What's for Dinner, Fri., Sept. 26, 2025

Tomato feta cheese soup with chopped basil.

Turkey sandwich on whole wheat with harissa sauce and caramelized onion. Cheddar potato chips.

Later tonight I'll have a tossed green salad with sesame dressing. Baby cucumbers, red onion, balsamic tomatoes.

Cherry kombucha.

Dessert: Caramel apple with peanuts.

------------------------------
Yesterday I tried the Screamin' Sicilian pizza, which is a frozen pizza you can purchase at the supermarket. I can see why it was recommended. It didn't really taste like a frozen supermarket pizza, and was pretty close to a pizzeria offering.

After the first piece or two, I added some chopped peppers, black olives, and onion. I'd get this pizza again.

I'll toss it with late cherry tomatoes, garlic & olive oil. Maybe a sweet red pepper. On fettuccini with shredded parmesan cheese. Bread. Wine.

I substituted chicken stock for the wine, and added mushrooms into the sauce mix. Steamed broccoli with butter, decafe tea for me, regular tea for her.




**** double the pan sauce****
