What's for Dinner, Sat., Aug. 14, 2021

[NJCher]

This is a totally cold dinner because it is so hot I wouldn't think of turning on an oven.

Cold stuffed vegetable plate. There are stuffed peppers, cucumber, and zucchini.

I made the various stuffings over the past day or two. There is one vegetable stuffing (tomatoes, onion, pepper) with couscous. These vegetables are topped with grated parmesan. There is cream cheese stuffing, which goes in the cucumber, which I rounded out so it's a complete circle and then stuffed with the cream cheese. It has chopped cashews on top of it.

Cold chicken breast, cut into sections, and which had been marinated in Italian seasonings.

For dessert, lemon Greek yogurt with a handful of trail mix.

Pineapple peach kombucha to drink.

Later on I will undoubtedly have some watermelon.

1. Sounds delicious. I'm having yellow and orange watermelon tonight. Love the summer fruits

2. Made Tacos

I lightly fried soft corn tortillas.
Ground beef with cumin, paprika, powdered cayenne, a little sriracha sauce, a few drops of liquid smoke, diced onions, tomatoes, jalapeño, cilantro, and garlic.
Added 2 ounces of tequila, the juice of a lime, & sugar offset the heat & acid.
We're getting really good garden tomatoes right now so we're looking for things to use raw tomato.
We did club sandwiches last night.
I saved some diced onion & jalapeño to put on the tacos themselves.
I didn't feel like making sides, though.

8. Yum!

Your menus are remarkable.

We had a large Caesar salad with anchovies. The Landlady(!) made a spectacular minestrone soup and we followed that with a delicious platter of spaghetti marinara. Apples for dessert.

We’re sailing tomorrow so we’re planning several days of meals.

Sailing to where?
