Sunday - Indian Spiced Slow Cooker Lentils and Roti (vfit recipe rolodex)


Recipes:

Pasta with Delicata Squash, Rainbow Chard, and Tahini 
(I made this one up, so I'l try to write it down).

- Toss sliced delicata squash with olive oil, parsley (I used a handful of fresh parsley chopped up), thyme ( I used fresh), garlic powder, salt and pepper  (I bet fresh garlic would be nice, but I was rationing my limited garlic supply).  Bake for 25 minutes at 400.

- Boil pasta (I used Red Lentil penne)

- Saute Chopped Leeks in Olive oil (I just used the pot I boiled the pasta in once the pasta was draining)

- Add Chard, Salt, Garlic powder, saute until wilted.  Add a splash of lemon juice

- Add a heaping tablespoon of Tahini, a heaping tablespoon of hummus, and a splash of half and half (or cream or milk would probably work, too).  If these amounts don't make a sauce that covers well, add more.  Taste.  If it tastes good, toss in the penne and the squash and mix.  If it doesn't taste good, add something to make it taste better, then add in the penne and squash and mix.  Top with Parmesan Cheese if desired.


For the future: 

Pierogis and Kielbasa (need potatoes)
Taco Tuesday: Enchiladas with Rhubarb Chipotle Sauce
Pad Thai (need tofu and peanuts and sprouts)
Faux chicken pot pie

Other meal ideas:

Rhubarb overnight oats
Rhubarb bars (need walnuts)
Rhubarb Muffins 

Coronavirus SIP Week 4

So far we've been faring well with the one trip to Costco before our Shelter-In-Place (SIP) order started, signing up for a CSA delivery (Farm Fresh to You), and one scary trip to the grocery store for milk, oj, and a few other things.  I'd like to avoid going out again, so I figured some planning ahead might be helpful to use what we already have in the house and then planning ahead to order and obtain other food as needed. 

Here's what we're eating this week! 

Sunday

Ramen with edamame, seaweed, cabbage, carrots, and green onions

Monday

Soak Pinto Beans for Taco Tuesday 

Lemon Dill Cod, Steamed Broccoli, and Baked Potato with sour cream and fresh dill. (Can you tell the dill plant is going crazy in the Aerogarden?)
