I saw someone made stuffed shells and I was inspired. So the plan is stuffed shells and a salad tonight.

What's your plan?
 
I frequently order from "Burger's Smokehouse" (http://www.smokehouse.com/) - mostly for gifts, but sometimes for myself. They recently sent me an offer for "buy one get one free" whole smoked turkeys, so I took advantage of it. Gave one of the turkeys to the local food pantry, & will be cooking up the other one tonight for dinner. Plan on serving it with mashed potatoes (hubby's request), buttered green beans, & a green salad.

Rest of the bird will make it's way into other dishes during the coming week, & the carcass will be terrific as a stock base for bean soups.

Since we have our power back on (it's been off and on 4 times since Thursday) I'm going to make lemon/dill crusted Sockeye salmon w/rice pilaf & steamed zucchini and for dessert, a lemon spoon cake :)

You could have come stayed with us (if we had a house right now ,this apartment will only hold two) we only lost power for 14 hours. Feeling pretty sad for all those folks that STILL don't have any.

I'm going to try making some lasagna roll-ups with a side of Italian sausage and top them with Victoria vodka sauce. We'll see if they stay rolled up :dizzy:.

Baked stuffed shells (lots of cheese) and a tossed salad (red & green butter lettuce, shredded red cabbage, shaved carrots, sliced mushroom cap, vine tomato and black olives dressed with flax, canola and EVOO oils, red wine vinegar, sesame seeds, herbs and spices).

You're gonna be eatin' chili for a while LT! That and the potato soup both look delicious!

I love stuffed shells Peeps and yours look really good.

Have fun Lily!

RM, that sounds really good!

Breezy...I'm sure the family that receives that turkey will be tickled pink!

Can't wait to see the pics Pancho!

Nothing special here tonight. We've been watching football so it was all easy stuff tonight. Fish sticks, scalloped potatoes (I like to keep a few boxes of Betty Crocker in the pantry for emergencies such as these) and green beans. I did make homemade biscuits though :lol:

I'm in the middle of making chili also. I'll serve it with corn bread although I also have sourdough. Humm. Decision time.

Thank you Mama. You can't see all the cheese that was on the shells because it was so stringy it came off LOL

BTW I just put fish sticks and tater tots on my list!! I wonder why :whistling:

A big OH MAMA that looks so good. I love scalloped taters!

Thanks Peepers....I can't take the credit for anything other than the biscuits. Mrs. Paul's, Betty Crocker and the Green Giant did all of the hard work :yum:
