    Whole Foods had a nice sale on Chilean Sea Bass so I'm going to pan sear it with salt, pepper and dress it with a little garlic butter and fresh herbs.

    Spring mix salad with diced tomatoes, carrot slivers, red onion and house made ranch dressing.

    Might add in corn on the cob but our guest is diabetic so trying to avoid much in the way of sugars.

    The lemon cucumber water turned out great!

      Rotisserie chicken from our local grocer.

      Baked spuds.

      Corn on the cob.

      Rutabaga.

      (Cheap) Scotch.

          Perfect summer dinner. (actually, any time you throw in corn on the cob....)

            Thanks, Cats!

            Our friend is not being good. She brought over a bottle of Veuve Cliquot.

            Yum, but not what I had planned for her health.

            The thing is, healthy food is delicious. I prefer it taste wise to heavy, fat laden stuff. (so why in h-e-double toothpicks a I so fat laden? Grrr...)

              @Mik said in It's Sunday night! What's for dinner?:

              I'm getting there rapidly. I hate when I run out of the healthy stuff and have to eat the non-healthy stuff. It wasn't that long ago when that wasn't true.

              I'm loving the increased energy and lightness-of-being feeling that comes with healthy eating.

                Very happy to hear that, Cats.

                As for the original question I'm having the second half of a pork tenderloin I made Friday night. Probably just a side salad as it's nearing the expiration date. Glamorous, I know.

                Only non-witches get due process.

                  Homemade pizza with a Napolitana crust, momma's homemade sauce, freshly grated mozzarella, and grass-fed ground beef mini-meatballs.

                    Edit to add: Had some Sweet Cheeks Pinot Noir with it. Perfect with pizza.

                        Stouffer's French Bread Pizza and a Diet Coke.

                        Afterwards, we treated ourselves to a brownie made from a brownie mix we bought at the Dollar Store for..... a dollar....

                            Did you all know that Charmin is thicker, but not as wide as other brands of toilet paper?

                            My "input - on - output" covers almost everyone's anticipated daily needs, is food-related, and darn good to know(!) like if you want to buy someone an expensive gift or something.

                            You're all welcome.

                            Yea! I participated in a cooking thread helpfully, accurately, and didn't even need to ask my best pal Ax for excrementational analysis. But you can correct me if I'm wrong, bud.

                              If you eat pork tenderloin after its expiration date, you'll need the wider paper.....
