f  turkey burgers, fries

s  chicken sausage + veggie pasta, salad

w  leftovers

th  veggie and bean pasta, salad

f  burgers + fries

s  salmon burgers, broccoli

s  pork, sweet potatoes, green beans

the tikka masala was a disaster. i don't want to talk about it ;) i made crackers; burned 'em and oversalted 'em. the highlights, however, were peanut butter chocolate chip banana cookies and all the other meals last week (except the tikka). really, though, the enchiladas were super tasty, the turkey burgers are always a hit, wes cooked the steak perfectly, the sweet potatoes melted in my mouth, and the veggie and white bean pasta turned out unexpectedly well. so, all was not lost! looking forward to the spicy peanut dish this week and figuring out a tasty dessert.

Happy 2011!

The dinners the week of Christmas didn't come to fruition b/c we had a sick baby, then we got sick, so we didn't really eat anything that week :/ We eventually did, but nothing exciting: cereal.

I'm happy to report we are all healthy and have our appetites back, and I'm ready to cook again! We were so beat from the 9 hour drive today (and 6 hour drive yesterday) that when we got home we just had a hot bowl of peanut butter/honey oatmeal (oh, and that was about the only thing in the cupboard).

Here's what's on the stove this week:

m  chicken tikka masala, rice

t  turkey chili, cornbread

w  thai red curry tofu, rice

th  chicken and zucchini pasta, salad

f  leftovers

s  salmon burgs, fries, salad

s  naan pizza, salad
