Saturday night I made a chicken stir fry. Came out pretty darn good. Tonight it looks like Salmon for the misses, and I’ll have BBQ ribs from the grill. Some corn and perhaps Tater salad. Though it does not feel like summer quite yet. I feel like grilling. It’s 24 degrees fahrenheit right now and it snowed a bit yesterday. ---

> [@ivylass](#): > > **gabriela** …she cooks AND cuts up dead people. Wow. Yes, but Dr. Hannibal Letcher does this at the same time. Yesterday I made a German baked-apple-and-potato dish (Himmelunderde (sp?) which translates into “Heave and Earth”). And some broccoli with cheese sauce on it. Later, I had some popcorn. ---

The usual: a couple eggs scrambled (spiced with salt, pepper, chili powder and a splash of gin), a bowl of vegetables and a protein/fiber shake. ---

Simple night. Burgers with tater tots and sliced cucumbers and carrots. Jello pudding pops for dessert. ---

Blew out last night with dinner at a pancake house, so tonight I’m making some leek and chickpea soup. It’s got bacon and garlic as well, and it just like a very rich pea and ham soup. Yuuuuum. ---

I am having what I usually have about 4 nights a week: Either a Banquet Lasagna Meal, with a Tablespoon of hot peppers, and parmesan cheese,with well buttered toast, 1 large pickle. OR, 1 Don Pablo Sour Cream Chicken Dinner, with bag of Fritos and ! large pickle. Finished off with two chocolate covered graham crackers and milk. ---

> [@silenus](#): > > A simple meal tonight: burgers on the grill for the first time this season. The kittens came over to see what I was doing, and Smokey climbed up in my chair and supervised the whole process. Washed them down with either Grape or Orange Nehi. The summer has officially started! Washing kittens off a chair with soda sounds awfully sticky. Squirt a little water on 'em next time. Last night we were too tired to cook, so we got some Subway sandwiches. Tonight, we’re having turkey quesadillas using turkey that’s been taking up freezer space since Thanksgiving. We nibbled on some of the turkey yesterday, and none of us has died yet, so I guess it’s okay. ---

My best recent dinner was Sunday: I went to a local park with my best friends and their 4-year-old, and after riding the train and playing mini-golf we had a picnic dinner of turkey sandwiches, chips, cheddar cheese, baby carrots & ranch dressing, and watermelon. Good food, good weather, good company! 🙂 Tonight will probably be frozen pizza (DiGiorno pepperoni), with peanut M&M’s for dessert. ---

Tonight we feast! Hot dogs, nachos, beer, baseball. Our local Single A team has waitress service for the seats behind home plate. No standing in line for a beer! Go, Quakes! I love summer. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-for-dinner-tonight/358579.md?page=2)
