Make something normal for dinner? Oh, come now. That would defy everything I stand for.
I am having enough of a hard time with @FourWalls introducing a series of instrumentals which I thought for sure would endlessly torture me but has instead tortured me with the realization that there are a good number of instrumentals out there I actually like.
I'm working through that as we speak.
My wife loves Manwich, and there's a lot that we do with it to incorporate it into a meal. As strange as it may sound, we never make Sloppy Joe's out of it.
So, tonight, I decided to make Manwich baked chicken thighs, and I am also baking some potatoes. I used half of the sauce on the chicken, and for the other half I sauteed some onions and then added the sauce to the pan which will be drizzled onto the baked potatoes.
We'll have buttered peas too.
Does this really sound all that strange to you? I mean, what's the difference between barbecue sauce and Manwich, really, except that the flavor profile is a little bit different?
What's going on your dinner table tonight?

It doesn't sound strange to me. I'm having my usual sandwich, veggie straws and yogurt tonight.

That is strange because I have always used mamwich sauce with ground beef and buns.

We use it all sorts of ways. One of our favorite things is a Manwich loaded baked potato. We'll cook up diced chicken or pork, and yes, even ground beef, with the Manwich sauce and then add it on top of a baked potato with all the other usual goodies like onions, and cheese, maybe even some sour cream. That's good eats.

Not a Manwich fan myself, It does sound rather tasty because I love to put together all kinds of ingredients and usually they come out very well. Today I just had some chicken wings made in chicken broth in my slow cooker,

They all sound good. Though I have never tried any of those. And being a vegetarian, I can try the other two dishes and leave the main attraction, chicken
. Enjoy it
It's lunch time here. But I am not hungry. I will have late one. I have cooked lentil soup, rice, salad, eggplant fry, and saute cabbage. There is curd and cucumber salad too.
. Enjoy it
