What's for Dinner, Sat., May 25, 2024

[NJCher]

I had a nice haul from one of my gardens this afternoon, so I've been experimenting with all my fresh produce.

Look at this gorgeous arugula:


I made this salad with it:


The salad has grape tomatoes, chopped, toasted walnuts, and parmesan with walnut/red wine vinegar dressing. Ground violet salt that my girlfriend in FL sent me.

This is mustard leaf. I thought it best to cut all the bigger leaves. I've been looking for a recipe and haven't found anything yet that intrigues me, but I have a phone call coming up with the RG. He might have good ideas.



Maybe some sort of Indian dish?

I've also been experimenting with mint tea. I brewed the leaves and then poured frozen fruit in the blender with it. The first one I did was pineapple, which was terrific. The blender gives it a foamy top. Fun to drink. I added a little agave.

Then I will have a few meatballs with Korean BBQ sauce.

4. Yay!

What kind of lettuce?

Tomorrow I might pick my oak leaf lettuce and if I do, I'll take a pic. This is such a good lettuce.

5. Big Sunday dinner (mid-day) w/ my son

roast pork, mashed potatoes and gravy, sauteed shaved brussel sprouts w/ an apple cider vinegrette, corn on the cob.

Then we all went to a really great ice cream place for dessert.

Got to see my granddaughter and give her the sweater-vest I made for her.
