Frito pie last night using Wolf brand hot chile, no beans.

[Dee]

Love those frito pies. Have you ever stuck a match to a frito? Try it, you'll be surprised.  Fritos are listed in some survival manuals as good for starting fires in wet, or windy weather

[Mule 11]

You guys got me started on that frito pie thing. It’s good... that tuna salad of Bobs Im gonna give a try. I bet it’s spicy.

Last night was baked boneless, skinless chicken thighs covered with sliced bell peppers and onions.

No, but I have read where they are good fire starters and I can see why. First Frito pie I ever encountered was at a drive-in movie with my then girlfriend during high school. That is something both of you eat when on a date. Lots of onions and teenagers didn't go to the drive-in to really watch the movie even back in what was almost dinosaur days.

Some spaghettaroni I made the
other day. I'd bought a case of
tomato soup and split it with a
young relative that likes it.
His mom didn't like that the
" best by. . ." date was approaching
and sent some back,  so I used
some of the extra cans to make
sauce.
Probably make a pan of cornbread
to go with it

I’m a sauce guy. You would have to be starving me before I’d consider using tomato soup for an ingredient. If I were to do so. I’d be seriously reducing it...

[Ranger99]

Well it's sure not any kind of
premium sauce, but it's better
than throwing it out or letting it
spoil from age. I don't usually
eat tomato soup without a grilled
cheese sandwich. That's about the
extent of how I'll use it.
Since I had the cans and the noodles
and onions, spices, etc. I figured I
didn't have anything to lose.
It's not bad and decent enough to
look forward to eating it

I get it. I was raised the same way and absolutely hate waste.

[Bob Riebe]

I have zero love for canned tomato soup but I have/do eat it.
Not bad with buttered toast and crackers.

I keep cans years, a LOT , past use by date; my one cousin is a paranoid - use by - dork.

[Dee]

Spaghetti with ground beef and Ragu sauce.

[Lloyd Smale]

ground venison bacon burgers with fried potato onion and peppers.

[Mule 11]

Bought a couple pork shoulders at 1.19 a #. Took the bones and some fatty meat and simmered a bit and made soup with the broth, added tomatoes, potatoes, onion, green beans, celery, corn, # of ground beef, bullion and soy sauce. So a couple bowls plus 2 grilled cheese sangwiches.

[oldandslow]

Tacos tonight courtesy of our daughter and son-in-law.

[Bob Riebe]

Tacos here also.

[oldandslow]

Last night's was a gringo burrito. Left over crock pot BBQ pulled pork in a flour tortillo and lightly toasted in a skillet after assembly. Having the wife feeling well enough to get back into the kitchen is really nice. My cooking skills consist of opening cans and frozen dinners.

[Dee]

Last night was a surprise birthday party for someone who had never had a birthday party. Southern fried catfish, dirty French fries, red beans, cornbread, coleslaw, and sweet tea. Dos Eques if you're so inclined.
It was a good night in my BILs barn.

This was so good I made another big pot except no taters and chicken broth instead of pork. My son is eating a little, so 1 more besides me eating it

  Being as I am alone now, like many others living alone, I am not inclined to spend much time fussing over a meal.
  When I toss together a meal, more often than not..I am using the microwave.  Often it is some kind of TV dinner, but i may also nuke an russet potato.  I just take the raw potato, slice it lengthwise several times, going nearly to the bottom (1/4" slices)..put a bit of margarine between each slice and nuke for 5 min.
  Do I want some meat?  Maybe..maybe not..but if I do, just I nuke a quality hot dog, a smoked or Polish sausage.
  If I craved meat as some do, I would probably cook up 3-4 pounds of meat, then freeze in single serves..then use them one at a time.
  Vegies come in a salad or part of a bag of frozen veggies..heated up and some kind of dressing added..maybe with Cajun seasonings.  Vegetable juice helps also.

  I get the full course meals too, since I am often invited to my son's house next door for a regular meal..

  Then too, on Tuesdays, we have an evening Bible study which is accompanied by a dinner, brought in by we members.

  It is then that the ladies outdo themselves...getting this old man to  accept some of their dishes to take home...  I usually get enough to make a couple meals, and delicious ones at that !.

   Sometimes.. instead of a more complete meal, I just whip up a package of Ramen soup, and that does it..

[phalanx]

Good healthy meals here. As for frozen dinners, Marie Callender’s are the best. Banquet is pretty good also, depending on what you get.

[oldandslow]

It was a spamwich last night. Microwaved hot and served with lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles.

[Lloyd Smale]

alfredo tonight Have to make it two ways. The wife wont eat shrimp so its chicken alfredo in one pot and shrimp in the other.

[oldandslow]

Tonight's was a medium blizzard m Dairy Queen. There are no Dairy Queens anywhere close to me anymore so when I happen to be where there is one I grab a blizzard if is close to mealtime and I happened to be close this afternoon.

[Lloyd Smale]

I love me a heath bar blizzard but thankfully the dq in our town closes for the winter or id be another 30lbs heavier. But in the summer my wife brings me home a blizzard every friday night or she probably wouldnt be let in the house.
