Mmmm, food
May. 30th, 2012 07:51 pmSo much for being organized with food posts...I might do daily-ish. If nothing's posted, assume it's a leftover or mac and cheese night, not that I'm making something so awesome I don't want to embarass everyone.
Sunday we did a chef's salad for lunch, since we needed to eat down the produce. Salad mix, carrots, grape tomatoes, red and green pepper, lots of cucumber (we're swimming in them), last of the celery, a few strips of turkey, cheese, egg, avocado. Mmmm. Dinner was this great mango and black bean salad that the lady found (we're swimming in mangoes from the CSA).
Monday was stir fry. Marinated a little chicken in teriyaki sauce, then fried up that and mushrooms, sugar snap peas, green beans, peppers, Napa cabbage, broccoli. Very green but very good. Really, you can throw just about anything into a stir fry and have it work.
Tuesday: buffalo chicken wraps! cut up chicken breast, fry in very hot oil until browned, toss in buffalo sauce and put on wrap with thin sliced tomato, lettuce, bleu cheese. Mmmm.
Tonight we started with more sugar snap peas, dipped in soy sauce with a little hot chili oil and garlic powder. Then we went for my sister's zucchini lentil skillet recipe. This is tasty; the combination of lentils and soy sauce is fantastic:
Cook 1c lentils in 2c water until just tender; drain. Saute 1 chopped onion in about a tablespoon of oil. Add drained lentils and 2 sliced zucchini, saute about 5 minutes. Add 2 sliced tomatoes on top (canned OK but sliced fresh is best), sprinkle on 1c cheese. Sprinkle with 1/2t garlic powder, 1T soy sauce, 1/4t salt (1/2t if you're more into salt), 1/4t pepper. Cover and steam until tomatoes are tender.
