Around here some are counting down the days left of school and are ready for summer! I too am ready for lazier mornings and more relaxed evenings. This weekend felt like summer...beautiful days and lots of activities.
Over the week, I was finally able to fill my planters. Some are filled with different flowers and plants and some have a variety of herbs. I love being able to add the fresh herbs to our meals. Now we just have to keep the groundhogs away from the deck!
After celebrating my oldest son's birthday and indulging in extra sweets this weekend, I am ready for a basic and clean diet this week. The whole family will benefit as well!
This week at a glance...
Monday: Meatless Monday- pesto pasta and mixed greens salad. I'm making the pesto with basil, kale, cilantro, olive oil, walnuts and Parmesan cheese. The cilantro adds a nice flavor and I personally love it's smell.
Tuesday: Now for the meat--3- Ingredient meatloaf with rosemary mashed potatoes and roasted broccoli and cauliflower.
Wednesday: homemade chicken nuggets, brown rice, fresh cut veggies and fruit.
Thursday: grilled salmon, quinoa, and strawberry spinach salad.
Friday: homemade sub sandwiches, fresh veggies, hummus, and fruit for our school outdoor movie and picnic!
Saturday: sweet Italian chicken sausages on the grill with onions, peppers, potatoes, and salad.
Sunday: planning on some form of fish and waiting to see what is on sale!
As always, if anything sounds interesting and you'd like the recipe, please contact me.
Enjoy all. Happy eating!
Donna
