What’s for dinner?
Have you ever wondered what people REALLY eat for dinner? Or really what they eat on a given day?
Call me crazy, but I do wonder these things… I don’t know why (it might have to do with taking a nutrition course at my local community college), maybe it’s because I’m a food-a-holic, or because I just love to cook…. Anyhow.. It occurred to me that maybe if I shared what I’ve been making for dinner, it would catch, like a kitchen fire, and others too would share all those yummy things they put in their mouths…
Due to budget constraints we’ve omitted eating OUT from our diet, except for a special weekend brunch or something of that nature. This week the cooking was 100% homemade by me.
So what the HECK are we eating… for dinner?
Sunday: Veggie Enchiladas (black bean & yam) with Spicy Red Sauce & Brown Rice
Monday: Shiitake Mushroom & Pea soup with Rice Noodles & Garden Salad*
Tuesday: Butternut Squash Lasagna & Garden Salad
Wednesday: Creamy Parsnip, Yukon Potato & Leek Soup with Roasted Asparagus & Garden Salad w/ Blue Cheese
Thursday: Zucchini bake (onions, garlic, tomato, a little cheese & lots of zucchini) with Jasmine Rice (this was inspired by the summer’s promise of many little zucchini in our garden).
Friday: New Sammy’s Whole Wheat Pizza with Sun Dried Tomato’s, Ricotta, Spinach and Onion w/ Garden Salad!
*=Garden Salad normally is red or green leaf lettuce mixed with purple cabbage, carrots, red onion, sunflower seed and balsamic dressing, but it does vary daily by what’s in the fridge!
So, what did you eat this week?
