera recipe I found on Instagram. We'll see if it's any good... I never know if those things will actually work out.

Re: April Meals
DS18 is leaving for a mission trip to El Salvador tonight so I wanted to make something he'd love: big steaks, baked sweet potatoes, and bacon balsalmic brussels sprouts.

Re: April Meals
I need inspiration. I’m baking today for tomorrow and really don’t want to make dinner. Pecan pie is done and mixed berry rhubarb is baking.
Last night was beef and broccoli. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: April Meals
I made rice bowls tonight. That is one of my favorite easy meals that everyone loves. This week I got a rice cooker and I think I like having it. On my glass stove top I have to babysit the rice while I cook other things, but not in the rice cooker. So rice, seasoned ground beef, and roasted veg (broccoli, onions, and diced butternut squash), topped with yum-yum sauce.

Saturday I hosted a family dinner at our home. I made leg of lamb, cheesy rice, buttered carrots. Apple pie and ice cream for dessert.
Easter dinner today hosted by my mil. She did steak, which is our favourite! Roasted asparagus, carrots, and brussel sprouts as a side. Fries. Fruit and cream cheese dip. Cupcakes and ice cream for dessert.
