What's for Dinner, Tues., May 20, 2025

[NJCher]

Starting off with a snack plate, since I've been out most of the day, and am I ever hungry.

The plate has half a ham/Swiss cheese sandwich on marbled rye with Chipotle Ranch dip. Genoa salami on club crackers with mustard. Cherry tomatoes, cream cheese/walnut stuffed celery sticks. Cassava chips.

Later I'm going to invent a cabbage soup with garden herbs and hot sausage bits.

Broccoli with my favorite sesame sauce that I haven't made in an age.

Passion fruit-peach kombucha.

Dessert I'm unsure about. Might skip it and just have some berries with tea.

Good Evening

2. Red snapper

First, a sauce of sliced cherry tomatoes, garlic, chopped red and green peppers, onion, cumin and oregano with a dash of lemon. Then the fish will be sautéed in the same pan. Served with rice and a cucumber salad with olive oil, Balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper. Pinot Grigio and lemon ice-water. Panamanian chocolates for dessert.

We bought the fish from a fellow with a ceviche stand in Coronado, Panama. There's a lady who sells fresh fruits and vegetables from her roadside stand and she's become a go-to for us. It's all fresh and delicious!

ETA: The total cost for the dinner, including the wine, was under $15.00!

5. That's amazing

The RG travels internationally and often sends me pics of what he has at restaurants. Then he tells me the price, because I always ask. It is amazing to me how much more reasonably the rest of the world dines.

Now you’ve got me hungry at 5:26 AM.

My son made this. He added roasted salted cashews, which was a good addition. We also had kimbap from the Burmese store.

6. I saw those chili crisps

At the store. I, too, thought about adding cashews.

Guess I’ll have to invest in a jar.
