Most often, I start my week on Monday with a tired-out feeling after the fun of the weekend, and a fridge full of things that don't seem to coordinate or have magically started to go bad, after one day being gone. I also, this week, came home after a long day on Sunday at church and visiting with friends, to find that my zucchini fairy had left a present on my doorstep. How does zucchini fit into what I crave this week--and how can I use it all up without wasting it, in a way my family won't tire of?
This week I'm starting with easy lunch--canned salmon which tastes delicious made into salmon salad, eaten in lettuce wraps with tomatoes and cheese. Then, tonight, vegetables jalfrezi with whatever meat I can scrounge thrown in. I'm using an amalgamation of this recipe from Jamie Oliver and this one from a random person on food.com. I'll post my recipe later on, when I know what I've done and whether it worked well.
Today I also clean out the fridge and evaluate what I have....Chickpeas already boiled and ready for hummus(in a mason jar from last week), cooked pinto beans ready to make into refried beans, and various odd veggies and fruits and ingredients(chutney, anyone?). Maybe the meal plan will be posted on Tuesday....
Fry those zucchini up in lard with some rice flour! Yum!
ReplyDelete:) Will do! That sounds like a great gf option, too, for when I'm missing fried food...
