TUESDAY


Garlic and Herb Chicken with Spinach Artichoke Angel Hair
& Roasted Veggies

Split chicken breasts marinated overnight with lots of garlic and herbs then baked.  Angel hair pasta tossed with olive oil, spices, feta, artichoke hearts and spinach.  
A great way to eat this is to make 3-4 cuts along the breast then pour the garlic herb sauce and just let it flow!!!  It's so tender and juicy by itself, but the sauce makes it even better!



WEDNESDAY

"The salmon melted in my mouth (and my kids mouths). They loved it! I liked the fresh spinach too. The noodles were delicious. I was surprised that the kids liked the noodles because I tried switching to whole wheat before and they did not eat it.  I would have rank this dinner at the top along with the meatballs." - Ramona

-Whole Wheat Noodles tossed with light olive oil
-Sesame Ginger dressing

Reheat salmon in oven at 350.  After you've warmed everything up, place noodles in a bowl and toss with dressing. Then top with baby spinach, salmon, sesame seeds and drizzle some more dressing on top as well.

& Thai Cole Slaw

Pork chops marinated overnight in BBQ sauce and pineapple juice then grilled.  The sticky rice is steamed then topped with sauteed scallions and Chinese sausage. Add Thai cole slaw and grilled pineapple wedges and you have an incredible dinner at an incredible price!

The best way to warm up sticky rice is to reheat it lightly in the microwave with a slightly wet paper towel on top.  This should be the last thing you warm up.
