I WAS PRETTY TIRED AT DINNER BUT MANAGED TO PULL OFF A MEAL THAT EVERYONE WAS HAPPY WITH...
HAMBURGERS, FRIES, AND JELLO ~ FOR THE KIDS..
BEEF TENDERLOIN STEAKS, STEAMED BROCCOLI, AND FRIES~ FOR SCOTT AND I.
FOR THE KIDS, I GOT THEIR DINNER DONE FIRST..ITS EASIER THAT WAY SOME NIGHTS WHEN I AM WANTING A QUITE CALM DINNER...I COOKED SOME CHEESE BURGERS ON THE INDOOR GRILL, BAKED SOME FRIES, AND SERVED IT UP WITH SOME JELLO..AND SERVED IT WITH MILK. I KNOW THIS DOESNT LOOK SO HEALTHY, BUT THE BEEF WAS ORGANIC, NATURAL CHEESE WITHOUT FILLERS, THE FRIES BAKED NOT FRIED AND THE JELLO HAS FRUIT AND THE MILK WAS WHOLE MILK..SO IT WAS PRETTY HEALTHY FOR THEM. AND IT WAS PRETTY FAST TO GET DONE..ABOUT 25 MINUTES..
ALSO..I DO HAVE TO MENTION THAT I LOVE THESE PLATES FOR THE KIDS..PERSONALLY DON'T LIKE PAPER PLATES WITH DINNER BUT THEY DON'T MIND! I CAN LIVE WITH THEM SOMETIMES BREAKFAST AND DINNER I PREFER ON REAL PLATES! THIS ARE PRETTY HANDY THOUGH!
FOR SCOTT AD I, I COOKED SOME BEEF TENDERLOIN STEAKS..I MARINATED THEM IN JACK DANIELS STEAK MARINADE FOR ABOUT 30 MIN BEFORE COOKING THEM.
I STEAMED SOME BROCCOLI ....ONE OF MY FAVORITES!
FOR SCOTT I AM GIVING HIM SOME OF THE LEFT OVER FRIES WITH HIS STEAK..
I JUST WENT WITH THE BROCCOLI AND STEAK AND SCOTT HAD FRIES WITH HIS..BY THE TIME THIS PICTURE WAS TAKEN I HAD ALREADY BEEN IN MY BROCCOLI...MY PLATE LOOKS HORRIBLE! SORRY! I COULDN'T JUST HAVE ONE BITE!
SORRY THIS POST IS SO LATE. I HAVE NEVER FIGURED OUT A SPEEDY WAY TO GET THESE KIND OF POST UP...DINNER FOR US IS ALWAYS LATER IN THE EVENING AND ITS NIGHT BEFORE I GET THEM POSTED. BUT THAT WORKS OUT TOO BECAUSE IF THERE IS EVER A MENU OR ITEM YOU WANT TO MAKE, YOU CAN DO IT THE NEXT DAY...GIVING YOU THE TIME TO SHOP FOR WHATEVER YOU NEED.
THESE MEALS LATELY HAVE NOT BEEN TO FANCY..JUST SIMPLE FOOD. EASY FOOD. AND ITS BASICALLY OUR MENU..WITH THE KIDS HERE, THEY SEEM TO WANT MORE " KID FOOD" THAN WHAT SCOTT AND I WANT.. SO THAT MEANS I COOK 2 MEALS A LOT OF TIMES. I WOULD RATHER BE SPENDING TIME WITH THEM THAN IN THE KITCHEN..SO THE MEALS I WILL BE SHOWING FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS WILL BE SIMPLE FOR THE MOST PART.
