So it's getting chilly. I associate a few things with the cold weather, cozy sweaters, soup, casseroles, the desire to play Christmas music a bit too early, lots of pumpkin bread, to name a few. So I wanted some new 'cold weather' recipes...
Monday: I have never cooked with quinoa, but apparently all the healthy people are eating it and I wanted to jump on the bandwagon. So here I have Lemon Parley Quinoa Cakes, why not.
Tuesday: Last week, I made a super simple one skillet meal and loved that it only took me 15 mins to make dinner... and the boys ate it! So I found this really easy casserole... 1 skillet, 1 casserole pan. And I think my burrito lover husband will like Burrito Casserole.
Wednesday: I love veggies. I could really do without meat most of the time, this Veggie Pasta 'Lasagna' Bake looks warm, and healthy (can go easy on the cheese) and very filling! I think I'll switch the rice pasta with regular wheat pasta.
Thursday: 'Pantry veggie soup'. See recipe below. And I love Jewels Rosemary and Olive Oil bread...mm mm mm.
Friday: Southwest Chicken Stew for tonight!
Saturday: This is a great hearty, healthy, good for leftovers meal: Baked Penne with Roasted Veggies
Sunday: I need a break man. Left-overs or ordering a pizza.
