Review from last week:
Friday night was 'zaw pizza and butter lettuce/pistachio salad with Kristin and Craig!
Saturday night was the XO dinner at Rachel's house: chicken skewers, beet salad, Chinese chop salad and Caprese salad (made with peaches - my new favorite)!
Sunday was grilled Tandoori chicken, mashed sweet potatoes and spinach salad with goat cheese, walnuts and a Dijon vinaigrette.
This creamy chicken and kale soup was okay - very healthy, but just okay. I really did like the technique of making this soup "creamy", which was blending olive oil, chopped onion and chicken stock. I think I will use this base for other soups in the future - perhaps a take on Italian Wedding Soup.
On Tuesday we had the most delicious dinner (and relaxing evening) with Denali, Kyle and Oliver! They made 5-spice pork kabobs and rice, and for dessert: Donut shortcake. Denali works for Top Pot - and not only did she come up with this amazing dessert, she sent us home with a box of donuts. !!!!!!!!!!!
Flank and salad:
Mixed up the meal plan and made this Feta + Basil Lentil salad on Thursday. So good! This gal's cookbook is going on my wish list.
Tonight we are having the salsa chicken (and a big, fat Margarita - FRIDAY)!
Plan for next week:
Saturday: Greg is out of town for his friend's 40th birthday in Leavenworth. My mom and I are taking Ben out for dinner and a movie :)
Sunday: Butter Chicken
Monday: Tomato Basil Soup and Spring Green Salad with Lemon Feta Dressing.
Tuesday: Leftovers (I'll be at a staff meeting/dinner).
Wednesday: Blue Apron Meal: Cod & Miso Soba Noodles with Heirloom Cherry Tomatoes & Eggplant
Thursday: Blue Apron Meal: Chicken Milanese with Summer Corn, Tomato and Cucumber Salad.
Friday morning we are headed to the beach for the weekend to celebrate Becca and Jess's wedding! Looking forward to a weekend away with friends!
