Quick easy dinner ideas?!
Answers: What is a quick, easy meal I can make for dinner tonight, I'm all out of ideas and dont want to fix just the "same old same old" again but I will be at the office late any ideas?
When I'm bored with cooking or have nothing interesting in the fridge, we have breakfast for dinner! Scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage, and toast. And if you feel ambitious, hash browns. It's great.
its easier to answer this when i know what kind of things you have on hand
Try this...they are so yummy!
Grilled Cream Cheese Sandwiches
Cut fresh french bread into 1/2 inch slices. Spread one side with real butter. Put on the grill. Cover the up side with 1/4 inch cream cheese and slices of the best tomatoes you can find. Salt and pepper. Cover with the other slice of french bread with butter on the outside. Toast until golden brown on both sides.
Serve with a nice green salad.
*********OPEN-FACED BACON SANDWICHES
6 slices bacon
2 French rolls
Thousand Island salad dressing
Slices of lettuce
Slices of tomato
Shredded Cheddar cheese
Cook bacon and drain on paper towels. On 1/2 of a French roll, spread dressing, then add lettuce, tomato, bacon (3 slices per sandwich) and shredded cheese on top. Broil 2-3 minutes until cheese is melted. Serve immediately. Serves 2.
*************EASY TACO-CORN CHIP MEAL
Make your favorite chili or chili beans. Crush 1 large bag corn chips. Cover bottom of baking dish. Cover chips with chili (about 1/2 of it). Sprinkle with chopped onions as desired. Sprinkle with grated cheese or cheeses such as Velveeta, sharp cheddar or Mozzarella. Repeat layers.
Bake at 350 degrees about 15-20 minutes. Serve with salad or top each serving with chopped lettuce and tomato pieces and/or sour cream or salsa sauce. Experiment.
Meatloaf is one of my favorite recipes - served with mashed potatoes and whole green beans or steamed baby carrots.
Meatloaf

3 large eggs

Mix all ingredients, form into a loaf in a loaf pan, bake at 350 degrees F for 1 1/2 hours.
