What do you do for a QUICK dinner on a week night?

I cook most weekends so leftovers last a couple of days. I also cook large batches of sauce, meatballs, sausage, meatloaf, stew and chili and freeze in individual portions.

Other quick ideas: rice and beans, (black, red/pink, chickpeas) pasta, salad in a pita, soup, whatever is in the freezer. Sometimes a tuna sandwich, breakfast for dinner, BLT. Once a week order out pizza or chinese.

In the summer it's so easy to grill a burger, steak, chicken, sausage, fish etc. Get some side salads at the deli or make a pasta salad and there ya go.

sunset park tips

I grew up in Sunset Park and moved out in 1996. Johnny's hasn't been good since I was a kid. (I'm 42). My father used to drive to Gino's on 75th and 5th and get a pie to go, or we ordered from a place on Bay Ridge Ave and 4th (or 3rd) but I forget the name of the place. I think he started doing that when I was about 20 or 21. I think Johnny passed away recently, and yes it was a big hangout place.

St. Germain in Bay Ridge - menu

psnative and Tay: Thank you, anyway. I like St. Germain as well, but I haven't been there in about 2 years. I am meeting friends there this week and wanted to send them a menu. It's no big deal, though. I think they will enjoy it!
