What's for Dinner, Mon., Sept. 30, 2019

Crab-mushroom quiche. I'm using Swiss cheese, even though it's specified to use cheddar (Taste of Home recipe). Most crab quiches use Swiss and I think it will taste better.

For a crust, I'm making a Mollie Katzen recipe--a potato-cheese crust.

Green salad, tossed with cucumber, red onion, and tomato and chipotle ranch dressing.


Thanks for posting that recipe for me for the arugula walnut pasta, FoxNewsSux.

Mashed potatoes, spinach salad. It’s been gross and rainy here all day. It’s my day off, got a new library book to read, so Mom’s meatloaf (and subsequent food coma) is my plan for the evening. There’s cheesecake for dessert, too.

The crab quiche sounds delicious! Quiche and a green salad is a perfect meal, imho.

Got home late, so I just added some fresh chopped tomato, serano, garlic, onion and 1/4 cup frozen edamame to a can of progresso soup.

And you're welcome NJCher, I hope you try that pasta sometime
