The What's For Dinner Tonight Chat

Peanut butter and honey on a rice cake with steamed carrots.

I fell asleep on the couch on accident (so didn't plan it) and forgot to lay some meat out. I did remember to run the dishwasher though.

That would just be a little snack for me - my stomach seems to be a bottomless hole!

If i eat too much my GERD acts up bad, if i eat too little it does the same. I've found some balance at least. I will admit i've eaten very little today. I've been slowly trying to increase what i eat, but yeah.... its been hard.

I might munch on something else, but i doubt it.

Pot roast with butternut squash, baby greens with homemade ranch dressing, and cold fried apples.

Yes, I make pot roast about once a week. I have a condition.

[shadowicewolf]

don't feel bad, thats my normal go to meal o.o though in soup form...

[Adalaide]

I had pot roast tonight too. I had a roast (not pot roast though ) two nights ago. If it is a condition I have it pretty bad. I hope there is no cure and I am okay with it worsening over time. I had a baked potato and carrots with mine. Slathered that tater with fresh butter from raw milk. Slathered everything else in copious amounts of gravy.

Following this with a fat old slice of chocolate cake with chocolate mint icing in a bit. No nuts, beans, regular dairy, whole eggs? No problem!

Chicken and rice soup for dinner.

[Persei V.]

I'll try to make a chinese beef thingy with chopped beef, onions, gluten-free soy sauce (for realz), black pepper, garlic and carrots.

Grain free diet is working very well insofar, and I still got to eat tons of yummy stuff, and I go throughout the day with my stomach flat as a ruler. The constipation has not yet resolved completely, but I will wait and see.

[sora]

Beef meatballs with gravy, sweet potaoes, broccoli and beets and pickles.

[shadowicewolf]

i'm planning on adding cabbage and carrots to it (i do eat other veggies btw, broccoli, squash, califlower, ect, but i adore this combo and its kinda cheap eats).

I'm proud of myself. By 3:30 i had the meat cut up, browned, and the stalk going. Yay! So i'll be able to eat dinner at a decent time.

[IrishHeart]

Lemony garlic & thyme baked chicken thighs

Roasted butternut squash

Sauteed chard

Grapes and walnuts

Garlic butter chicken, cheesy rice and peas for dinner tonight.

[Adalaide]

Leftovers. Because pot roast and gravy never gets old. I also need something quick and easy, tonight is my cheese making class, so excited!

[shadowicewolf]

....cheese making class?

[Adalaide]

I'm drinking raw milk because it isn't contaminated with iodine. Other than that I am dairy free. I already know how to make my own butter thanks to being a farm girl but I'm cheese free until I learn to make some. Lucky me the store I buy my milk at is having a cheese making class tonight. I'm such a cheese addict. I've always suspected I have a dairy issue because it makes me gassy, but this raw milk doesn't. Raw milk also contains lactase, which processed milk doesn't. So I guess there is my answer, I am lactose intolerant. I suppose I'll have to stick with raw milk for life. Oh woe is me.

I'm clarifying my statement. I don't mean to say all raw milk or anything like that. I simply mean the raw milk that I am able to buy isn't contaminated with iodine. I don't want someone to wander along, read this and think gee, raw milk is iodine free and go buy some that isn't. It simply isn't true of all raw milk.

I'm wondering, Addy, where in the milk-producing process is iodine added?

Iodine is not an issue for me so I never had to research it, am now very

curious.

[shadowicewolf]

I believe they clean the udders with it.

At any rate, leftovers for dinner.

[Adalaide]

A betadine wash is generally used to clean the cows. It doesn't hurt anything to just leave it on them, and so that is what happens. The diary I use washes the cows twice to get it off of them. I was shocked that this was something I didn't know before having grown up in a close knit farming community in PA. Of course, many there simply have very small farms and sell raw milk also so maybe they don't do it.

Chicken salads tonight. I'm thinking I may make my husband grab me a can of pumpkin on his way home and we'll make some pumpkin milkshakes. Not exactly first measurable snow fare, but its what I planned without checking weather reports.

[Persei V.]

Moar beef -- I swear it's the last time -- with tomato sauce and boiled white potatoes. Also the last dish with potatoes of the week.

[sora]

A green salad with strawberries to start and spare ribs with sauteed zucchini and garlic, Steamed potatoes for the others in the house.

[jerseyangel]

I'm getting a cold, so chicken corn soup

[Adalaide]

Testing my tyramine limits a little at a time. So tonight, chili! Perfect snowy weather dinner. Crossing my fingers for beans.

[shadowicewolf]

acorn squash is planned for dinner... so yay!
