What's for Dinner, Wed., June 25, 2025

Endive and bacon salad with Dijon mustard & anchovy dressing.

Gorgonzola and caramelized onion on walnut-cranberry bread. This sandwich is toasted in a skillet like a croque monsieur.

Some strong flavors in this evening meal!

I was going to tone it down with a chilled zucchini soup but this is enough work for me tonight. 96 here, but I think it's going to break in the next day or so.

Cranberry pomegranate kombucha.

Dessert: milk chocolate hazelnut bar. Cold decaf.

I've had some really good hot bacon dressings.
It slightly wilts the endive.

Leftover baked ham with Jarlsberg cheese on Deli rye/marble bread with mayo and spicy brown mustard.

Food fit for the Gods.

Chopped romaine, spring mix, thinly sliced cabbage, sliced red onion, black olives, chopped tomato, pickled beets, tossed in a homemade maple-balsamic vinaigrette dressing. I air-fried a couple teriyaki salmon burgers, chopped them and put them on top of the salad. Cheers! 🥂

a specific variety of mango prized for their smooth, creamy, and sweet flesh with minimal fiber and a characteristic golden-yellow skin that wrinkles slightly when ripe. They are typically smaller than other mango varieties and have a very thin pit, resulting in a higher flesh-to-pit ratio.

(Ice cream now.)
