What's For Dinner Favorites-Monday

[Guest guest]

Here's what we are having tonight.

 

Vegetarian Shish-Kebabs

Left over mashed potatoes (normally I serve these over brown rice because

that is more nutritious, but I have mashed potatoes in my fridge from three

days ago and want to use them up)

Salad

Wheat Bread

 

For the Shish-Kebabs I'll cut up portabello mushrooms, onions, peppers,

zucchini, asparagus and tomatoes. I don't have any tofu on hand (and am not

making one more store run LOL). If I were not serving them with mashed

potatoes I'd also include red potatoes, which I cook until very tender and

cut in quarters. Marinate the veggies in the following: 1/2 cup oil (I use

canola), 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 4 1/2 tbsps tamari soy souce, 2

1/2 tbsp oriental sesame oil, 1 scallion sliced very thinly, 3 garlic cloves

minced, 1 1/2 tsps ground ginger. Sometimes I put the veggies on skewers,

but more often just place them on a baking tray with a lip (to hold the

liquid) to broil. This meal is short on protein, but we'll have that at

other meals during the day. Plus, I'll put some leftover black beans in the

salad.

I forgot to add that the recipe for the marinade comes from Quick Vegetarian

Pleasures by Jeanne Lemling (lemon-soy marinade).
