Meal Planning: January 13th - 19th

Review from last week:

Grilled Tandoori Chicken with Couscous salad.  Really delicious and a fun new recipe find.


I was feeling super awesome after making biscuits for the first time and having success!!  And Greg made sausage and sage gravy to go with them - #breakfastgoals


Carne Asada (Trader Joe's) with guacamole, ranchero cheese and slow roasted cherry tomatoes.  With margaritas in on a cold January day.  The best.


Blue Apron Meal: Barramundi (a fish I had never even heard of and was a little too fishy for us), with roasted sweet potatoes and an awesome kale salad.  I'm ALL about kale these days.  This one had a simple dressing of mashed avocado, a little citrus juice, diced jalapeno for a kick, olive oil and salt and pepper.  LOVED it and will use this dressing a bunch going forward.


I thought this was going to be such a strange dish when I looked at the ingredients, but it ended up being SO SO good.  Kale tossed with labneh cheese, roasted brussels/carrots/red onion, cooked couscous, fried cheese, topped with sliced almonds.  YUM.


These ginger-marinated steaks with stir fried vegetables and rice were the winning dish from Top Chef a few weeks ago.  SO good!


Plan for next week:

Saturday: Having some friends over for dinner.  I'm making herb cream cheese and bacon stuffed chicken breasts and a Browned Butter Banana Bundt Cake (each from a cookbook).

Sunday: BLT Salmon Salad with Cilantro Dressing

Monday: Spaghetti Squash with chicken sausage (throw together meal)

Tuesday: Leftovers

Wednesday: Clam Spaghetti 
Thursday:
Thai Peanut Sweet Potato Noodles with Roasted Tofu

Friday: Leftovers
