[quote=Anonymous]I feel like I did pretty well this week with quick dinners that are moderately healthy so I will share:

Sunday we got Moby dicks family takeout and they gave us endless rice so I used that for 3 meals.

Monday — rice with pacific rockfish and peas in purchased tikka masala sauce.  I used a ton of frozen peas — just dumped in half a bag at the end.  I put the fish in the sauce frozen and just let it cook that way.

Tuesday — braised boneless chicken thighs on garlicky sauce.  Steamed broccoli.  Rice. (The garlic sauce was just mashed garlic cloves that I let cook in the braising liquid and then smashed up and boiled the liquid down a little—it went over every right including the broccoli.).

Wednesday — TJ butternut squash ravioli with sage and butter.  Sliced apples on side.

Thursday — beans and cheese and scallion quesadillas with chopped cherry tomato’s and mashed avocado.  Berry smoothies (like virgin daiquiris) on the side.

Friday — homemade salmon sushi with scallions.

Saturday— spaghetti with homemade pesto and chopped tomatos

Hope that gives some ideas!

So far for this week I’m hoping for:

Grilled salmon (marinated from Costco) with orzo and peas

Empanadas with mushroom and manchego or bean and mozarella, maybe a side salad or smoothies

Chicken and bean tacos with tomato and avocado , maybe picked cabbage for topping too but I’m sure the kids won’t eat that.

Spaghetti with homemade sauce and meatballs

Pasta with Italian sausage, cherry tomato’s, arugula, garlic and Parmesan.

I guess not super exciting but that’s where we are with weeknight dinners and teens.  [/quote]
