Week Menu 2/14-2/20

Hope last week went well for everyone. I didn't make all four meals last week, the salmon will be tonight. Like I said things come up, but by using the the menu plan I am still able to avoid wasting food. This is going to be a busy week, but I know I can get at least three good meals in there, and I always have a couple back up meals ready whenever. Well lets get started with another delicious week.

Meal One: Potato Leek Soup and Salad (it's going to be rainy on Mon/Tues)

Meal Two: Fish Tacos w/ radish slaw

Meal Three: Cajun chicken with avocado salsa, asparagus and salad

Potato Leek Soup: I use a pretty generic recipe for potato soup (just go to foodtv.com). I use less onion and add the leeks in at the same time. I also top the soup with crumbled turkey bacon or prosciutto and cheddar cheese

Fish Taco: Season white fish with old bay and pepper then bake at 350 for about 20 minutes (until flaky, also any seasoning will do). Heat corn tortillas in very hot pan, individually. For radish salsa, thinly slice one bunch of radishes and three scallions. Mix together with one diced jalapeno (seeded), salt, pepper, dash of olive oil and juice of 1-2 limes. Top each tortilla with some fish, radish slaw and shredded cabbage.

Cajun Chicken: Season boneless/skinless chicken breasts with cayenne, pepper and salt (as much or little as you like) then either saute in small amount of oil over med/high heat until int temp is 165, or grill on the george foreman (which is what I do). Top with Avocado salsa (diced avo, diced red onion, salt pepper, and juice of 1-2 limes).

Enjoy this weeks meals, I can say I know they are all healthy and delicious. Have a great week, and make sure you sit down with your family to eat these delicious meals. This country has started to really stray from the family dinner, lets all do our part in bringing it back, it really does help bring calm to the end of the day.
