Meal updates from last week:
We loved the tortilla soup and the Mediterranean bowl, I didn’t end up making the turkey burgers with cauliflower mash as we went out for dinner mid-week. We also took the kids downtown for dinner on the weekend, we ate pizza at Posto, the food was amazing. We ordered their romaine salad and a white pizza with wild mushrooms, spinach and truffle oil. Last night we were lucky to go to friends to celebrate a belated Thanksgiving. The food was so delicious, it was my first time eating turkey done on the bbq, and it was just as good as the oven. I took two pumpkin pies, blondie brownies and an autumn chopped salad.
This week we will be eating at home Monday-Thursday, we don’t have plans Friday but are heading to a Halloween party on Saturday with our kids.
- Sheet pan roasted veggies with Italian sausage. I diced a sweet potato and drizzled with olive oil, I added the sausage and cooked in a 425 oven for 20 minutes. Then I added small broccoli florets and roasted for another 5-7 minutes. While cooking I made a simple vinaigrette of: honey, Dijon, red wine vinegar and olive oil. After removing pan from oven I placed the veggies in the bottom of a large bowl, topped with the sausage and drizzled with the dressing. Delish. You can find a similar recipe here.
- Turkey meatloaf from @foolproofliving I will serve this with mashed potatoes and steamed beans.
- Vietnamese lemongrass noodle bowl from @gimmesomeoven this recipe uses chicken as the protein, but I am going to use shrimp instead.
- Greek power bowls from @delish this is another one bowl meal, and one that has all of my favourite things!
I don’t have any plans for baking this week as I spent the weekend making pie dough and then baking two pumpkin pies. If you are looking for a great pie dough recipe, simply search the blog and you will find my gramma’s tried and true recipe! Simplify your life with grocery list 109
