Lots of onion, celery, & green pepper in mix & topped with yellow banana peppers.

Yummy

(I need to find a copycat Subway Italian Herb & Cheese Bread recipe. I quit going there because there was SO little fish on the bread!)

Enjoy!

I was at the Korean green grocer and saw those banana peppers. I stood there transfixed with them. I started imagining them on a TUNA FISH sandwich. I didn’t get them because I have so many other kinds of peppers at home. Now I fantasize about this sandwich!

In my experience, you may as well go back & get them because they will haunt you until you do.

Sammie is also exceptional with black olives & lettuce and/or spinach on it. Now I want another one. And much much better on Subwat-type Italian Herb & Cheese bread. Omg that bread is delic!!! Had a whole one for early lunch & a half for dinner.

8. Vegetable Potato Curry

Steam-fried in evoo and veggie broth: chopped onion, red bell pepper, celery, carrots, scallions, minced garlic and ginger. When almost done I added sliced mushrooms and sliced broccoli florets. I added air-fried golden potato nuggets and some chickpeas. Finally I poured a sauce made of 3T of Patak’s curry paste and veggie broth. I continued cooking until most of the sauce was absorbed by the veggies and potatoes. Garnished with chopped golden raisins. Cheers! 🥂

over egg noodles, broccoli for a side. Dessert, for me anyway, was leftover citrus salad from the church potluck (various oranges, grapefruit and tangerine with honey and ginger).

https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/260109/instant-pot-chicken-cacciatore/ My son cooked this in our Instant Pot, said it was pretty easy.
