What's for Dinner ~ Wednesday June 12th

[Lucinda]

Allo all!

Leftover Greek pizza for me - White cheese mix with spinach, garlic, and black olives.
Not sure about the fella, he's not a fan of spinach pizzas.

You?

1. Pork stir fry.

Picked up a nice all natural boneless pork loin roast on sale for $2.27/lb yesterday.
I'll cut it up and stir fry it with my usual spices and either rice or rice noodles.

2. My husband has requested a beet and goat cheese salad.

I stopped at the farmers market this morning, and got some beautiful baby beets. When I bought all the beets he had, the guy threw in 4 kohlrabi, as well. yummm

Would anyone like to share an idea for a main dish (hubs says that means grilled meat) that would be a good accompaniment?

5. Grilled salmon

Coat it with mayo and paprika. Grill and top with capers.

7. Sounds delish!

But can I use mustard instead of mayo? And, no offense, but I can't stand capers...I'll just leave them off.

I think I will get some of those teeny, tiny golden potatoes. I saw a recipe for roasting them whole, submerged in salt.

Thanks for the suggestion! Off to market!

8. The mayo keeps it moist

Here's another one for salmon. Heat up some soy sauce, dijon and honey. Coat the salmon with it and marinate it for a hour or so. Grill the salmon and glaze it with the mixture. It's fantastic.

3. Especially for a Greek pizza, but this is good for all pizzas (and it might change your husband's...

... mind about spinach pizzas), have some Greek or Italian dressing to dip the slices into.

9. That sounds fantastic!

I have never heard of such a thing. What about just some warm, garlicky oil for dipping? Oh, yummm!

My family is gonna wish you had never told me about this. You may have created a monster. I gotta go find some stuff that I can cook to dip in dressing. The possibilities are endless!

4. Probably a pizza.

Veggie one with Greek olives, artichokes, and caramelized onions.

6. That sounds delicious!

We're having veggie burgers, fries and cole slaw .

10. I should never come here when I am hungry. n/t

11. Broiled peppered / limed snapper with broccoli, Brussels sprouts & curry mayo, rice.

[pinto]

12. A slice or two of that sounds good.

13. Turkey breast stuffed with cranberries and apples.

I got it at Trader Joe's. The rest of my yellow beans from the other night.

14. Salad

With Thousand Island dressing I made myself with yogurt instead of mayo. The salad will have a few Kalamata olives, some green olives, one or two hard boiled eggs, giant caper berries, green pepper and rye croutons.

I read the ingredients on the back of my favorite Thousand Island bottled dressing (Marie's) and I was horrified. No more. I'm making all my own dressings.

Now, off to the garden to cut my own fresh greens.
