  1. Ok I had to do a little picking in the garden. I picked swiss chard,
    pole beans, tomatoes, hot peppers, and cut a lot of herbs. I'm stumped
    at coming up with something for dinner. It is cooler and promising rain
    so I thought I might use the oven. Ideas are very much welcomed.
    Here's what I"m thinking:

    bread: tomato herbed bread with fresh thyme, rosemary, sage, basil,
    parsley - I can post the recipe if anyone wants it, topped with chive butter

    main dish: stuffed swiss chard rolls - meat (ground pork, beef, or
    turkey, not sure yet but leaning towards the pork), rice, onions,
    mushrooms then rolled into rolls and topped with roasted tomato sauce
    and finally topped with motz. cheese

    veggie: buttered pole beans (?) kind of iffy on this one because I
    think the rolls will be very filling and there is already a fair amount
    of veggies in the rolls & bread but still would be good

    desert: either a walk around the block or a swim or cherry cheesecake
    icecream, can't decide right now but the exercise is winning while we
    eat the icecream 🙂

  2. Sounds good to me. I've made cabbage rolls before, but not chard rolls.
    I imagine they are much the same, but maybe I'll give it a try just for
    variety.

    So, what do you use the hot peppers for ? I usually either make salsa
    or stuff and grill them, but I'm always looking for other ideas.

    Last night we had ribeyes with shallots and mushroom pan sauce and
    broiled asparagus and tomatoes. It is amazing what a little roasting or
    broiling does for a good tomato.
