What's for Dinner, Wed., Nov. 21, 2018

Going out tonight to a Portuguese restaurant, as I'm picking up the RG who is coming in from San Francisco. I plan on having cod in tomato sauce. Usually the Portuguese dish has black olives in it, along with parsley and basil.

Their baker makes orange cake, and if they have it tonight, I'm ordering a slice.

I made the Burrito Casserole at Budget Bytes with my taco leftovers yesterday and my family LOVED it. It looked like hell but it was so good!

My dad was released from a rehab hospital this morning so we're keeping it simple.

Spaghetti and meatballs. I use the three-meatloaf combo for the meatballs.
Green salad with tomatoes and fresh bread.
Vanilla ice cream.

Tomorrow, however, I'm going to make the whole dinner. Now that Dad's home, we have lots to be thankful for.

I heard more pizzas are ordered the day before Thanksgiving than any other single day outside the Super Bowl

On toasted sourdough.
And a locally grown pear.

Had a couple beers after work so my belly was full.
