View Full Version : What do you eat for dinner when your s/o is gone?
Christine 04-17-2007, 10:06 PM Alan is out of town again this week - and I am by myself eating dinner. I hate to cook - especially for myself - and I always end up eating macaroni and cheese. What do you eat for dinner when your s/o is not home for dinner. I need to branch out for the next few nights - I don't think I can eat mac and cheese more than 2 nights in a row?
sixdogssixcats 04-17-2007, 10:08 PM Cold cereal. I could live on the stuff.
Emily M 04-17-2007, 10:35 PM yep... cereal, or I will eat fast food. ACK. :sad3:
eaglemansbaby1124 04-17-2007, 10:59 PM I will eat either a sandwich cold cereal or lately I have been living off of weight watcher meals.
MyBlueEyedBabies 04-17-2007, 11:49 PM Now that I have two kids to cook for I tend to actually cook something...before that I would have cereal, soup, popcorn...ice cream (did I just admit that???)
cariberry77 04-18-2007, 12:46 AM Same here... cold cereal or popcorn. If I really want to treat myself, I'll hit McDonald's!
Debbie 04-18-2007, 01:10 AM I love cold cereal too.....my favs are Raisin Bran...Cinnamon Life ,frosted mini wheats, and lucky charms...anything granolaish...I cook as little as possible anything i can just pop into the microwave.
My dh travels a LOT and when he's home, he's still rarely ever home for dinner...and B only eats purees, so I wind up eating frozen meals, cold cereal or a bag of popcorn. I've also been known to down a bag of jellybeans or a handful of cookies with a soda...I know, I'm the picture of healthful eating!
AvasMommy 04-18-2007, 05:58 AM I'm with Lesley...cereal, all the way. My current fave is Cinnamon Life, b/c Ava sometimes eats a few bites too.
I am weird, I buy salmon and broil it. IT's the only time I can have fish in the house, because DH can't stand it. If not, I order sushi. He also can't stand it.
I'll get some sushi....YUMMY, a Lean Cuisine meal, or spaghettios (I know some people think they are gross but I LOVE them!) Otherwise, I make a meal out of cheese and crackers, LOL
Or....I hit up Taco Bell :smt036
Karas Mom 04-18-2007, 11:15 AM I will usually eat cereal or sometimes make pancakes or something else "breakfasty". I love breakfast for dinner, but my DH not so much. I sometimes make stuff he doesn't like, like asparagus or brussel sprouts w/ pasta or something. If I am really in need of a treat I hit McD's, but then I hide the trash b/c I alwasy feed guilty after eating fast food.
take out thai food or soup and bagels or whatever dh made and left for me LOL
kimber 04-18-2007, 01:44 PM Hi
I'm with the others....I go for cereal with milk....mini-wheats or an egg sandwich
When I'm really lazy I got for the good ole bag of popcorn!
Vicky 04-18-2007, 04:26 PM This is hilarious! I thought I was the only one! My dh is usually home, but if he isn't, I'd probably just have a can of soup with a bagel. Or banana sandwiches! hee hee.
Miori 04-18-2007, 04:37 PM I'm not great about cooking, even when dh is home, lol! :smt036 Though, I have been trying lately...
Maddie 04-18-2007, 07:22 PM I also make breakfast foods!!! I love breakfast all day, but dh thinks it can only be eaten in the morning.
