weeknight meals

we are officially back to school,

and that means official dinnertime.

i started this week with a meal plan.

each person got to choose one dinner.

also, i have decided that we'll have

soup every friday night.

here's how our week of dinners looked:

{only four since school started tuesday}

tuesday: big salad

spinach, romaine, arugula, poached eggs, beets, broccoli, onion,

peas, cheese, avocado, celery, cucumber, and this dressing.

wednesday: yum bowl

a base of mixed salad greens,

beans, rice, cheese, super sauce, salsa, avocado

{plus leftover beets & broccoli from the previous night}

thursday: panini

french baguette, fresh mozzerella, heirloom tomatoes,

basil, olive oil, salt, pepper.

friday: tomato soup

roasted:

tomatoes, leeks, garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper

simmered in the pot with:

bean broth and a little "better than bouillon"

then blended with my immersion blender

tomatoes, leeks, garlic before roasting

tomatoes, leeks, garlic after roasting

a dinner plan makes me happy.
