(25 minutes at 375, I think!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253351 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 15:41:59 +0000 Clementine 253351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@duckduckkristen: nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253316 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 15:07:07 +0000 duckduckkristen 253316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>BLT salad - just cook up some bacon, chop some tomatoes, throw it on some lettuce and add a bacon vinaigrette!</p> <p><a href="http://www.thekitchn.com/recipe-blt-salad-with-bacon-vi-120311" rel="nofollow">http://www.thekitchn.com/recipe-blt-salad-with-bacon-vi-120311</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253289 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 14:48:22 +0000 Adira 253289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsmenow: Good to know! I think the gorgonzola that's they put on the gorgonzola alredo (at Olive Garden) is sprinkled on after, so not heated up. And now I'm hungry... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253277 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 14:33:29 +0000 mrsmenow 253277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I am substituting mozzarella in mine. DH will use the gorgonzala. I think if you are using it in a sauce that you will be heating you can stll eat it, but definately something to ask. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253274 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 14:33:07 +0000 Clementine 253274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsmenow: looks scrumptious! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253245 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 14:16:52 +0000 Adira 253245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsmenow: I'm so jealous!!! I love steak and gorgonzola together (steak gorgonzola alfredo anyone?)!! I don't think I can have gorgonzola now that I'm pregnant though, so I'm sooooooo jealous! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253220 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:50:08 +0000 mrsmenow 253220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am doing steak gorgonzola on flatbread! </p> [attach=1499/12/m8i4cf.260x260.steak.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253171 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:12:12 +0000 Clementine 253171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: nice! i like simple meals that are healthy like the one you just suggested! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253169 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:11:28 +0000 Clementine 253169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: thanks, i was looking for a cute one but i could never find one until today! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253163 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:09:29 +0000 heffalump 253163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Taco night is always a favorite at our house. I also make a chicken pesto pizza that is crazy easy (probably because it's cheating and using all precooked food.... but you don't have to do that.). I get naan bread, pesto sauce, and put some chicken on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253158 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:04:38 +0000 chopsuey 253158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>aww love your new profile pic!<br /> grilling is always easy--salmon, steak, chicken.<br /> pasta's easy too. </p> <p>@rubies' chili recipe is easy too! I took out some of the ingredients and it was still REALLY good. Will * the ones I left out. </p> <p>1 lb ground beef<br /> *1 chorizo sausage (optional - I just use it for the flavour, take out of the casing and brown it with the ground beef)<br /> *2 stalks of celery chopped<br /> *2 jalapeno peppers chopped (with or without the seeds, depending on how much spice you like)<br /> 1 bell pepper diced<br /> 1 onion chopped<br /> 1 cup corn (I use frozen, not canned)<br /> 1 19oz can of kidney beans, rinsed and drained<br /> 1 28oz can of diced tomatoes<br /> 2 tbsp of chili powder<br /> *2 tsp of oregano<br /> ceyenne powder (optional - for spice factor)<br /> salt and pepper to taste</p> <p>1. Brown the meat and drain fat, set aside<br /> 2. In a large pot, saute all the veg (except the frozen corn) until soft<br /> 3. Add in all the spices and corn, mix well<br /> 4. Add the meat, stir<br /> 5. Add beans and tomatoes, mix<br /> 6. Taste and adjust seasoning<br /> 7. Simmer on low for 30min-hour...Doesn't matter. If it's too soupy, just simmer uncovered until it thickens.</p> <p>Tastes better the next day! This makes a big pot of 6 portions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253157 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:04:25 +0000 Clementine 253157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: yumo!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253148 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 12:59:20 +0000 regberadaisy 253148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Turkery burgers with yam fries tonight.</p> <p>Earlier this week we did homemade grilled chicken w/diced tomatoes, grilled zucchini &amp; red pepper, and tomato/garlic puree in a wheat pita pocket. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dinner-ideas-please#post-253117 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 12:31:19 +0000 Clementine 253117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've literally been eating the same thing for the past week.
