What's for Dinner, Thurs., Feb. 26, 2026

[NJCher]

Not all salads have lettuce, and I found this one in my Giada pasta cookbook: It's called Skewered Greek Salad. Cherry tomatoes, feta cheese cubes, pitted Kalamata olives, and sweet red onion slices. Vinaigrette in a small bowl to dip each piece.

Entree is Creamy Cauliflower Alfredo over pasta. Rigatoni, I think.

Kombucha: unflavored.

Dessert: roasted black plums with agave sweetened Greek yogurt.

I still haven't been out of my house since the storm! The private road has ice spots and I'm waiting until it melts. Won't be long because the temps are nice here--47 right now, at 3:45 p.m.

1. Is Kombucha good?

i have been reading about it being good for gut health because it is fermented. Afraid to try it because I don’t know of anyone that drinks it. Yogurt and bananas are OK, but I need more of a variety to choose from.

3. Do you like Kim Chi? Korean fermented veggies & is also good for gut health

5. No, I have never tried it and it does not appeal to me. That's why i was wondering about Kombucha.

I could probably drink something though.

2. I'm doing 2 dinners for tonight, one for me, a slow cooker beef&noodles for a sick neighbor

Slow cooker beef & noodles from here-https://whatsmomcookin.com/beef-and-noodles-in-the-crockpot
B/C of the mushroom soup, I added extra mushrooms
I made the noodles on the side b/c 1 kid likes this over mashed potatoes & the other kid likes noodles, Mom likes the peace.
It was very easy to do.

For me Chinese dumplings in ramen broth with sliced bok choy, napa cabbage & mushrooms an egg roll & decafe tea.


That salad sounds good Cher

9. Black Bean and Sweet Potato Burritos

First I steam-fried in evoo and veggie broth: chopped onion, red bell pepper and minced garlic. I then air-fried sweet potato nuggets and added them to the veggies along with cooked black beans. I seasoned the veggies with chili powder, cumin, oregano, red pepper flakes and parsley. I added the mixture to lavash flat bread, which we like better than burrito shells, and folded the bread into a wrap. Pineapple tomato salsa slathered on top before eating. Cheers!🥂
