Tilapia and broiled cauliflower! Yum!
We had BLTs Thursday night with local tomatoes and fresh Scali bread from the bakery. I prefer a great BLT to a great filet mignon!Quote:

I pulled out some of the minestrone from the freezer for tonight.
Klue - hope your DH is better! Honestly, my hubby has never said no to anything I've served for dinner - which I've just realized as I typed it. That's with accommodating his no seafood requirement, of course. He will eat FRESH caught fish the same day its removed from the water. Not store bought. Hubby is ok with grilled cheese and soup or breakfast for dinner. Even a salad and sandwich combo. I don't have to create a Sunday supper every night! I need to work on dinner at home for two. I can do one, or the family size but two is some how difficult for me!
I agree, and I'm trying to learn how to do this as well. After cooking large meals to feed many, it's HARD to dial back! I think I'm slowly getting the hang of it, but there are some meals that just come out with tons of leftovers. LOL.Quote:

Rice cakes, with left over wild rice mix with leek and gypsy pepper from the garden
I just remembered some tzatziki sauce in the frig. It's been a cucumber invasion this year and am about over them, but taziki can go with a lot of things as a condiment.
A salad with a dressing from Run Fast, Eat Slow, a book whose recipes I am trying despite the fact I am not a runner.
Eggplant pizza with fresh eggplant from a friend's garden.
Tomato sandwiches!
I am going to try this rice salad recipe tonight:

Having company so homemade spaghetti dinner, salad, rolls and dessert.
Baguette with hummus, champagne.
Wow, that sounds good! Celebrating anything?Quote:
