What's for Dinner, Sun., July 21 2019

I made one of my favorite tossed greens salads with farmer's market lettuce. It has chopped green pepper, red onion, diced cucumber, parsley, and sliced turkey bacon. I like to have this with Russian dressing.

The RG is in Manhattan for the next four days, so I'm going to have leftovers. Tonight I will have the rest of the chicken thighs that were baked in mango-peach salsa.

Orangina to drink.

Cantalope with vanilla ice cream for dessert.

The Landlady(!) is making pasta with fresh clam sauce and a small tuna steak.

I still don't have my appetite back but I have to eat!

Leftover taco meat put in flour tortillas with onions and potatoes in an enchilada sauce with cheese baked in the oven. I've got sour cream and lettuce to top with.

Diced and sauteed the squash with sweet onion, sweet peppers, garlic and Roma tomatoes. Made some angel hair pasta and tossed that with butter and parmesan cheese and then folded in the veg. Final touch was some fresh basil.

It tasted quite lovely.

So easy to make. Sometimes I add salmon, chicken or shrimp. Sometimes not. And sometimes I serve the veg on rice.
