Hey ho, it's Kermit the cook here, reporting from the depths of cold grey winter. February just kills me every month. Valentine's day serves as my Obi-Wan-Kanobi, as in save me, you are my only hope. So thus Pink food shall be a part of this week, which makes me a happy hoppy bird - for Valentine's Day, huzzah!
Also, Josh is working nights, so we will be living in a state of zombie brain. This will mean, low maintenance, so definitely not Cafe Rio pork salad. I have heard really good things about the chicken in milk and I have a new dutch oven that needs to be used. Chicken and milk sounds strange, but a good strange.
Meals
salmon patties, squash
Sweet potato kugel with broccoli - Hubso keeled over when he had the kugel, so we must have it again. It was good, but I don't like grating sweet potatoes.
V-day meal:
beet gnocchi with a prosciutto, pomegranate, fennel and arugula salad. Oh, and HOMEMADE Oreos, get down. The beet gnocchi is from a recipe book I checked out called _Apples for Jam_ (p. 148). This is a very sweet cookbook wherein all the recipes are arranged by color, which I find undeniably appealing.
Chili and cornbread - new chili recipe to try from 101 Cookbooks, a great vegetarian cooking blog.
Apple and parsnip soup and challah
Chicken in milk with roasted veg - Jamie Oliver
frozen meal backup - orange chicken and brown rice - Costco.
Looking over this, I am not sure if it is so zombie brain friendly. This always happens.
