Warmer weather calls out for gatherings with family and friends to share good food. This potato/cabbage slaw will answer the call and get the conversation started. Pair it with a yummy avocado salad, some smoked salmon and a fresh baguette. It’s perfect food for casual dining and leisurely conversation. Make the salads early in the day and refrigerate.
Finish the evening with fresh seasonal strawberries.
It’s Saturday, June 7.
Another great week of dining lies ahead. It’s time to plan ahead and create your grocery orders.
Quick and delicious describe the Teriyaki Salmon Rice Bowl on the menu tonight. If you don’t have leftover rice, cook some bulgur.
Most of this meal comes from planned leftovers. If you don’t have leftover cooked salmon, pick up about 6 oz. of cooked salmon at your local deli. If necessary, make your own savory and sweet teriyaki sauce from the recipe provided. Teriyaki sauce keeps for quite awhile in the fridge. You can also freeze it.
Dark leafy greens, like chard, grow everywhere in the world so it’s no surprise that chard has been part of the Italian diet for centuries. Italians lovingly call them “biete da costa” (greens from the coast).
Tonight, we’ll serve chard over orzo with Marinara Sauce and speak of them “dolcemente a con amore.”
Everybody gets to play a part in dinner preparations tonight! As I’ve said on previous occasions, fajitas just taste better when everyone gets to build their own. This is an easy and delightful way for family and friends to enjoy an evening meal!
This fajita celebration will be even more special when you make your own condiments.
