***weekly menu 6/2***

Sat: BBQ marinated rib eyes, PW crash-hot-potatoes, Creamed Spinach & Sweet corn on the cob

Sun: Annual Family Reunion Picnic, we haven't decided if we're packing simple sandwiches, chips, & fruit or going the fried chicken, cole slaw & potato salad route. All the families do a Viennese dessert table, I'll edit when I figure out what I'm bringing. Thinking of these lemon-cheesecake-creme-brulee-bars or 2 pails with "Sand" and "Dirt".

Mon: T-ball, hotdogs, beans, & chips

Tues: ST coconut-chicken-tenders with brown rice tossed with mushrooms & peas and garden salad ***didn't realize I didn't have coconut in the house, so we made the ST chicken nugget recipe instead with the tenders. So good!

Wed: ST persian-turkey-kofta-kebabs with skinny-tzatziki and garlic, olive oil pearl couscous salad with tomato, cucumber & ff feta

Thurs: ST asian-glazed-thighs with fried rice using the left-over brown rice and added steamed asian veggies.

Fri: Pizza and leftovers

YUM! I'm in love with your menu this week!

I've never cooked calamari at home.. is it difficult??

Also, do you mind sharing your jerk chicken & dirty rice recipes?

Re: ***weekly menu 6/2***

Hey Lady!!!


I went to Southside and bought calamari cleaned and whole. I marinated in olive oil, lemon and red pepper flakes for a few hours and then tossed them on the grill and brushed them with more olive oil and lemon juice. I then took capers, lemon juice, and olive oil and used an immersion blender to make a vinaigrette to pour over them. They were delicious, no fish taste at all and super tender!

I use this Jerk Chicken recipe:

And this recipe for Dirty Rice :)

I got SOOO confused when I read this.. I had forgotten that Southside was also a fish market. I was thinking that you were buying squid out of the back of a van at the hospital!Chat Icon
