Mike Nolan.I had a tomato and salami sandwich, Diane had an omelet.
Mike I hope Diane is enjoying her retirement!
Mike, I second Joan's good wishes for Diane's retirement.
For Friday night's dinner, I used some of the roasted turkey breast in a penne pasta dish. I started by searing chopped yellow zucchini until the pieces had some caramelization. I then moved them to a bowl. I sauteed chopped celery and red bell pepper, then added sliced mushrooms. I returned the squash to the pan and added the leftover turkey gravy and some chicken broth. I seasoned it with freshly ground black pepper, some celery salt, and dried parsley. I undercooked the penne so that I could add it to the vegetable-turkey sauce to finish cooking in it. We will have leftovers for at least two more nights and maybe three.
I found sweet corn at the farmers market this morning, so Saturday's dinner was an ear of sweet corn for each of us, along with a salad that featured a greens mix from the market, our cherry tomatoes and some chunks of turkey. We also put crumbled Greek cheese on it, and I added sunflower and pumpkin seeds, and black olives to mine. I pulled a small zucchini Bundt cake out of the freezer, which I glazed for dessert.
Tonight I made another Margherita pizza. (This is before I put the basil leaves on.)
