[quote=Anonymous]20:54 here -- as an example of meals this week we are having:

Monday -- flank steak seared on stovetop with chimichurri sauce (made in small blender while steak cooks) and salad (pre-washed arugula with olive oil and vinegar poured at the table). Add bread for those who want. Older kid hates steak so he will supplement with cheese or yogurt.

Tuesday -- fast-cooking pork and ginger meatballs, which bake in oven for 20 mins. This will be served with gazpacho which I make the night before and chill in fridge, and same arugula salad.

Wednesday -- my work from home day so meal can be a little more elaborate. Italian sausage roasted in oven then sauteed with halved cherry tomatoes and Trader Joes frozen cauliflower gnocchi. Serve with leftover gazpacho or salad.

Thursday -- thin chicken breasts (I buy them pre-sliced thin, an extra dollar per pound but worth it to me to save on food prep) dipped in flour, egg wash, and panko, and shallow-fried on stovetop. Serve with raw broccoli or cucumber.

Friday -- leftovers. Love leftover night. If there aren't enough it's a free-for-all in the fridge -- we can usually turn up hummus, eggs, unused long-keeping veggies like celery or broccoli, or cheese and crackers.[/quote]
