What's for dinner

Some favorite eats at our house...

Quickest
chili and cornbread
red beans and rice and cornbread
soup and sandwiches (tomatoes soup & grilled cheese, tomato soup & cheese quesadillas)
chowder and sourdough bread
salad
spaghetti
Carbonara if you have bacon on hand or you can substitute ham
Pizza if you have the dough ready Trader Joe's has ready dough for $1.25 but if you think ahead your dough can be ready in 1.5 hours and cost a few cents. Besides the regular kinds of pizza BBQ chicken pizza is yummy. BBQ sauce Grilled chicken, red peppers and gouda if you like.
tortellini salad Frozen tortellini as you get to the end of cooking it throw in peas or another frozen veggie mix. Drain and allow veggies to cook then add ranch dressing. You can either eat it hot or cold.
Bagel Pizzas I like these better than English Muffins because they don't get as soggy.
Cincinnati Chili spaghetti with Chili on top. I know it sounds gross but it is good. ;)
Brats and fresh fruit or veggies and baked beans
Breakfast for dinner
Chinese Dumplings - you can get a big bag from costco. They are yummy but your house will have a unique odor. ;) They are good with a stir fry or some teriyaki.

Quick
Curry carrots potatoes trader joe's curry sauce and jasmine rice
Pork chops applesauce and green beans

Not so quick but most you can start in the crock pot then forget
