What's on the menu for everyone today??
Made a throw-together casserole yesterday, so we'd have an easy, fast dinner today, travel day. On our way to Walker, MN!

We have leftovers, ribs and pasta salad. Getting a little tired of summer BBQ food, so need to look up some meals we haven't had recently and menu plan!

I am also getting a little tired of summer bbq food (glad there are no leftovers) so thought of making southwestern sloppy joes until I realized they have bbq sauce in them. LOL. Cannot deal with bbq sauce again today.
Then I thought of the birthday burritos but my avocados are not ripe.
Back to the drawing board.

OK, think I decided on Cajun Chicken Stroganoff.

That sounds really delicious Denise.
I'm using leftover roast to make French dips.

We bbq all year round too (I think So. Cal. probably has the best grilling weather since it never freaking rains).
But 5 meals in a row (one on Saturday, two on Sunday and two on Monday) is my limit. I need something cooked in a frying pan. LOL. There's not a grilled item on the list this week except for a recipe a friend just sent me. I'm thinking the lemon garlic butter sauce at the end however may not be necessary.
Ok, here goes. In a food processor about 6 cloves of garlic. 2 chopped shallots. A3-4 inch piece of fresh ginger cut up 1/2cup olive oil. And 1cup of fresh cilantro that you rough chopped and juice of 1fresh lemon. Salt and pepper to,taste Process till smooth. Marinate boneless skinless thighs cut in bite sized pieces in plastic bags overnight in refrigerator skewer chicken and grill about 7 minutes a side. Meanwhile. In small saucepan. Melt 1 stick butter with 3 cloves sliced garlic and juice of 1 lemon. You want to heat through so the garlic is not completely raw. Just before pouring over cooked chicken when you are ready to serve add more fresh chopped cilantro. You can adjust this recipe for more or less chicken. It is difficult to make a mistake with the ingredients. Enjoy!

I think tuna patties with sauteed broccoli rabe and spinach. That could all change - I've got 3 1/2 hours more to go at work and my "boys" are heading for the store. Hmmmmmm.

I had a church meeting this afternoon that went long, so I'm cooking chicken tenders for buffalo chicken salad. Too hot out to grill them, so they go in a skillet.
