What's for Dinner, Mon., July 4, 2016

[NJCher]

I made an old favorite today: turkey-cherry salad with toasted almonds on top. I serve it on a wrap with chopped lettuce. The turkey is from a rotisserie roast I bought at the store. In addition to the dried cherries, I also put in raisins.

So, it will be a nice, easy meal this evening. Dessert is a piece of Toblerone chocolate pie.

Now, to scout out some more fireworks!

1. Barbecued hamburgers and corn on the cob, of course

2. Grilled ribeye

Grilled corn on the cob, too. Classic spud salad and Caesar salad. Strawberries for dessert.



ps: I got shanghai'd into doing the grilling yesterday at the shin-dig. The BBQ bacon-wrapped shrimp came out better than I hoped. (I haven't cooked on charcoal in decades, but it got applauses.) I didn't mind being drafted, because they kept really good wine flowing my way.

5. Grilled ribeye here too

for my husband's birthday feast. I made a nice chimichurri to go with it, and found this while googling what to do with the extra sauce:

We also had potato salad and fresh broccoli, and hope soon to have a little room for key lime pie for dessert.

6. Oysters on the half shell

Salad, and flatbread. Yum.

I was going to grill but all day cleaning out the garage wore me out. Now i'm enjoying an ice cold martini.
