Mike Nolan.It was a hot day, with temperatures in the upper 80s. That made it a good day for leftover hamburgers and potato salad. I also made yogurt.
We had leftover tortellini salad with tomatoes, spinach, mozzarella and blueberries. (Had to use them up).
I made chicken pot pie from leftover baked chicken and we had a lettuce and tomato salad with it.
We're having burgers on the grill. I mixed up some five bean salad and will probably taste it at supper, mainly to see if I need to adjust seasonings, but it probably needs to marinate for a day.
It was 72F this Wednesday morning, but then a thunderstorm with rain came through and nicely cooled our area as well as watering our garden. We got an inch of rain. I made my turkey, lentil, vegetable soup for dinner, using chicken broth, water from cooked potatoes, carrots, celery, red bell pepper, mushrooms, garlic, ground turkey, Bob's Red Mill Vegi-Soup assortment (red and brown lentils, green and yellow split peas; barley letters), dehydrated onion, Penzey's Ozark Seasoning, and the last of some kale.
We had hamburger steaks and fries.
I'm marinating a chicken to go on the rotisserie later this afternoon.
Spaghetti and meat sauce with garlic toast.
We had leftover turkey, lentils, vegetable, barley soup, served with the rest of the Rustic Sourdough and the loaf of Limpa bread I took out of the freezer.
We also had strawberries--the first of the season were at the farmers' market this morning and I bought two quarts.
Well, if I had any doubts about the need to get a new grill, tonight eliminated them. I had a chicken that was only about 5 pounds, and it took something like 80-90 minutes on the rotisserie. It was good once it was done, though, and we've got plenty of leftovers for tomorrow night.
We wound up eating the strawberry souffle a good half hour before the chicken came off the grill. But as they say, life is short, so eat dessert first!
