I'm seriously hating cooking right now. Beyond our normal pickiness and eating restrictions, my husband has decided that he's not going to eat any carbs on weekdays until May. So I basically have to cook 3 different meals every day, half of which gets noses stuck up at it.
Monday - Adobo chile acorn squash over salad, grilled chicken, egg noodles
Tuesday - Eggplant masouka (sp?) for the grown-ups, grilled sausages for the kiddos.
Wednesday - I'm going to try to make Asian cabbage wraps. The picture in my W&S cookbook looks amazing but maybe a little beyond my culinary skill. If that fails, I've got a pasta/chicken back-up.
Thursday - @booneybear's halibut with lemon fennel salad, chicken tenders for the kiddos.
Tonight is pasta and meatballs with a salad
Tomorrow will be pineapple chicken in the crockpot
Thursday is leftovers because I have doubleheader volleyball at 7:00 and 8:00
Friday is payday, so I'll want to go out.
Sugar & Spice
Last night: Hummus and more (we grill chicken and saute a bunch of vegetables to put on top of some hummus)
Tonight: Beer (well and some light appetizers)
Tomorrow: Loaded baked potatoes and chef salad
Thursday and Friday: Hoping to get inspiration from this post so I can figure it out..
Tuesday: almond crusted tilapia with carrot fries and salad
Wednesday: sauerkraut and red cabbage with sausage and salad
Thursday: zucchini noodles with meat sauce and salad
Friday: chicken souvlaki with salad

"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”
