Menu: Oct. 4th - 7th

MONDAY



 Grilled Vietnamese Meatballs w/ Pineapple Fried Rice & Sesame Ginger Salad

"My daughter packed her portion for lunch today and I've got mine for lunch as well (I think we had more meatballs last night than the last time, so we we're actually getting a dinner and two lunches out of it).  Sticky rice is a favorite in our house, so that combined with the pineapple is a big hit. Bottom line...food was excellent, as usual!" - Suzanne


The sweet/savory in the turkey meatballs is a perfect match for the sweet/tangyness in the pineapples. Finish off with a salad of greens, shredded cabbage, carrots, scallions, cilantro, toasted sesame seeds and a sesame ginger dressing.

No oil used whatsoever in the fried rice!






TUESDAY


Peruvian Chicken w/ Garlic Rice, Plantains and Side Salad

"Last night's dinner (Peruvian Chicken) got a huge WOW!  Definitely a keeper! " - Suzanne  


"The Peruvian Chicken last night was delicious!!!  My mom, my husband and I enjoyed it very much last night.  Can't wait to have the left over for lunch today. YUM!!!" - Irene


Whole chicken marinated in a smoky cumin sauce. Just go ahead and put away your forks. The best way to eat this is to rip apart the meat with your hands, then dip it in either the Sweet Ranch or the Cilantro Sauce.  Follow up with a sweet piece of plantain.and some of that  rich and savory garlic rice.
(When I serve this to my family, I place the salad on the bottom of the rice and pour some sauce over it.  Otherwise, the salad won't get eaten!  Since I like different textures in my food, I actually prefer to eat it this way.)







WEDNESDAY



Coconut Shrimp Balls w/ Rice Noodles & Peanut Ginger Sauce
*2/$25

"We love the coconut shrimp balls.  I like the fact that you can taste just
a hint of coconut.  And I LOVE the ginger peanut sauce.  I could have eaten
all the noodles with just the sauce.  Thanks for another great dinner!" - Irene



Shredded coconut added to ground shrimp and grilled.
If you love shrimp and coconut, you will definitely love this!
