Hi ladies,
No promises I will be able to post anything weekly, but I will chime-in as much as possible . I often plan my meals on the fly after seeing what meat is on sale in the store. But, this often ends up drab and I enjoy adding in your ideas. However, I am definitely going to start wondering the minute Jennifer stops posting....HA!
Jennifer, I would love your Chili Tilapia recipe. I was sold on the 15 minute part, and I can never think of any exciting way to cook Tilapia! Please share when you have the time.
Kathy, we eat char and kale weekly here. Mostly because I am lazy, I usually saute with garlic and chicken broth. Easy and the kids actually like it a lot. I know, my kids are not normal!:-) Did I mention I don't feed them anything else?
My recent shopping gripe is the exorbitant price of lunch meat that I often throw out because it goes bad before a week. So, tonight I am cooking a ham (1/3 the price per pound) with the hopes of lots of sandwich-making leftovers!
Monday: Ham, rosemary dinner rolls, sauteed kale, salad
Tuesday: Lentil and rice stuffed peppers, salad
Wednesday: Teriyaki pork with Asian slaw
Thursday: leftovers
Friday: Brazilian Black Bean Stew over rice, salad
Saturday: Pizza ala Kathy's dough recipe
Have a great week!
Love,
Ann Marie

Woo Hoo! Thanks for posting, Ann Marie . . . I LOVE having some action on the food blog! There are sooooooo many weeks when I am trying to plan my menus and really need some inspiration. Otherwise my weeks are "fish on the grill, hamburgers, tacos, homemade pizza, breakfast for dinner, pasta ala fridge" ad nauseum. I would also love the tilapia recipe, Jennifer, when you get the chance . . . for all the reasons Ann Marie mentioned above! THANKS!! :)
ReplyDeleteP.S. I also saute chard and kale with garlic, Ann Marie . . . though I have never done it with the extra step of chicken broth. And amazingly, 2 of my 4 love it too . . . Katie and Luke. The other 2? Not so much . . . :)
ReplyDeleteSo many things cooking ...
ReplyDeleteLet's see:
1. Will post chili tilapia recipe if it tastes good one more time. I am hoping the first two times weren't flukes. That being said-- it usually starts with simmering olive oil, garlic, chili flakes or chili sauce, lime juice and zest ... then tossing the fish in to the pan.
2. Kale and swiss chard Garlic, for sure. I like to squeeze a lemon and add paprika. I will have to try the chicken broth.
Mark blended chicken and kale for Monica and she digs it. She was a little gassy at first though. Now, I haven't noticed...
3. Cooking your own ham-- brilliant!
