Mostly Green Curry Vegetables with Tofu over Coconut Jasmine Rice
This recipe was a delicious win for me! Not all my kids loved it, but I blame that on their immature palates, right?! Maybe it was the tofu...

Chicago Dog Salad
This was a strange concept to me. Basically, it's a Chicago-style hot dog minus the bun and in a salad form. Most of the family liked it, so overall it was a win.
Sweet, Spicy and Tropical: Crab Salad Lettuce Wraps
We started out the new menu plan with a seafood recipe... the result?... no one really cared for it. We used claw meat instead of lump crab meat due to the incredible price ($15.99 for 8 ounces!). Other than that, the crab salad was really runny. It would've been better on crackers or as a taco maybe. The kids didn't really care for the taste and didn't eat their whole wrap.
On a positive note, it looked pretty! I think if you made it with a white fish instead of crab, it would've been a bigger hit.

Week 6 Menu Plan
We have moved... life is gradually getting back to normal... but really, what is "normal"?? With 3 kids on the move, a psychotic dog named Addy, and a somewhat hormonally imbalanced mom and wife, I'm not quite sure what normal is anymore... At least we have a stable man leading us!
We are excited to get back to cooking and Sophie has created a delicious menu plan. We're starting on a Saturday this time around. Here's the plan!
This is not us... but it IS how we feel when we're cooking in the kitchen together! |
