What's For Dinner?
I'm one of those folks who cooks dinner nearly every night. Around 4:50 every day, I start thinking about what I want to eat for dinner. Today I realized that I have no inspiration. So, like the what's for lunch thread, I figured it would be great to have a thread where you could peruse the posts for inspiration should you fall short of your own. These don't have to be masterpieces, more variety is key, and lets keep it truthful, not what you want for dinner, but what you are actually planning.
Obviously since I haven't got a clue for tonight, I'll start by posting last night's:
Stuffed pork chops with smashed new potatoes and parsley, brussel sprouts, and pan gravy.Is it radix panax notoginseng? - splat

Grilled tuna with thyme

my wife and have kind of an ongoing joke
she cooks for the first 20 years, then I get the next 20... time is almost up.
I was a good cook when we met but was in the bachlor mode of the same 5-7 things repeatedly.
I do the BBQ-ing though and make a mean green chile burger - amoungst the other BBQed items.
But fairly often we have a pork tenderloin, marinated, breaded and baked in one of those stone plate/dutch oven things.
I like having mashed potatos and green peas with pearl onions with it.

With a 4mo old baby my wife and I have chosen to have a big lunch anywhere in the 2-4 range then just have a healthy snack for dinner so we have time to play with her, etc.
So...tonight I'm having "this plan sucks" for dinner....And the greatest ice must crumble when it's flower's time to grow.

I totally want to live at Chez MakersTelemark. Or, more accurately, I want to eat dinner at Chez MakersTelemark, I don't think I could handle living there.

Homemade whole-wheat dough pizza with sausage, tomatoes, mozzerella, little olive oil, basil and oregano.
Have dough left over so this weekend I'll whip up some spinach-ricotta sauce pizzas.
Both are damn good.

I also cook dinner almost nightly (1-2 times a week we eat out).
Tonight we eat out.
Last night was beer can chicken off the grill with roasted garlic mashers and fresh green beans.
Night before that was homemade pork tamales (I make em in huge batches of 40 or so and freeze em) with mole, yellow rice, and black beans (not the canned stuff!)
Going grouse hunting tomorrow so not gonna make dinner again til Saturday. Hopefully we will be having bacon wrapped grouse (AKA Grouse Alla Maggot, TR to follow) with potato parsnip hash and some sort of veggie.
I love to cook. Ordered a tortilla press recently as I discovered that fresh handmade tortillas are far better than the rubbery shit one gets at the store.
