We're having BLTs and a noodle soup made with chicken broth and korean black bean paste.
Last night we made tacos with spanish rice, three kinds of tortillas, lettuce, cheese, and salsa. (we used beef last night, but I made something similar earlier in the week and used black beans instead of meat).
The night before that I made chowder with tilapia and imitation crab, the soup base was lobster base by Better Than Bouillon and evaporated milk added to sautéed veggies in bacon fat (I ate the bacon, shhhh! Don't tell!) The leftovers were served for Sunday brunch with toast and crackers.

pan crisped sweet potato hash browns. (run sweet potato through the food processor or a box grater, add sliced onion, and brown). Served with baked chicken breast fillets (flavor however you want), I like spinach salad with tomato, red onion, cuccumber and grapes. I top with balsamic, olive oil, peppercorn, and dijon mustard.

Takes about 15 minutes from start to finish. Bon appetite.

Yeah ... We're going with processed food tonight. I've been sick for a week now, and it's gonna be one step above takeout. Turkey kielbasa, Kraft Mac n cheese, and something green.

My husband is coming home late tonight so our toddler and I have voted easy but fun. Poached eggs with french toast sandwiches. We'll split the sandwich and have an egg each. Delicious and quick.

I made this last night.
Just get a Salmon fillet.
And drizzle extra virgin olive oil on it, squeeze some lemon on it, put some dill sprigs on it, and sprinkle with sea salt and ground pepper if you want.
Put it on foil, on a baking pan, and stick it in the oven.
Fish cooks fast.
You can have dinner in 1/2 hour from prep to finish.
EASY!
Uses few ingredients most people have on hand anyway.
Good.
My family likes this and in fact, they want to eat this every weekend. So I make it every weekend. They don't get tired of it.

And just make a salad with whatever you have on hand.
And maybe some Basmati rice or whatever starch you want.

Tonight might be baked pork chops, brown rice, and broccoli or brussels sprouts with fruit for "dessert". We might also finish off our leftover garlic bread and have a salad.

We have college night at the school so we have to be quick tonight.

Yesterday I made a pot roast with veggies and we will have the leftovers. I start it about 11am on top of my stove and tend to it all afternoon, putting veggies in about an hour before we eat. YUMMY!

Night before last was bbq grilled chicken breasts, baked beans and corn.

Tomorrow is another hurried night and will be pasta with my home made marinara and some home made Hot Italian sausages to die from from Jimmy's Food Market in Dallas.

Enjoy!

Arroz Verde
SERVES 4
This Mexican holiday rice is adapted from Aída Gabilondo's Mexican Family Cooking (Fawcett Columbine, 1986).

1 small white onion, peeled and quartered

2 poblano chiles, deveined, seeded, and quartered

3 cloves garlic, peeled

1/2 cup fresh cilantro

1/2 cup chard (green is best, but red swiss works... just turns things a little brownish)
2 cups Chicken Stock

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 cup basmati rice

2 tbsp. vegetable oil

1. Place onions, chiles, garlic, cilantro, chard and 1 cup stock in a blender. Blend, strain, and season with salt and pepper.
2. Rinse and drain rice. Heat oil in a  heavy pot over medium-low heat. Add rice and sauté, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Add sauce and remaining 1 cup stock. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove pot from heat, but keep covered, allowing rice to cook for another 10 minutes

I put the crockpot on this morning. Threw in sausage, zucchini, summer squash, onions, carrots, garlic, and tortellini (sp?). I already had a "taster" at lunch and it was delicious. Might make some corn bread to go with it.
