Weekly Menu
I am feeling scholarly. I just wrote my first research paper in a long time. Thankfully, it was only 3 pages, so I don't know if that really counts as research. But I had to look stuff up and list references!
On Friday, I made this stuffed pepper recipe and found it to be pretty decent. We used 1 lb. ground turkey and extra veggies. I found Mark's page on quick game-day appetizers (can't believe I somehow skimmed over it a month ago) while searching for an easy chicken skewers recipe. It has some good and truly fast and healthy ideas for jazzing up some finger food. The chicken skewers were somewhat plain, but were a surprise hit with everyone (even though I used lemon juice instead of lime, only let them soak for 20 minutes, and did them under the broiler). I gave the kids a little bit of dipping sauce ;) -- no HFCS ketchup, soy sauce, mustard, & hot sauce whisked together. We didn't have the shawarma chicken listed last week (crazy name, crazy good -if you like flava), so it is on the menu again.
Here is the plan for this week. Holy links, here we go:
Breakfasts:
paleo banana bread
eggs & turkey sausage
fruit
orange juliuses (with just a bit of raw honey)
Lunch:
California club salad (greens, leftover chicken or turkey, tomato, cucumber, onion, avocado, perhaps sesame seeds, almonds, cheese, dressing, etc.)
-OR- chicken skewers
raw veggies and homemade sour cream ranch dip
fruit
Dinners:
baked Asian-style salmon, broccoli bites, salad
slow cooker turkey breast, roasted squash, salad
cumin spiced slow cook pork lettuce wraps x2
meatloaf, peas x2
shawarma chicken salad x2
Dessert/snacks:
macaroons
crispy almonds
Enjoy!
Grocery trips update coming soon.
