What's for Dinner, Tues., Aug. 16, 2022

Posting early due to late afternoon meetings.



Turkey salad in a wrap. I made the salad from a roasted turkey breast plus chopped celery and onion from the garden. Mayo-based dressing. Plan to have this on low-carb wraps with crisp turkey bacon to line the wrap. Chopped avocado goes on top, too.

I cut different kinds of herb leaves to sprinkle over the salad before closing up the wrap. Mostly basil and mint, but marjoram, too. Chives.

To go with it, a bowl of cherry and yellow pear tomatoes.

Dessert: three squares of milk chocolate and a blueberry milkshake.

--------------

on edit: Tomorrow I'll be in a union meeting all day, so Emile has graciously agreed to post the dinner thread.

Thanks, Emile!

Easy tonight. Beer battered fish fillets (frozen), tater tots and peas, with malt vinegar. Not sure when or what I'll eat.

Teriyaki marinated pork tenderloin cooked on the grill, rice pilaf, steamed green beans.

Cookies for dessert.



Al's going to have a pizza. Probably sausage, ham, onion and extra cheese.

Brussels sprouts. I bought some today and look forward to cooking them with reduced balsamic.

My neighbor gave me a good bottle of balsamic last Christmas, and I think I've used most of it on brussels sprouts. Mostly to drizzle over sprouts from the air-fryer. Since I had the tuna, today I made the reduction for both and it turned out great.
