Last Night’s Dinner: 4-20-23

[Activity2004]

This was last night’s dinner. We had red potatoes, salad with dressing, bac’n pieces, cheese crisps, salmon and Greek yogurt. The total carbs. were 62. Everything was really delicious and it’s one of my favorite Thursday night meals each week.

Tonight, we will have Vegetarian Chili and Greek yogurt. What are you having tonight?

Yum! Salmon is one of favorites! How do you prepare yours? I almost hate to say what my supper was tonight….a bowl of oatmeal 🫣😂.

Thank you! We have an air fryer and use toppings after the salmon is done cooking. 😀👍

I always cook my salmon wrapped in tin foil (brushed foil with light oil to stop fish sticking to it) Add a flavoured sauce to the tin foil, like teriyaki or sweet chilli or any sauce you like. Love salmon or any fish this way 👍

[Herman7275]

All sounds real good except the salmon, not my fav. Cheese crisps sounded good

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Herman7275]

What is your favorite type of fish?

Cheese crisps are usually used in my salad whenever possible. They’re also in chili (sometimes).😀👍

Hi there,

Your meal is really healthy. Over here in the UK I have traditional fish and chips on Friday, although I swap the chips for mushy peas and remove the batter from the fish to lower the carbs. How do you make the cheese crisps?

TTxx.

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to ThyroidThora]

Thank you! I don’t bake/cook the crisps. They are store bought. Everything else is bought, but we use the air fryer for the salmon cooking.😀👍

Sounds lovely Leah 🙃 last night I just has mash potato, with marinated tofu and thick gravy

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Kitten-whiskers]

Thank you, Debs. Your dinner sounded really delicious.

For lunch today, I will have leftover Vegetarian Chili and a Strawberry Greek yogurt.😀👍

[Kitten-whiskers Administrator Vegan star in reply to Activity2004]

That does sound delicious Leah 😊 what a nice meal. I will be having something with gravy, as my gravy is a little out of date

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Kitten-whiskers]

Thank you!

Sounds like a great idea! Enjoy your meal, Debs.😀👍

I have just started making tofu dishes! What do you use for a marinade? I’ve only made a teriyaki type marinade so far.

[Kitten-whiskers Administrator Vegan star in reply to Bluemerlegirl]

That sounds nice, the last one, I made with a little barbecue sauce, added a little maple syrup and added a little fresh ginger to the pan

[Bluemerlegirl Meal Of The Month in reply to Kitten-whiskers]

Ooooh, that sounds good! 😊

Why do you abbreviate bacon to bac'n or is it something else ?

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Dubris]

It’s Vegetarian ‘bacon’.😀👍

[Dubris]

Ah thank you, I thought it was a bit out of place with the rest of the meal 👍

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Dubris]

You’re welcome.😀👍👍

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Herman7275]

That’s a wonderful list of different types of fish and other food.

Cheese is one of my favorite food to add to any meal.😀👍
