What's for Dinner, Fri., June 2, 2023

[NJCher]

I made two salads. The first one was torn greens with the kebobs from yesterday in the center (blackened swordfish, shrimp, tomatoes, onions, peppers).

The second one was with chopped raw vegetables plus sliced ham and shrimp. I got to use one of my radishes from the garden: it was an icicle white radish and it was ever so delicious. The other veggies were carrots, peppers, celery, Vidalia, cherry tomatoes, plus green and black olives.

I used sweet creamy onion dressing on both.

This was all from lettuce I picked at the garden in advance of 94 degree temps, which we have in Northern NJ right now. I made a third salad for a friend and gave it to him.

It's been a rigorous day, protecting all those plants from the heat. Nice to sit back and relax and watch Nicole.

Dessert will be watermelon, icy cold watermelon. Drool.

Late night, if I get hungry, I'm making some sort of Japanese soup with udon noodles.

2. Peanut butter chicken, lots of vegs and rice

I haven't felt like cooking. Salad and wraps lately.

Hope your garden survives the heat. It's been dry for a couple of weeks here, and we are getting higher temps right now. The grass is browning. That doesn't usually happen till August.

Edit: I got energized and made some cucumber kimchi. I've always liked kimchi with leftover cold rice.

3. Well, hanging my head a little low here,

as I am going out to eat again tonight!

I rarely go out to eat, and now it's two nights in a row! But I'm okay with that.

(before or after 'dinner,' which will be I Dunno!)

6. A blast from the past...as a kid my Mom made 'biscuit dogs'-pigs in blankets...but

regular hotdog size with a biscuit wrapping...I have always had a weakness for hotdogs...so we had Sabrett hotdogs wrapped in gluten-free biscuit dough. I also had corn and sauteed green beans with lots of garlic. I had Diet Rite to drink...my favorite pop.
