I should actually start by saying that last week went extremely well and all of those meals will be done again. Now trying for two weeks in a row. On Sunday I looked through Pinterest to find some recipes that looked good for the week. I am actually going pretty far outside of my comfort range to try and make new and different foods. I am planning on having four different meals and one night of leftovers (same as last week). I also take leftovers to work and Luke eats them as well. I picked out all of the recipes and than Marcus and I went shopping get all of the ingredients- it took us two stops to get everything. We got almost all of the ingredients at Trader Joes but due to their limited selected needed to finish off a few items at Byerly's. Here are my pics for the week.
We had our first night and I started out with the Pad Thai- which I have to admit I was a bit intimated by but it turned out amazing and wasn't too difficult to make.
Here is the final product....
Marcus really loved the meal too!
Week in Review
Follow up: When the week was done I spent some time looking at we ate and deciding what to eat again. Here are the thoughts on it:
- Pad Thai with Veggies and Tofu - Great Recipe will make again
- Roasted Garlic Pasta Salad - This was really bland. We were not excited about this meal and even ended up throwing the left overs away. Not going to make it again.
- Cheesy Enchilada Rice Skillet - Great recipe. This one was super fast and easy to make, as well as the rice is made ahead of time.
- Quinoa Stuff Peppers - Great Recipe- I wasn't sure what I would think about these but loved them. Will make again.
