Black Pepper Tuna Tataki with Edamame Succotash and Marinated Cabbage.*
There is a dipping sauce on the side called "Grapefruit Ponzu."
Kombucha: cherry ginger.
Dessert: Decaf with almond biscotti.
*Recipe is from my cookbook Dishing Up New Jersey, by John Holl.

(23,535 posts)I fried the last 2 slabs of the tofu I had marinated in buttermilk. I cut the slabs into cubes and made a spicy peanut butter sauce. Use chunky peanut butter, soy sauce, ginger, cayenne, and browned some onion. When the sauce was ready, I put some of the tofu cubes in and topped with some frozen celery. Lots of flavor, all kinds of crunch.
I had it with white rice and noodles and veggies from the soup I made yesterday.
Frozen blueberries and a piece of dark chocolate for dessert.

This will be a great addition to my Americana cookbooks...
BTW... My grandfather was once upon a time the lighthouse keeper for the Cape May light...

(10,781 posts)First grill-out of the season!
To a pound of ground local lamb Ive added some cumin, turmeric, ras al hanout, chopped cilantro, a big clove of grated garlic, an egg and some bread crumbs. Smushed it all around and formed 5 oblong burgers, which have been chilling in the fridge.
Also grilling up some eggplant rounds. All served with a fresh-mint and lemon yogurt sauce, white rice, and a tomato/cucumber/basil salad. Pinot noir, also.
Later, a brownie beneath some coffee ice cream while we watch a show

(2,228 posts)Got a couple Quorn roasts (a mushroom-based seitan-type thingie) on the cheap and had a proper Sunday dinner-type meal tonightroasted with tatties and carrots and with a nice brown gravy.
Pretty respectable for something that took hardly any effort.

Ive had those Quorn cutlets before. Really liked them.
