I absolutely hate this question. It always comes when I’m in the middle of something else, or when I’ve lost track of time and it is now past dinner time.

I got lucky today. Not only did no one ask me the dreaded question, but I already knew what was for dinner.

Tonight we had pork grill steak and roasted potatoes. I didn’t actually know how to cook it, and Google wasn’t very helpful. I had no desire to grill in the Colorado evening. I’m not great at grilling to start with, and the temperature outside is too chilly to stand outside and grill. For me anyway. I know plenty of people who grill in the snow.

Turned out pretty darn tasty anyway. I seared it in the pan, then stuck it in the oven with the potatoes.

Do you like hearing that dreaded question? Will you hate me forever if I ask – what’s for dinner? Do you have a go-to when you’re not sure what else to do?
