What's for Dinner, Wed., July 27, 2022

[NJCher]

Eggplant-almond enchiladas. This is a favorite recipe of mine from Mollie Katzen. I'm using flour low-carb soft tortilla shells, though. Not really that crazy about corn tortillas.

You're familiar with Mollie, right? She's considered the mother of vegetarian cooking in America. I've been using her recipes all my adult life.

Mollie is also an opinionated liberal. She Tweets at https://twitter.com/MollieKatzen. Lately she's been sounding off about the SC decision.

I'll also make a tossed green salad to go with the enchiladas. I have a new container of spring mix to use.

Prol'ly no dessert 'cuz I'm lazy. Maybe some green grapes and iced decaf.

1. Boiled chicken leg and vegetables

carrots, cabbage, broccoli.

Dessert? Tired of chocolate ice cream. I think I'll be baking rice pudding soon.

2. Who Knew: Chickpea and Garbanzo Have Same Number Of Letters

One garbanzo bean gently swirling in a sea of others

Glistening brightly while slipping away from my spoon

A crispy cracker set nearby wails oh so silently as I snap it

Now into my pie hole you nasty tasting little beans of proteins

I try not to think of real meal food while walking off my beanies

One day soon (or in my next lifetime) I will be slender again (or not)

Q: What's the difference between chickpeas and garbanzo beans?

A: Donald Trump has never had garbanzo beans on his face.

(I'm truly sorry but I hate him that much!)

9. Kung pao chicken. Yesterday I made cherry pie filling with some cherries

the kids brought me from Door County, and I also made brownies. So for dessert I'll have a brownie topped with cherries and maybe some whipped cream.

10. Door County Wisconsin. Beautiful area. I

once had a run I drove every week one winter that took me up to Sturgeon Bay, etc etc. I always said I like to take a vacation in this area, but never did.

before the kids go back to school.

11. Salad

I have some fresh mozzerella, some tomatoes, cucumbers, artichoke hearts, and an avocado, so it will be a large salad.
