What was on my Menu Monday***




Butternut squash soup***













Asian tuna salad panini ***

on a bed of arugula ***













It was delicious!!!


























Dinner was served up in about 45 minutes!!












Asian Tuna Salad


adapted from Fine Cooking Magazine


2 cans chunk white tuna in water, drained

2-3 Tablespoons mayonnaise

2 teaspoons soya sauce

zest from 1/2 lemon

juice from 1/2 lemon

2 teaspoons sesame seeds toasted

1 Tablespoon chopped fresh mint


Mix all together. Split a roll of your choice... I used an Ace baguette, lay down a bed of arugula, top with tuna salad and heat in your panini press or in a pan until warmed through.

I love squash soup and don't know where I got my original recipe but I think I'll check out the Gormet magazine and see if I can once again find it. What a wonderful looking meal. Pat

Hi Janine,

Thanks for commenting on my LIM card of last week. I visited you just yesterday...in a rush. I gotta tell you I was disappointed not to see your butternut squash soup recipe, as I have two languishing in my frig. Did you develope your own recipe or can you share a link? You do know I enjoy your kitchen craftiness too.

Haven't seen any recent pics of your new business place. All is well I hope.
Cyber Hugs.
