Help me plan a week of phoned-in dinners

[Anonymous]

Italian beef - beef in a crock pot, packet of Italian dressing, tablespoon Italian seasoning, cook. Throw banana peppers in at the beginning or onto the sandwiches at the end. Serve on hoagie rolls or bread.

Frozen vegetables: usually put in pan, add a little water, cover and cook till tender. Add butter and Penzey’s seasoning of choice (I default to Buttermilk Ranch on green beans a lot).

Sorry for your loss, OP.

Nothing you have to worry about, sweetie. But if you really want to know, google "phoned in."

Umm I googled but it brings up cell phones at dinner.
Thanks for your kind response. I didn’t grow up here and have never heard this expression.

Lots of people these days don’t know how to use Google. It’s why they need AI to tell them how to live

I am very sorry for your loss, and I hope that you find some comfort soon.

Pasta with Costco pesto, frozen cooked shrimp, and cherry tomatoes

Ground turkey or chicken, stir fried, with whatever vegetables you have, onion, garlic, salt, smoked paprika, and add in a precooked container of rice.

Scrambled eggs with cheese and peppers, on a hot tortilla with grocery store pico de gallo

(And a bit of a different angle: savory oatmeal. Oatmeal, greens stir fried in garlic and ginger, a poached egg, and chili crisp)
