Meal Planning

 This week I'm planning to make:


Tofu Pot Pie and Pumpkin Curry Soup

Gonna use Earth Balance in place of butter for the pie crust to make it fully vegan.  Making this tomorrow.  Using leeks from the latest farm box in the soup, and it's looking like the orange veg in the soup will be pumpkin and maybe a sweet potato this time around.  I just dumped a bunch of stuff I needed to use up in this soup the last time around and it was its tastiest iteration yet.


Creole Red Beans & Rice

Using brown basmati rice in place of the white rice.  This will probably be Wednesday night.


Sameer plans to fast on Thursday, so Sim and I will eat leftovers or sandwiches or the last of the black bean burgers I made last week and stashed in the freezer.


Homemade Pizza

Because I haven't made pizza in a little while and I've got mozzarella in the fridge and pizza dough in the freezer.  Probably Friday night dinner. 


I also have a bundle of parsnips from the latest farm box.  I don't love parsnips' sharp flavor, but truffled parsnip soup sounded interesting, so I'm going to use this recipe as a jumping off point and just make something based on what I've got at home.  I'm thinking it will contain parsnips, maybe potato for creamy starchiness, shallot and maybe some onion, celery (not the root, I don't have celery root), and some white truffle oil and coconut milk.  Maybe chives sprinkled on top if any of the ones in the planter outside are still green.  Maybe a bunch of garlic too.  I don't know what I'm doing.
