What We Ate Wednesday

Oops! I almost forgot my WWAW post! I’ll make it brief! I did try to take pics this week, but it was hard to remember! Also, I am really bad at photographing food so that it looks appetizing. Sorry!

*Every Wednesday I write a blog post with all of the vegetarian dinners we ate this week!*

Wednesday: Corn and Radish Tacos

We have gotten about 5,000 radishes from our CSA recently, so I was on the hunt for a good radish recipe. This one is excellent. We made ours with fresh corn tortillas, black beans, and jack cheese. Avocado would have been amazing.

Thursday: Take Out

Ben’s parents were in town and treated us to Lost Dog pizza. Yum!

Friday: Cheese Flautas with Cilantro Pesto, Roasted Butternut Squash Soup, and Black Eyed Pea Salad

This is, hands down, my favorite fall meal. I always make all three pieces together and I only make it in the fall. It is one of the few things I look forward to when the weather starts getting cold. Click for recipes for the flautas, soup, and salad.

Saturday: Stir-Fried Eggplant, Tofu and Rice

Ben made this meal. You have to have a cook’s illustrated membership to see the recipe for the eggplant. For the tofu, Ben just fried it in oil and then added it to the eggplant so it got seasoned with the same yummy sauce. I try to plan for one vegan meal per week (though I don’t always succeed) and this was it this week!

Sunday: Curried Couscous and cheesy garlic bread

I saw Giada making this on TV last week and thought it looked SO good. And then when I saw we got cauliflower in our CSA, I knew it was meant to be. I asked my sister for ideas of what to make with this (in the show she made chicken nuggets) and she suggested cheesy garlic bread. It was a perfect combo!

Monday: Caldo Verde and grilled cheese sandwiches

Sorry, this is another cook’s illustrated recipe. I found this one when I was trying to find something to make with the collard greens from our CSA this week. It calls for chorizo, but that is no problem since I love the soy chorizo at Trader Joe’s. Of course, when I went shopping they were out! So I found a new soy chorizo that is also really food. This meal was delicious and spicy!

Tuesday: Breakfast for dinner

This is always popular with the kids, and us too! We had cream cheese biscuits, apple butter, scrambled eggs, and skillet potatoes.
