What's for Dinner, Wed., May 21, 2025

Vegetable pancakes with zucchini, carrots, and scallions.

Turkey burger. Will mix the ground turkey with chopped spinach, scallion greens, and put in an egg to hold it together. Also tamari. Serve it on artisan roll. toasted in air fryer.

Kombucha: Passionfruit & Peach.

Dessert: blueberries and lemon Greek yogurt over toasted waffle. Tea.

It's going to be cold here at night time--under 50, which means trouble for tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant. If they get cold it affects the yield. I am headed to the garden now with a protection kit: cardboard boxes, bubble insulator, and row cover fabric. Also will put a 2 litre soda bottle of water in each box. It will give off heat all night and absorb heat the next day to help on the next night.

A mixture of brown rice, vegan beef crumbles, sautéed onion and garlic folded into pockets of blanched large cabbage leaves. Put the rolls in a greased baking dish and then I poured a simple tomato sauce I made from tomato purée, onion, garlic and fresh dill over all the rolls. Covered with foil and baked for about an hour at 375 degrees. Served with garlic mashed red potatoes, skins and all. Cheers! 🥂

…with a spicy Szechuan sauce for dipping.Kind of a splurge for me as I haven’t had them for a while.

Also splurged on a hard Arizona. Have had trouble finding the Rx Energy drinks anywhere and we stumbled on these in the beer aisle and fell for a Publix BOGO deal… Can’t say I’m a huge fan, but I’m such a lightweight these days that it might help me tumble into bed early for a change. LOL
