On Saturday we were supposed to be preparing an Asian salmon bowl. It is one of our daughter’s favorite things we make. Unfortunately she was not feeling well so we decided to push the bowl to Sunday and find something different for us to eat. What we came up with was kind of a hot dog on kind of a bun with a handful of tortilla chips all served on a paper plate.
We had two 4 ounce pieces of smoked turkey sausage. John left his whole but I sliced mine in half length-wise and cooked the pieces in the microwave for 90 seconds. To make my bun I took 1/2 pita and tore it into two equal semi-circles by separating the pita half along the rounded edge. One piece is usually a little thicker than the other. I toasted these briefly and when they came out of the toaster I folded them gently in my hand into the shape of a taco. They will hold that shape as they cool. Be careful not to burn your hand. Mold them as soon as they can be handled safely.
I slid the “hot dogs” into their “buns” and dressed them with mustard, relish, and chopped onions. A handful of tortilla chips completed my dinner paper plate.
So our dinner was not elegant but we had fun sitting on the couch and watching TV with our hot dogs and a glass of very “ordinaire “ wine.
