Aaaaaand of course it starts to rain as soon as the kids start spring break! I had high hopes for lots of outdoor park time this week. At least we have this fab weather pattern out here called 'sun breaks.' This is a term that I was completely unfamiliar with until making the big move to Seattle. As I type, the room just lit up with beautiful sunlight - and dust motes, but I'm choosing not to look at those. Moving right along...
- Monday - pizza. Maybe I should just omit this bullet point altogether because it's kind of redundant...?
- Tuesday - the roasted red pepper pasta with walnuts and goat cheese got pushed back to this week due to a little girls nite dinner outing. Love when that happens.
- Wednesday - green chile enchiladas, from the freezer. I made these enchiladas (an awesome recipe from mels kitchen cafe) a few weeks ago and just doubled everything but the cheese/sauce. Then I rolled up the tortillas/filling and stuck 'em in a ziplock to use with whatever sauce/cheese combo after thawing.
- Thursday - a chicken strata recipe from Art Smith (chef at Table Fifty-Two in Chicago). I found this in People magazine of all places.. We use broccoli instead of asparagus in this dish - just seems to work better.
- Friday - Stuffed sole filets from Trader Joes and I'm gonna try to convince my husband to eat roasted brussel sprouts as a side dish. My vegetarian friend ordered them when we had our girls dinner out (at Purple Cafe) and I couldn't stop stealing them - want to attempt them at home.
- Saturday - husband sent me the link to this recipe from msnbc for short ribs, so we're gonna give that a go with some brown rice and maybe bok choy
- Sunday - chopped salad (again - I could eat chopped salads almost every day) with chicken, bacon, avocado, red and green onions, tomatoes, blue cheese and my homemade champagne vinaigrette.
