What's for Dinner, Sun., Mar. 29, 2020
Pizza made with multi-grain crust.
We like to put an egg on the pizza. The first pizza is before it went in the oven, the second upon taking it out.
He had to put other types of cheese on the pizza because we had everything but mozzarella.
I also made a salad out of iceberg, carrots, radishes, red onion, and cherry tomatoes. French dressing for me, vinaigrette for the RG.
Dessert will be oatmeal-cranberry-walnut cookies and ginger tea.
