Friday -cucumber & tomato salad, sausage stuffed pattypan
Weekend - zucchini hummus, peppers, and pita bread, swiss chard with golden raisins (RR p 253), make baby carrots
Monday - Squash and Zucchini Burritos,
Tuesday - Green Rice, baked chicken
Wednesday - Chile Rellenos and Rice and Beans (Make Chiles over weekend, make beans in crockpot in am), make bean baby food.
Thursday Coop - Zucchini Muffins (kid baking)
Green Rice: Clean and slice up some spinach into ribbons (chiffonade), dice and saute an onion. Toast some sunflower seeds. Use about three cups of cooked rice (long grain brown rice is good for this dish).
Mix rice, sunflower seeds, onion and spinach, place in greased casserole. Cover with egg and milk mixture (salt and pepper to taste). Use one egg for each 1/2 cup of milk. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Bake at 350 for an hour, til top begins to brown. If you use brown rice, you have a one dish vegetarian meal with good protein value.

Friday August 27
What was planned: Chile Rellenos with Rice and Beans (make pinto bean baby food in the am for crock pot)
What we had: Chile Rellenos with Rice and leftover refried black beans (canned)
Why: Didn't get the crockpot started in the am.
What Logan ate: 1 cube sweet potatoes, 1 cube green beans
Notes: The Chile Rellenos were a little labor-intensive, but it paid off because they were yummy. RJ ate some and didn't complain that they were spicy (they were mild). I had two CSA ancho chiles and one store-bought anaheim. I liked the ancho chiles better, but both were good. If I were to make again, I would add a little more salt to the batter and I would use at least 1 fewer egg. I don't think they needed that much egg for the batter. Perhaps with bigger peppers, one would, but ours were small. I felt like I was wasting those yummy CSA free-range eggs.
