Grilled salmon and wild rice. THANKS Mamie! (Why does this chef look like someone I wouldn't want cooking for me? LOL)

Chicken breast, pasta salad and zucchini. Thanks for posting that, Karen. Teach, it was so easy and unbelievably good. I didn't use the two cans of chicken broth, I substituted one can with cream of chicken soup. I followed what some of the reviewers had posted. I added chili powder, cumin and some cayenne pepper. We topped it with cheese, sour cream and crushed up tortilla chips.

Mamie - I was planning on those additions too (minus the cream of chicken as DH and I are working on healthier lifestyles) after reading the reviews. I figure it can't be "tortilla" anything if there isn't cilantro and cumin involved. I'm making "beer in the rear" chicken on Sunday, so the leftover chicken will be even better than canned (and I'm seasoning it w/southwestern flavors, so we'll be a step ahead of the game).

I dug out my mother's chow mein recipe and made it, served over egg noodles & topped with rice noodles.

Venison tenderloins and corn (frozen from fresh off the cob this past summer - definitely a nice treat when it's only 15 degrees outside!)

No idea what's for dinner tonight, but whatever it is is going to have to go with the cinnamon buns I have rising right now. Last weekend I rekindled my love of baking yeast doughs. I think I might do roast beef and yorkshires tonight. I'm in a domestic kind of mood today, LOL.

Grilled salmon steak and a red wine risotto with peas. I made the risotto from Diada DiiLaurentis' recipe, it was good but not as great as I thought it would be. Fun to make, though.

Got too wrapped up in the thought of the cinnamon buns to think about dinner. Ended up pulling out some chicken cannelloni from the freezer that I'd made for a dinner party about two months ago... they're in the oven right now. But I've already had one and a half cinnamon buns, complete with cream cheese icing. Who really needs dinner when you've already had dessert??

GAL, if you get the chance, try the Barefoot Contessa's butternut squash risotto recipe. It's fab-ooo--literally one of the best things I have ever made. I can't bring myself to make Giada's red wine risotto because of the color.

Tish, Giada's actually turns out purplish/brownish. Sort of off-putting if you're not prone to eating purple foods, which I am NOT. I will DEFINITELY look for the Barefoot Contessa's butternut squash risotto - Colossus came home with a butternut squash last week and horked it almost whole. I've never eaten a squash in my life, I was horrified. But it will be fun to surprise him with the risotto!
