Menu for May 12

Happy Mother's Day to all you moms. I hope you got the pampering that you deserve.
Here is a bit of a head's up about next week. I'm heading out on a road trip on Friday. I won't be around at all next week. But on Monday May 25th, I'll be back in the kitchen, feeling inspired and keen to cook up some more good food for you.
We will be at the Farmer's Market on the Saturdays.

This is a nice salad...for the
QUINOA & SWEET POTATO SALAD we sauteed the sweet potatoes with some onions and garlic and added it to the quinoa with some peppers, cilantro and a dressing of lemon juice and maple syrup. This salad is gluten-free & dairy-free

Someone was asking me when I was going to make the
SPICY THAI NOODLES WITH TOFU & PEANUT SAUCE again, so here it is. We use rice noodles to keep it gluten-free and add it to stir-fried veggies and our spicy peanut sauce and finish it off with marinated tofu.

Here is a nice meal with lots of spice and flavor...the CURRIED CHICKPEAS are cooked in a SAUCE of tomatoes, curry, spices and lots of CILANTRO. This is served on some BROWN BASMATI RICE.

The LIGURIAN BREAD & ROASTED GARLIC PENNE is whole wheat penne in a sauce made from bread, olive oil, red wine vinegar and roasted garlic. For the vegetarians we added some NUTS & SEEDS or you could have this with GRILLED CHICKEN.

Our SESAME TOFU LOAF is mashed tofu, with vegetables, crushed corn chips, tahini & seasonings. We are always very pleased with this one. You can enjoy this with either ROASTED POTATOES or RICE.

MOROCCAN SPINACH & RICE PIE is a layer of brown rice mixed with some cheeses and lemon, then a layer of sauteed spinach and onions with Mozzarella, then some spiced tomato sauce, more spinach and topped with more Mozzarella. This meal is gluten-free.

For the CHICKEN WITH 40 CLOVES OF GARLIC, we cook the garlic for a long time to make it sweet and mild and added the chicken breast & thighs with some stock and a bit of white wine. It is served with ROASTED POTATOES and veggies.

Do you remember the SPINACH & SUNDRIED TOMATO STUFFED STEAK? We marinated the beef and stuffed it with the spinach, sun-dried tomatoes and some Parmesan and then grilled it. It is served with OVEN ROASTED POTATOES or BROWN RICE.

It seems like a while since we've offered anything Caribbean so how about the CARIBBEAN PINEAPPLE CHICKEN & SWEET POTATOES this week? We served this on a bed of brown rice and black beans.

The GROUND BEEF CHOP SUEY is the beef cooked with celery, sprouts and mushrooms in an Asian sauce served on BROWN RICE or RICE NOODLES.

Have a wonderful and safe long week-end......Karin
