Tuesday was brown basmati rice, sesame broccoli and marinated chicken breast from Trader Joe's. Last night was turkey bacon, a cheese and onion omelet and oven roasted home fries. I also made and froze some twice baked potatoes.
Tonight is a lot of little bites with all except the meat already made. I love having lots of small tastes of a variety: chana dal (chickpeas from the steam table at the Indian market), quick pickled onion, young mustard greens (from the garden) cooked with a bit of coconut milk and garlic, cornbread made with egg whites/one whole egg/pumpkin/roasted onion/fresh basil), tofu shiraitaki noodles with a bit of lean sausage and heaps of spinach and mushrooms and garlic, lean beef (top round well trimmed) cut in small bits/marinated with tangerine zest, garlic powder, touch of olive oil + Dijon mustard and quickly broiled, and homemade salsa and cilantro chutney to spice up some of the bites.
Making a special dinner for Valentine's Day. We are not big into celebrating but I love an excuse to make something new. So it is Italian Wedding Soup, Chicken Marsala, smashed red potatoes and roasted broccoli.
Since I'll have a 1/2 pound of ground beef leftover from the soup and a pound of ground turkey I'll probably make chili or taco meat on Tuesday and the rest of the week will probably be leftovers.
