What's for Dinner, Mon., Feb. 2, 2026

Chicken-cilantro mini-wontons with hoisin sauce.

Noodles with Thai peanut sauce. The peanut sauce is made with coconut milk and red chili peppers.
I've always made my own and dislike making it because I find peanut butter so difficult to work with, although someone gave me the tip to use the noodle water to make the peanut butter easier to work with.

I found this sauce on my ShopRite smart cart venture a couple nights ago. It's Bowl & Basket, so it wasn't even expensive. Fresh cilantro to chop and sprinkle over the noodles, along with toasted sesame seeds.

Kombucha: peach ginger.

Dessert: a couple caramel marshmallow chocolates. Decaf coffee.

Which is to me very like my scrambled tofu with different spices then my normal spice mix; while I enjoyed it, I can make similiar at home. I got garlic naan on the side, I made hot lemonade with some grated ginger to finally finally finish off my lingering sinus/chest cold.
