What's for Dinner, Tues., March 3 2026

I have soup in the works, but I don't think it will be ready tonight. If it is, great. If not, I'll have this vegetable pizza I've also been putting together.

I'm using Mollie Katzen's zucchini crust pizza recipe. On top, I'll put vegetarian sausage crumbles, roasted peppers, red onion, black olives, and sliced cherry tomatoes. Parmesan, of course, and freshly sliced basil leaves over the top.

Maybe a small green salad on the side with cucumbers and sweet onion.

Kombucha: blueberry.

Dessert: slice of apple mascarpone strudel.

With steamed asparagus. I brown the chicken in sage butter, then bake it with cinnamon/pistachios/dried fruit rice pilaf. I think we have some dried figs.

Steam-fried in evoo and veggie broth: chopped onion, red bell pepper, broccoli florets, sliced mushrooms, snow peas and minced garlic. When done I added sliced water chestnuts, air fried tofu cubes and my own sesame-ginger-garlic sauce and red pepper flakes before I tossed everything with cooked whole wheat spaghetti. Cheers!🥂

Julia's recipe. It's just the leftover taster; I put 4 quarts in canning jars for the pantry. We had a big lunch (Culvers).

I like having it in the pantry. Really late nights, I can heat it up, get a salad together, put some bread and cheese into the soup bowls and broil it till toasty. 15 minutes, tops. Convenience food at its best.
