I had a late lunch today, due to work, and am deciding what to have for dinner. A couple of (work) nights ago, I had Trader Joe's Kun Pao Chicken, with rice brought to me by a Filipino friend, garlic I had on hand, and peppers from a friend's garden, thrown in. It was delicious.
Tonight...eh....I invite suggestions.

@Courtlynn Wendy's? Are you rich? I rarely eat fast food. Too expensive.

We do not properly have dinner. We had bread with cheese, avocado and ham. I had a coffee and a nectarine.

@TheHorse We usually have a big lunch. We only have a proper dinner when we have guests.

@Marty1 Usually my biggest meal is lunch. And instead of dinner I have coffee with something light. If I have a party or if I am invited out at dinner, I eat a very light lunch.

I was suddenly craving for egg noodles so we went to this place called Wok'd and I ordered Mongolian Beef Hokkien noodles. Wasn't too bad but I thought the sauce was too overpowering. Will know not to order it anymore.

@TheHorse I probably can but I would rather try out the other stuff they have on the menu. I might find one that suits me. The place looks packed all the time, I'd feel guilty making all that fuss. But again, I'ma very timid person. I suffer in silence.

Wow, you have a Filipino friend. And you have a delicious meal. I can't suggest any food as I don't know how to cook. Hahah! Sorry. The photo made me hungry.

@TheHorse I see. There are indeed many Filipinos living in there. Are your house surrounded by Filipinos?

so, a day late, well, several actually... We made a dish we call "Ziti".
Now, because I'm allergic to beef, we used ground turkey. It also calls for ziti noodles, but we use elbow macaroni. Add to that, we use 8 oz of both cheeses and more like 2 cups of sour cream, and I have no idea how much Parmesan cheese, we just give the top a good sprinkle. We also add mushrooms, just because we like them.
It freezes good, and makes a ton of leftovers. It might be a bit much for just you, but if you are going to a dinner, or having a dinner with guests, you might want to consider making this.
It is not gluten free, but could be made that way with gluten free noodles, but also not for people who can't handle dairy or nightshades.
In fact, our friend who is allergic to nightshades came over while we were starting to fix this, and we stopped until after she left, just because even the smell of tomatoes or potatoes can cause her problems, just like the smell of popcorn can give me problems.
So, that's my suggestion for a dinner... YUM!
Spaghetti sauce and three kinds of Italian cheeses make a surprisingly quick and budget-friendly baked ziti that's perfect for a weeknight meal.

I had lunch for dinner. I went to Chuy’s for lunch, got half an order of quesadillas, and brought half of that home. That, and tomato basil soup, was the dinner fare.

Do you like chinese food. Maybe you could have that or have another idea something very simple to fix yourself. Do you have salami, hot dogs and an onion and red pepper. You could fry them all together and have a nice meal and make a salad if you want to go with it.
