What's for Dinner, Sat., Mar. 23, 2019

Appetizer: toasted slice of rye, slice of candied citrus topped with triple cream cheese.

Salmon with ginger soy orange sauce.

Two kinds of salads, both of which came from the WF mezze bar. One is couscous with vegetables and the other is tabbouleh, which of course is made with parsley, with tomatoes, mint, onion, bulgur, etc. The latter is being served over Boston lettuce leaves.

Dessert: strawberry tart with shaved dark chocolate over it. It also has hazelnuts and golden currents in it.

We make a vegetarian version with kale, basmati rice, pinto beans, onions, and garlic. We sprinkle mozzarella on it or grilled tofu. The key is a lot of sage....
We are camping, it is easy to make a lot and freeze it for camp meals.
Dessert? Spiced jelly beans!

One of my frequent favorites. I'm still using the ham from January.

I truly LOVE my scalloped ham and potatoes. I live alone, and so one ham gives me a lot of meals. I still have at least two or three frozen packages of ham slices for this meal in my freezer.

I must add, that this is the ONLY meal I make that is actually worse the next day. Not a lot worse, but just not as fabulous as when it first comes out of the oven. It just doesn't keep well, even though I'll eat it until it's done. Not sure why. If anyone has some insight here, I'd appreciate it.
