Weekly Menu

Sundays are my big day to cook and we started it off right this morning! Here is a picture of breakfast



Simple and Delish - it is my take on perhaps a hash equivalent except cleanse style (meaning no potatoes). We took some ground turkey yesterday and mixed it with some thyme, salt, pepper, cayenne, onion powder, and garlic powder. We usually just bake or pan fry with a bit of olive oil into little sausage patties to be able to make a tasty breakfast on busy days.

So the mock hash is 3 sausage patties chopped up, sauteed with 1 artichoke heart (leftover from this week), 1 tomato and 1/4 roasted red onion. Then fry 2 eggs and serve on top. Delicious way to start the day with good vegetables and protein.

Lunch was also tasty and the leftovers will be lunch for the next few days for each of us. It was a delicious roast chicken which we brined before roasting this time, with a HUGE medley of veg roasted along side it (brussel sprouts, cauliflower, carrots, onion, garlic and summer squash). We had an arugula salad with avocado and balsamic vinegar on the side.


Here is the menu for this dinners this week:
Monday: Ground turkey kebabs with stewed okra in tomatoes and onion and grilled radicchio
Tuesday: Quinoa salad with basil, baked chicken, tomatoes, and zucchini
Wednesday: Roast chicken with brown rice, salad and roasted cauliflower
Thursday: Meatball soup with kale
Friday: Lentil soup with kale, tomatoes and zucchini
