Meal Eight: Fajitas

Easy to let everyone have their choice... with many small dirty dishes...  chicken, steak, shrimp.  I created a marinade with lemon juice, cilantro, olive oil, garlic, and spices.  Some mexi rice and beans with grilled onions and peppers made a perfect meal. Trader Joe's supplied the options for a salsa taste off.  Chipolte Garlic was a winner... sadly Habanero and Lime Salsa was so bad we dumped it out.  The corn and chile tomato-less salsa is my fav! Yummy.

Meal Seven: Panko Crusted Haddock

Like a swallow to Capistrano .... a favorite returns!  We all enjoyed our crunchy fish, garlicky aioli, roasted red potatoes and a new side, broccoli slaw .   You can always check the details here. Poor Eeyore is still in recovery, so we had to be careful not to make her laugh too much!

Meal Six: Pasta Bar

Tis the season for variety... a little of this, a little of that.   12+ inches of snow the day before, rain the day after... weird.  In the spirit of flexibility, Pasta Bar!  While this meal looks simple on the surface, quick red sauce, pasta, toppings... it has quickly become known to the kitchen crew as "that meal with lots of dishes and pots!"  A challenge indeed. Loved the pesto tortellini and ciabatta loaf from Trader Joes.. how lucky we are they are close by now! Biggest fun was chatting about summer plans... Eeyore and Piglet are generously adding to our water enjoyment options- SuperMabel will have us giggling like fools!
