This week, we are all sick. I still managed to cook on two nights though, so I made multiple recipes, and did some catch up on the recipes I missed the first week!
Monday I made spicy potato and lemon casserole. The kids liked the carrots! Not so good when there are so many other ingredients. B didn't eat the turnips. I also made the curried cauliflower and spinach. It was yummy, I loved the mustard seed, but I was the only one who ate this. I don't think either of these recipes were good enough to make again, but I will be keeping mustard seeds in my pantry from now on!
Tonight was a LOT of prep, but I'd say it was worth it!
I made Corn Chowder, Veggie Enchiladas, and Crispy Potato Skins! The corn chowder was delicious. B, the non-soup eater, even ate it! One thing I need to find is a better melting cheese. I had shredded Mexican blend in the fridge, and in both my gratin and my soup it has taken on a "curdled" quality. Strange texture, but still tasty.
Veggie enchiladas were great too. One of my husbands favorite dishes is stuffed bell peppers. He said if I added the veggie crumbles to the enchiladas, they'd be better than my stuffed Bells! That's good news!
The crispy potato skins were fun to make. I'm not sure I'd make the bean salad or fruit slaw with them again though. B said veggie crumbles and cheese, the kids dipped their bare skins in ketchup and mustard. In their dreams, every food is a French Fry! This recipe is great for an appetizer bar, where everyone could make their own! No pics, I finished these off with some buffalo sauce and feta!
A crazy weekend means I probably won't cook again until Monday. I'll be finishing up the recipes from this week!
