Meal Recap and Weekly Meals (9/22 - 9/25)

Recap of Last Week's Meals


Our favorite meals last week were the chicken kimchi stew and the tomato soup with rosemary garlic parmesan croutons. The fried rice was good too, but there are no pictures... Unfortunately, "Salad Friday" did not work out once again. I had a work meeting on Friday afternoon that ran late, and I realized that there was just not enough time to "experiment." Plus, honestly, I just hadn't planned well enough. I had a head of cabbage (which I ended up sauteing over the weekend to go with a roast), but I didn't have a detailed plan of what to do... Instead of cabbage salad, we had a simple spinach salad and some pasta with sauteed garlic, tomatoes, and Parmesan cheese. Even though it wasn't what I had planned, it was good... :o)

So here are this week's meals:

Tuesday: Spinach salad and salmon cakes.

Wednesday: Carrot/ginger soup. I used to make a carrot/ginger soup a long time ago, but I'm not sure if I still have the recipe. If not, I think I have seen numerous versions on other blogs recently, so I'm sure I can find a recipe. I'll also make some homemade croutons.

Thursday: I think it's time for pizza again. I'll make some more homemade whole wheat pizza dough and experiment with the toppings.

Friday: It's "Salad Friday." I somehow think cabbage salad is not quite meant to be at this point.... So I'll make my Taco Salad.

Question: I have asked this before, and I loved all your answers and got many ideas... So here we go again: What's your favorite salad at the moment?

Be well,
Andrea
