Haven't thought towards dinner yet.

Dinner tonight will be burgers cooked on the grill -- and the snow is coming down in buckets out there!! I hadn't planned for that.

Good luck with your snowy dinner, Chocomouse!

I made four quarts of applesauce on Sunday, which I froze. I left out another cup for us to enjoy. I am pleased that the Weston Tomato Strainer that I bought last year made the process quick and painless. I liked it last year, and I like it even better this year. I mostly used Ida Red apples (seconds), but I put in some other varieties from the other two bags of seconds we bought. I cooked the apples whole, only removing the stems, in a Le Creuset 5 ½-qt pot and a 7 1/4 qt- pot. I save any remaining juice to use in making my oat bran cereal, which is cooked in half milk and half apple juice. I froze 2 cups of it and set aside a half cup for later this week.

For dinner, we warmed up some of last night's chicken-vegetable pasta and roasted delicata squash. That gave me plenty of time to do the applesauce in the early afternoon.

We had waffles for supper.

My husband says he doesn't mind running out onto the deck to grill - - even in the snow! And the burgers were great! We haven't had burgers for about 2 months.

We had Manwich and chips and I made another cheesecake with cherry pie filling on top. Was the easy kind no bake.
Wow Chocomouse Snow already and my AC is still running .

[Joan Simpson]

I'm having celery and pimento cheese and fresh pineapple.

[Mike Nolan]

We had lavash pizza again.

[chocomouse]

We had Italian sausages and blueberry pancakes with maple syrup for dinner tonight. The snow we got this morning has all melted now.

I finally made pizza last night. I was glad to see we had kept our pizza pans as I was only making one and I couldn't get the steel out for just me. The crust had been in the freezer too long, but I still enjoyed it

That pizza looks good, CWC!

I made pork tenderloin tacos and cauliflower.

I concur with Len: the pizza looks great!

We finished the leftover pasta and squash for dinner on Monday which worked out well as we had to go to Fort Wayne this morning. After we got back, I devoted the time to making another four quarts of applesauce. I will freeze two of these, along with two 1-cup containers of unsweetened applesauce for baking. The rest went into a large bowl and will appear on the table as part of Thanksgiving dinner. I only had ¾ cups of apple juice this time, possibly because I cooked the apples longer, and I froze it for later use as well. My next project will be apple butter.

I made soup for dinner on Tuesday, using broth from the freezer, Bob's Red Mill Vegi-Soup mix (combines red and brown lentils, green and yellow split peas, and barley alphabet letters) ground turkey, chopped carrots and celery, sliced mushrooms, kale, and chopped red bell pepper from our plants, which are now on the enclosed porch for the winter. I harvested the rest of the red peppers and put them in the refrigerator. I used a tablespoon of Penzey's Ozark seasoning in the soup, as well as some minced garlic and dried onions. We will have it for dinner tomorrow as well, then I will freeze the rest.

[Joan Simpson]

I agree with Len and BakerAunt your pizza looks great Cwcdesign! I'm still eating light I had fresh pineapple , satsumas and cheese.

[RiversideLen]

I made stir fry with leftover pork tenderloin, cauliflower, sugar snap peas, mushrooms and celery. Had it with rice.
