I gave the new outdoor grill pan a whirl and man oh man...it worked very well. I cut up some eggplant and some squash and onions and peppers and mixed them up with some olive oil and creole seasoning and put them out on the grill in the pan...when that was done, I did the same thing (OO and creole seasoning) with some shrimp and then threw them on a for a few minutes...heaven.
hmacneil, that Capri Chicken is a favorite of ours, too. I haven't made it in a while, I'll have to put it on the menu real soon.
Cat, I have a grill pan that looks similar to yours. I just love my veggies grilled, it really brings out their flavor. I'm a big fan of roasting veggies in the oven, too.
Tonight we're just having leftovers. The recipe for the meatloaf makes a big one, but it's fabulous. You all have got to try it!
I think tonight will just be sandwiches (whole grain bread, lower sodium ham, lower sodium turkey, Swiss cheese, and miso dijonnaise) and sweet potato fries. I've been very tired lately, so I don't want to mess much with dinner in the hopes that I'll have time for a nap this evening
Oooh...are sweet potatos OK for phase one? I'd love to make those fries!
I think tonight will be mexican chicken stew. I need to get back to making things that offer leftovers for lunches, etc. And I think it is going to be a rainy day so stew might be nice. In fact, I can start it in the crock pot now!
Tonight its upside down Chili bake. I've got leftover chili thawing in the fridge I'm going to top it with FF RF beans and cheese and nuke it. . .or bake it based on energy
Nats Mom depending on the flavor of the meatloaf puree a can of beans and put it in its a good non bread binder! also its a great place to hide veggies
Going to do a frittata using the leftover grilled vegs from yesterday and add some rotisserie chicken (or shrimp) and spinich and more green peppers and onions and mushrooms. That will give us dinner tonight (along with a salad) and will be breakfast for the rest of the week. Love those frittatas for cleaning out the fridge!!

Wow, I've never heard/thought of that. What a great idea! I don't make meatloaf, but I bet this would also work to stop my homemade turkey burgers from falling apart.
Really good in meatballs too! Puree Cannelini beans with some garlic and throw in some sauteed frozen spinach, mushrooms and onions. flax works well too!
tuna salad on ezekial sesame toast, topped w/provolone cheese & popped under the broiler=tuna melts
I mound the tuna salad up, about twice what I would normally put on a tuna melt, then we just eat 1 slice of the bread and eat it with a fork.
Veggy to go with, maybe salads, maybe spinach or edemame.
And the meatloaf recipe is in the new SBD - Supercharged book.
