I'm on a roll...

For two nights in a row, I have stuck to my plan of cooking dinner.  Last night we had blackened salmon with Jasmine rice and sugar snap peas.  The boyfriend hadn't had salmon before, and it was a hit!  He really liked it, even if I was trying to feed him a "healthy" dinner.

Tonight we are having boneless pork ribs that have been cooking in the crockpot all day.  I sprayed the bottom of the crock pot with Pam and covered the bottom with sliced red onions.  I then put the frozen pork ribs on top of the onions and seasoned them.  I used Lawry's season salt, cracked black pepper, garlic powder, red pepper flakes and brown sugar.  I then covered the ribs in BBQ sauce (just the Publix Original kind) and added about 1/4 cup of water to the bottom.  It has been cooking on low since about 5:30 this morning, and the ribs are falling apart.  It smells great and looks delicious!  For a side, we are having oven roasted potatoes. I washed and quartered a couple of potatoes and put them into a baking dish.  They are seasoned with salt, cracked black pepper, garlic powder and some red pepper flakes. (We like spicy.)  Should be a filling dinner, it is raining out and this fits the comfort food cravings.

Im still clueless as to what to make on Sunday.  Well, kinda.  I am leaning towards making my Cuban pork roast with black beans and yellow rice... but I am not really sure.  Going to think about it some more and decide, soon!
