Weeknight Dinners: April 10-14, 2017

April 9, 2017 By msmart 2 Comments

MONDAY Since we are spending Sunday afternoon at a Little League carnival, I’m thinking we’ll all need some nutritional redemption. Like a soup full of beans, lentils and vegetables. Enter this beans and greens soup from Bon Appetit. I’ll be using organic canned beans and garbanzos (from BPA-free cans), instead of dried, to make things faster and easier….

Weeknight Dinners: April 3-7, 2017

April 3, 2017 By msmart Leave a Comment

  Our weeknight dinners are super simple this week, and most of our meals can be put together in about 15 minutes. During the day, I’ll be in the kitchen developing new recipes for spring menus (think peas, leeks, asparagus) and photographing recipes to post on the site. I have a couple fun collaborations with other food writers…

Weeknight Dinners: March 27-31, 2017

Can someone please tell me where March went? We seem to have missed it. Between spring break, teaching cooking classes and driving carpool, I’m not sure where an entire month went. I’m having the tiniest bit of anxiety about getting summer plans lined up (I already missed the boat on one sports camp for my…

Weeknight Dinners: March 6-10, 2017

MONDAY Whole chicken in the Crock Pot. This is such an easy way to cook a whole chicken, especially if you need to cook it around 2pm before heading to carpool and doing afternoon sports-tutoring-nutritionist appointment carpool. You can crisp up the chicken skin under the broiler before you serve it, or just dish up…

Weeknight Dinners: February 27-March 3

February 27, 2017 By msmart Leave a Comment

Our menus have been very “clean” lately, because we aren’t cooking with wheat, soy, corn, dairy or beef (and a long list of other items). I don’t want my family to really notice a huge change in our dinner routine, so I’ve been scouring the internet for flavorful, allergy-free family meals. I’ve also been tweaking some of our family…

It’s a short week, which means a shorter weekly meal plan for some of you. If you can’t quite pull yourself out of the relaxation after the long weekend, just brainstorm three easy meals for mid-week. Friday can either be a pantry meal, like spaghetti and Rao’s marinara, or a big pot of “clean out the crisper”…

SUNDAY We had one of our old favorites, spatchcocked chicken with shallots, that cooks in about 35 minutes. Paired with sautéed greens and Serious Eats’ crispy roasted potatoes, it was a winner, winner chicken dinner.   MONDAY I’m trying Bon Appetit’s method for oven risotto. Sunday night we used up all our kale (and collards and spinach) in…

  This weekend went by way too fast, and it seems like the whole month of February will be gone in the blink of an eye. This is the time of year that starts to feel like an all-out sprint. Today we made a mad dash for new shoes, lacrosse gear, class party treats and new ingredients for…

Happy Chinese New Year! To celebrate, we’re starting Monday off with tofu egg roll bowls full of Chinese cabbage, bok choy, red peppers and carrots. Longevity noodles, veggie lo mein or sesame noodles sound tempting, but after a few days at Cal-a-Vie Spa in San Diego I’m planning to stay focused on lean protein and plenty of greens and vegetables. I’m banishing pasta, bread and processed carbs for…

This is going out pretty darn late. I’m surrounded by Tamiflu, Mucinex and cough drop wrappers as I try to get my oldest well and keep everyone else healthy. Hold, please, while I douse my house with Lysol. I haven’t done my typical Monday morning grocery run, but since our pantry is stocked with good-quality…
