What's for tea at your house tonight?

Poached Salmon with Spicy Broccoli and Salsa Rice; Green Salad ... some type of fruit for dessert

Roasted turkey breast and cauliflower for me and frank. Mac and cheese for kids probably.

Hmmm, I think I will stick to soup as I have been ill for the last few days!

I really miss my salmon salad!  Might have to get some in the next few days.

  Wow -- I'm just noticing how many of you there are who have to prepare two completely different meals for you and your other half. Is that really so common??! Is it because all of you are doing South Beach or just because you're married to finicky eaters? 

This is something I really cannot bring myself to do -- making two separate meals.  Luckily, Steve & I like pretty much anything & everything with a few minor exclusions -- usually on my side! (I'm not fond of brussel sprouts, and I don't like eating raw tomatoes -- except maybe mixed up with other stuff in a fresh salsa.) But when I'm really trying to be good -- we usually make dinner so that he has bigger portions (he's a rail) and then he'll sometimes also have a 'real' dessert, like full fat ice cream, while I refrain.

Tea tonight?  Hmmmm...have to give it some thought -- been focused on my interview today so I've not got 'round to thinking about tea yet.

I suspect I'll have leftover spaghetti & meatballs with a salad and DH will have.....um.....I dunno yet.

I noticed the same thing!!!  I'm sorry, but if I'm working all day and come home and make dinner, everyone gets what is prepared.  That's not to say that I'll make something that only I will eat, but I can't see making special/separate meals.  Diets do make it a challenge, but under normal conditions I don't think you would see me cooking separate stuff like that.  Gosh - when I was a kid, I ate what everyone else ate.  Perhaps less of it, or only certain parts, but I don't ever remember my mother cooking special stuff for me.  Maybe it's a generational thing.

You know, for the last two weeks I've been making only my meals!!!  Hmmm, I should talk to Rich about this.  Though he has been recovering from an Op and can only have soft foods!  I don't think I could do two different meals a night!

somethng i will never tire of: soup and grilled cheese!  DH and i eat this about once a week-last week while i was sick, it was more like 3 times!!!!!!

i should be having salad, and i would have planned a better meal but i was supposed to be playing softball tonight and now it's cancelled!!!!!

As we often do, we're having roasted Chicken - I've tried something new and put 3 or 4 garlic cloves and an onion inside while it's roasting- along with garlic under the skin of the breats. I can't smell it (thanks to my cold) but I'm told by hubby that it smells good! Then, I'll make some cauliflower, greens and carrots to go with it, I think!

I'm craving my future sister-in-law's eclair cake (thanks to my call to Mom for Mother's day yesterday and they were all sitting down to massive amounts of coffee and dessert! WAH!) but alas, no cool whip here 

Homemade mini-pizzas.

Tonight will be pasta with bolonese sauce...bf is cooking and as we're going to be getting home late from cricket practice, we figured it was easier to do something quick!

tonight it's salmon, salad and veg.  need to rustle up a recipie to use with the salmon.
