apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Sauteed lacinato kale over rice, sprinkled with a little romano and parmigiano reggiano.

After reading the earlier post, my daughter and I had spaetzle with a poached egg. It was my first attempt at spaetzle and it turned out great. We'll be having it again.

Leftover turkey-and-two-bean chili with whole wheat couscous ... I think I was eating something similar the last time I answered this question! It's comfort food for me!

Cauliflower soup my mom made and brought me

A quickly tossed together salad of baby greens, carrots, celery and almonds; topped with Newman's Balsamic Vinagrette; a terrible orange (I had to throw it away) and a cup of chocolate pudding. Nothing too exciting!

Salad - Romaine and Feta from the local foodmarket, craisins and almonds.
Chicken Florentine with Couscous... I got the recipe from the inside of a Parmesan couscous box... :)

Spring mix with figs, nuts, shallot and a balsamic dressing. Jalapeno cheddar bread and garlic hummus. An apple for dessert. Yum.

I am having leftover Lentil and Chorizo soup, one of three soups I made for dinner last night. It makes a big pot, so it will be lunch (and dinner) again a few more times. It's good and spicy.

Sandwhich: Chicken breast, bacon, colby cheese, romain lettuce with honey mustard all on whole grain wheat.

Paired ( of course) with a large quality Orange.

Broccoli rabe, which I'm still learning how to make well (at once bitter and mushy - yay!) with homemade seitan in garlicky olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and pinenuts.

I had sweet-and-sour chicken salad that I made from a recipe in Padma Lakshmi's recent cookbook, along with a slice of wheat toast and a granny smith apple.

Lunch part 1 was leftover chili from dinner last night (from the America's Test Kitchen Family Cookbook - I highly recommend this recipe).

Lunch part 2 will be an Amy's frozen pizza shared with my husband and son.

a sandwich of sunday night's roast chicken, amped up with curry powder

Chicken Goulash with Biscuit Dumplings

Left over gumbo from last night (I used the chicken, andouille sausage and shrimp recipe from epicurious, worked out great) and some fruit.

french lentil salad on top of arugula with a piece of ficelle, followed by a couple of chocolate chip cookies my husband and children made.

Left-over from last night: cream of broccoli soup and a buttermilk drop-biscuit (both homemade, of course!), an orange and a glass of water. Delish!

Left-over from last night's Harira soup with Bulgur (delicious!), some bread (gotta have the bread) and an orange.

Lunch--I hate to shock you, but it consisted of a hot dog on a white bun, packaged oatmeal-raisin cookies, Fritos, and a banana. School cafeteria fare.

I'm having a chunk of fresh bread from a favorite bakery of mine with smooth, toasty peanut butter. Oh, and a fresh apple from a local orchard. And water. Sometimes I want something simple. This hit the spot.

smoked salmon with goat cheese, lemon zest and juice, baby arugula and capers.

i get to stay home this week so i'm treating myself.

masoor dal with potatoes, made by the BF last night.

Chicken with broccoli on rice and chicken with mushrooms on vegetable lo mein as take out from the local Chinese place.

Tofu quiche leftovers still going strong from Saturday's brunch, purchased mixed green salad and a tangerine. Wish I had some chocolate!

A baked potato with leftover mustard-caper sauce, steamed broccoli with lemon and crushed red pepepr, and a clementine.

Spinach, scrambled egg, & feta cheese wrap with curly fries on the side from the diner.

Leftover spaghetti squash casserole (from http://cheaphealthygood.blogspot.com) and steamed (well...nuked) broccoli. Not bad.

leftover spinach quiche and a really big salad

french lentils with cod (technically leftover since i made it last night) and a green salad

a handful of pecans, dried apricots and cranberries with a peanut butter and honey sandwhich on whole wheat bread i made yesterday!

Leftovers from yesterday's dinner:

Tempeh and Artichoke Stuffed Manicotti
Garlic Toast
Salad
Chocolate Zucchini Cupcakes

I love being vegan... :)

Ate out. Had a tasty Tofu Rueben sandwich at the local vegetarian place (not a veggie, just taking it easy this week after having short ribs, beef stir fry, and a ribeye all this weekend. Time to give the heart a break) here in Athens, GA.

i was working home today, so i broiled a piece of fish and ate it with some raw spinach dressed in the champagne orange vinegar i just bought at la trader joe's. lest this meal seem too earnest, i also ate two chocolate-pecan turtles.

Leftover vegetable barley soup, always better the next day. And probably a grapefruit, they are SO good right now!

Red lentil soup (a Cooking Light recipe I think...), a salad with carrots & grape tomatoes with Ken's Pomegranate dressing (all the Ken's dressings are SO good).
