What's for Dinner, Mon., July 29, 2024

Bought some spicy crab rolls when I was at the sushi shop.

I'll add a few side dishes from the Asian salads I made yesterday--the quinoa with red cabbage, carrots, edamame, and cucumbers with Asian dressing, and toasted almonds and wonton strips. Also the crispy tofu cubes with orange sauce.

Pineapple-turmeric kombucha--one of my own flavors/brews.

Dessert: Cold Earl Grey with a 5-seeded almond bar.

3. Hot dogs

On the grill. The dogs are made by a butcher in upstate NY and they’re all-natural. Potato buns with spicy brown mustard, a dash of ketchup, chopped Vidalia onions and sauerkraut.

Nothing fancy.

They’re about the same price as Hebrew National hot dogs. We bought them from our local supermarket and they’re very popular. A bit better than Oscar Meyer!

7. Ham and noodle casserole

We bought a ham at Costco, which is probably excessive for a household of two, but it is versatile. Today's ham concoction is a casserole with ham, caramelized onion, mushrooms, and some swiss cheese. Tomorrow's dinner will be leftover casserole.
