Menu Monday: Nourishing Body and Soul

 


                Welcome to another strange week of dinner ideas!! (Boy that’s inspiring, isn’t it??)

Monday: Cobb-ish Salad

I forgot to boil eggs, and to be honest, I’m not sure what it is about a cobb salad that makes it cobb. Is it the egg? If so, then this was a fail. But it was so good. I air fried chicken thighs (because Ryan loves them) and added mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, avocado, and pepitas. So good!

Tuesday: Chicken and Broccoli Sheet Pan

This was a fast, easy dinner. I used two bags of frozen broccoli and some boneless skinless chicken tenders and baked them on a sheet pan for about a half hour. I used to really love this combo, but it’s not hitting the mark for me right now. Anyone else go through seasons when food just kind of falls flat, even I it’s something you used to love?

Wednesday: Ground Turkey and Bell Peppers with a Side Salad

This is an easy meal. Ground turkey with Italian seasoning…chopped bell peppers…cooked on the stove top! I added a little side salad of spinach and chopped peppers. Easy and good! (The meal also made a bunch, so we were able to have leftovers several times.)

Thursday: Fajitas!!

I actually never ate dinner on Thursday, so let me tell you about my lunch! I ate out at a Mexican restaurant with a friend, and I ordered chicken fajitas. I love arroz con pollo at a Mexican restaurant, but I know all the cheese and rice isn’t great for me, so fajitas for the win!

Friday: Leftover Ground Turkey and Bell Peppers

Told you this was great for leftovers!

Saturday: Chicken and Green Beans

UTTERLY failed to take a picture of this one. I was at my class reunion, which was catered, and I totally forgot to take a picture of my plate. I had chicken breast with green beans and a little bit of salad.

Sunday: Grilled Fish and Steamed Green Beans

Big thanks to Ryan for grilling up a bunch of fish for us so we could eat for a few days! So tasty. Grilled tilapia is about the only kind of fish I can handle!

Thanks, Donna! I will tell them you asked about them. Mom is doing well, and Dad is struggling, but still has his sense of humor!

I bet that chicken and broccoli sheet pan would be great with cheese!

I bet you are right! Cheese does solve a multitude of problems.
