Meal Planning

This week I am making: 

Seven Layer Tortilla Pie

DIY Sandwiches and Vegan Cream of Broccoli Soup
We have a lot of random sandwich/burger fixins I plan to use up on Tuesday night.

Dum Aloo and Dal Makhani

Beefless Stew

Cheese Ravioli with Arugula
Because I have cheese ravioli leftover from making this last week.

Meal Planning

Spaghetti & Meatless Balls and Artichokes & Asparagus in Vermouth Brown Butter

Chilaquiles Casserole
I'm making this Wednesday because I can prep it in advance.  It'll use up lots of random stuff I have on hand, like canned tomatoes with green chiles and frozen corn and corn tortillas.

Vegetarian Reuben Sandwiches and Crudites
I'm making this today (Tuesday) because it's easy and quick and Sameer won't care that he's missing it.

Chile Rellenos with Rice and Beans

Meal Planning

My BFF Jackie is coming to visit tomorrow, and Sameer has taken to essentially fasting on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, so he no longer eats what I cook on those days.  Here is what I'm planning to make this week:

Tofu Parmigiana and Ratatouille and possibly Herbed Dinner Rolls
This will be Monday night's dinner because it reheats well and I'm not certain what time Jackie will arrive.  I really need to write down my version of the ratatouille and tofu recipes.  I know I've altered them from the originals over the years, so some of my cooking tomorrow will be from memory.

Pumpkin Cake Roll and Cinnamon Ice Cream
I'm making this tomorrow partly because Jackie's birthday will be happening while she is here and partly just because I really want to make and eat a pumpkin cake roll and cinnamon ice cream.  I've never made a cake roll before.  I made the ice cream base today and will run it through the ice cream maker tomorrow around dinner time so it's fresh. 

Garden Pretzel Sandwiches with Crudites and Ranch Dip
This is Tuesday's dinner because it's quick and easy to throw together after Simran finishes at gymnastics.

Enchiladas Verdes and Black Beans and Red Cabbage Slaw
This is a tasty, fairly healthy, easy dinner for Wednesday.

Ravioli with Arugula and Green Salad
This is an easy Thursday night dinner. 

Meal Planning

Vegan Po'Boy Sandwich

Leftover Crispy Breaded Tofu Strips and Crudites with Buffalo Hummus and Collard Greens with Almonds

Tortilla Pie
This will use up some of the corn tortillas in my fridge and the corn in the freezer.

Vegetarian Turkey Club and Salad

Quesadillas
