What's for Dinner, Sat., June 7, 2025

Manhattan clam chowder.

Crusty garlic bread.

Majorly huge gigantic enormous tossed green salad that may last me for a year.
Has red tip, ruffly green, arugula, oak leaf lettuce; red onion, cherry tomatoes, red and yellow peppers, celery, maybe cucumber, and homemade vinaigrette.

Ginger kombucha.

Dessert: hot tea and some Werther's.

I am having a grilled ribeye covered in butter and a few asparagus spears. Sparkling water to wash it down.

Tossing cut up thighs in flour+turmeric, browning those and adding small-cut asparagus bits, then adding a sauce of honey, black pepper, red pepper flakes and a dash of rice vinegar. Served with green salad, maybe a little rice.

Bon appetit, Y’all!

Steam-fried in evoo and veggie broth: chopped onions and minced garlic. When soft I added a thinly sliced mushrooms and a large amount of organic baby spinach. Finally I added cooked cannellini beans and some more evoo. Served over whole wheat penne. Finished with a good sprinkle of vegan parmesan. Cheers! 🥂
