Supper/Dinner Time! What's on the menu ?

I guess I'll make portabellos with noodles and gravy and some kind of veg.
I miss potatoes. I'm so used to getting them cheap on sale. Their prices went up and haven't gone down at all! I never thought I'd want to grow potatoes, but now I do!
My son liked it, he likes noodles and gravy. If I had potatoes they'd have been mashed well, and portabellos & onions, mixed veg, and potatoes & gravy, would have all been separate.
Update: Remembered I had a can of french fried onions. They made it sooo good!

I'm going to make some potato salad today. I prefer red potatoes with a nice tangy Dijon and mayo dressing. I usually incorporate some pickle juice in there for additional flavour. My second salad will be a fresh fennel & mint slaw. The star of tonight's dinner will be some fresh oyster mushroom clusters, pan seared into BBQ steaks.

I plan on making enough for leftovers. Even the mushrooms are tasty the next day. I should have a jar of pickled beets hiding somewhere to go with it.

I love mint, but a word of advice for anyone that gardens. Mint is like a crazy weed, which most of you probably already know. I thought morning glory was bad. Come to think of it my sage is quite aggressive too.

Living on the western edge of the known world, I'm always late for supper!😜
Tonight D is concocting some sort of veg Alfredo with gnocchi, mushrooms and spinach. I'll post back after the meal.

After meal edit: Really good. He added some mushroom powder and fresh herbs from outr little balcony garden to the soy milk base. It came out like a creamy Italian garlic gravy, with the spinach mushrooms and and a redbell pepper.
For an omnivore, he is becoming a damfine vegan chef!
❤❤❤

I made soy curls with a marinade that tasted like a cross between barbecue and teriyaki. I used this recipe from the Edgy Veg, with some modifications/tweaking. This is a keeper. I made a soy curls wrap with vegan Parmesan, red onions, pepper rings and a dab of vegan mayo spiced with sriracha sauce. So delicious!
 
A steamed cauliflower & potato salad (served at room temperature) with a grainy mustard dressing, yeast flakes and smoked
Cornish sea salt. I'm lucky that my friend had some mustard in her fridge as you can't find any mustard in any of the super/hypermarkets over here. Apparently it's due to Canada's drought.

I have raspberries and also a water melon for dessert.

Cast iron orzo, chickpea, blistered grape tomatoes, peppers, onion, garlic, spinach and lots of spices.
With green olives on top.
Those both sound really good! Don't know I don't cook like that much anymore
I like the idea of the cauliflower & potato salad. I do like they go together, whether mashed, or in curry. I should try a salad--I guess the grainy mustard dressing was like a viniagrette? Mine would be

I toasted some tortilla chips with Daiya cheddar and had with the baked beans and soy chorizo. Can't wait for them to be gone :laughing:

Oh I’ll have to try this sauce…I need something other than the Filipino barbecue.
