MONDAY //

Labor Day | cookout with friends where I brought this tortellini salad

TUESDAY //

Caramelized Pork Tacos w Pineapple Salsa
notes : used pork tenderloin and omitted the jalapeno. two thumbs up.
Parmesan Zucchini + Corn
notes: quick, easy, winning. i used TJ’s frozen corn.
Chips + Salsa

WEDNESDAY //

Simple Summertime Basil Chicken Curry
notes: used frozen corn and TJ’s thai red curry sauce. omitted jalapeno + cilantro. sometimes these half baked harvest recipes need just a bit of editing 😉 super colorful, flavorful and fresh. this was a keeper.
Basil Ginger Coconut-Lime Rice
notes: omitted the ginger. also, her rice cooking method is the best.

THURSDAY //

California Chicken, Veggie, Avocado + Rice Bowls
notes: this recipe is a stand-by around our house.
I typically just grill the chicken without skewering (the marinade is delicious.)
I prefer the convenience of cooking the veggies on my grill pan.
Subbed gorgonzola cheese for the blue.
To simplify, use pre-made guacomole

FRIDAY //

Burgers + Fries (TJ’s frozen section)
Salad w  Spring Garden dressing
notes: this dressing is so fresh and yummy. think a healthy version of ranch 🙂

SATURDAY //

date night. ordered pizza for the kids.

SUNDAY //

Hearty Tomato Soup w Lemon + Rosemary
notes: omitted the red pepper to keep it mild for the kids.
The lemon creme fraiche is a MUST 🙂

Cheese + Crackers to munch on while soup was cooking…
