What's for Dinner, Mon. May 13, 2024

Cold plate of vegetables: carrots, celery, cucumbers. Olives, artichokes. banana ring peppers. Vinaigrette and also Caesar salad dressing as the dips.

Baba ganouj (Mollie's spelling). I cooked it in the slow cooker because I read that eggplant is best cooked at a low, slow heat. This is a really easy dinner. The tahini and all the ingredients went right in with the eggplant. No-carb pitas to have with the baba ganouj.

Dessert: Hot ginger drink with agave. A few Werthers.

How tender and delicious the sausages were when cooked in the crock pot?

Best way to cook them!

Did you check out that 45 second video on a homemade popcorn huller using an electric drill? That looks like what I'll try if my crop of popcorn does well.

with a baguette for dipping. I will eat first half of the bowl with just the borscht, then I will add sour cream to finish it off.

Clam strips and clam chowder from lunch.
Had some good tartar so stopped close by the house for hot French fries and had that with the tartar as soon as I got home and just ate the rest of the soup a bit ago watching tv. A 🍷 to accompany
