April @thislittlepennyearns (68155) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 9 Apr

Tonight I finally made homemade orange chicken and chicken fried rice. This meal is a regular in our rotation. Ever since I made it for the first time, it’s been one of Chris and the kids’ favorite meals that I cook. It’s not...

Tonight was pretty easy. I pulled out my Ninja Foodi and made chilli. Easy. I cheated and never even made corn bread. I'm still not feeling great, so I just made the chilli and called it good. So that's what were chowing on...

I have been trying to post this since before I even started dinner. But now that dinner's done and been eaten the picture I took is way better than just the steaks in the marinade. We had ribeyes, baked potatoes, homemade...

We hit the road at 6:50 this morning and didn’t walk back through our front door until about thirty minutes ago, so cooking was absolutely not happening tonight. On our way back from the dealership, Chris and I swung by our...

April @thislittlepennyearns (68155) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 31 Jan

I had some thawed out hamburger meat in the fridge so I decided to make chili and cornbread. It was easy and didn’t take long. I always add extra hot sauce to my bowl when I make it because I like things a little spicer than...

Traceyjayne @Traceyjayne (11252) • United Kingdom 21 Oct

Yes, we really enjoyed the salmon fish cakes that we made last week. So much so in fact that we have just made some for tonight’s tea. We will have these with salad and baby potatoes. You can freeze them and we were going to do a...

I cheated a little bit tonight and let the store do the hard part—I grabbed a rotisserie chicken instead of cooking the bird myself. But hey, everything else was homemade, so we’re calling it rustic authenticity. My chicken and...

What's for din? (Last night) August 12th, 2025

April @thislittlepennyearns (68155) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 13 Aug

Last night I went full chef mode and made homemade enchiladas. Actually… I made two pans of them because apparently I live in a house divided. I wanted green chile enchilada sauce—because flavor and spice are the whole point—but...

I will admit the pictures in tonight's What's for din? Collage are not the greatest. I was rushed taking them because there were four hungry teenage boys and a hungrier 12 year old. So I snapped quick pictures. I promise it tasted...

I remembered to take the meat out of the freezer last night and stick it in the fridge so it would be ready tonight when it came time to start dinner. Then, when we were at Walmart, I grabbed some Simply Potatoes Hashbrowns. So...

Last night was a true homemade meal night—well, at least a portion of it. LOL. I guess I could have done the whole Pioneer Woman thing and made the breadsticks and noodles. I did not do that, but I did make alfredo sauce from...

Over the weekend, the child asked me to make homemade orange chicken. Life got busy, and then yesterday I completely forgot to thaw the chicken—so tonight was finally the night! I took a page out of @porwest’s book and cheated a...

A couple of weeks ago, Chris mentioned he was craving homemade orange chicken. So when I did our grocery order over the weekend, I made sure to grab everything we’d need to make that happen. Tonight, I finally made it—homemade...

I had planned on making bacon cheeseburgers and tator tots, but the hamburger didn't thaw in time. Luckily our Walmart grocery order showed up about thirty minutes before I was going to start dinner. It saved the day and let me...

Just finished cleaning up the kitchen after dinner, and I’ve got to say—it was a good one tonight. I made garlic pepper baked pork chops that came out nice and juicy, roasted potatoes with cracked black pepper and melted cheddar,...

We had a smoked ham that we had frozen after we bought it, so I took it out a couple of days ago and thawed it out in the fridge. I made a homemade honey/brown sugar glaze and cooked it low and slow in the oven. Also made...
