What's for Dinner, Mon., Oct. 16, 2017

[NJCher]

I'm hoping for a broccoli rabe pizza with mozzarella and plum tomatoes (from my garden). The Resident Gourmand may have other plans, however. It's usually whatever his creative inspiration comes upon.

It is touch and go for us with water, as our water heater has a leak. We are getting a new one Thursday. So it might be a restaurant meal instead.

2. Meatless Monday....Ethiopian style food

Cabbage, carrots & sweet potato stir fried with Berbere spices. Naan bread & rice.

3. Leftover beef cacoila

on a crunchy roll. Some sort of a broccoli salad. (I'm in "freeze it or throw it" mode. Gearing up for a trip to Vegas on Friday, and need to clean out the fridge of perishables.) I still have some cacoila left, so I froze the remainder.

I even had leftover chicken soup for breakfast. That's gone.

4. Cheeseburger

Burger with sauteed mushroom and onions plus muenster cheese on top.

What else? I don't know yet. I am going to eat the burger before deciding.

5. Chicken & Dumplings

Dumplings are gluten-free and made with (homemade) chicken broth so they are very flavorful, served over mashed potatoes with steamed broccoli on the side. Simple, satisfying comfort food.

6. Tonight it is

Baked Salmon slathered in Hoisin Sauce with a side of Orange Marmalade and Crushed Pineapple Sauce (trust me it is good), Potato Salad and an Avocado. I was cleaning out the fridge. Somehow, it all worked.

7. Aldi for basics only

Great prices, limited selection.

I stopped buying at Trader Joe's about 2 years ago. They went insane on prices for ordinary stuff. Capitalism sucks.
