Every Wednesday I write a blog post with all of the vegetarian dinners we ate this week.
Back from vacation and finally on time with a WWAW post!
Wednesday: Out for Sushi
I don’t normally eat fish, but I do make an exception for Sushi, especially when I am at the beach. We started with delicious soy-garlic edamame and then had three different kinds of sushi rolls. Okura Robata
Thursday: Out for Mexican
We went to dinner at a cute Mexican restaurant, Sol, right on the marina in Newport. I was pretty sure we were going to run into the Bluths or maybe the Cohens. I had the largest Michelada of my life and a delicious shrimp chili relleno.
Friday: Out for more Mexican
This was more Mexican-inspired than traditional, but it was amazing. We had a 4 course pre fixe meal at Taco Maria. The courses were all delicious and creative. I highly recommend it!
Saturday: Beans and Rice
Ben and I thought it would be nice to make dinner since Judi and Char took care of our kids while we were off in Laguna. We made brown rice, these beans, cheese, and guac. Yum yum!
Sunday: Quesadillas and Quinoa Salad
We decided to make dinner again (we really appreciated our vacation!). We made this quinoa salad and cheese quesadillas with corn tortillas and jack.
Monday: Cheese Plate
I ordered the cheese plate on our Alaska Airlines flight home. Surprisingly good!
Tuesday: Chickpea Sandwiches
My friend Diana recommended this sandwich and since we had no food and this looked easyish, I decided to make it that same day! I threw the whole thing together in 20 minutes and it was DELICIOUS!! On her recommendation, I served it on Hawaiian rolls and topped with guacamole (she actually recommended avocados, which would have probably been better but there were no avocados at the store so I had to buy premade guac). And, other than the buns, it’s vegan and super healthy! Next time I would probably serve it with sweet potato fries. It wasn’t super filling.
No, that’s just a loose seal. 🙂
Too bad you only describe dinners, since you guys had such a great meal at South Coast Plaza!
I know! I may do a post with all our meals in Laguna since Ben did such a good job of picking restaurants 🙂
