Meals from June 2006

May 2006 | July 2006

2006-06-07 Build-a-Dinner

We experiment with some interesting turkey burgers for dinner tonight. Since kids and interesting foods naturally repel each other, we serve plain turkey burgers to the under-30 crowd tonight. Thus making for a very enjoyable dinner for all.

Spicy Turkey Burgers , Dal Soup (from a Madhur Jaffrey’s book) , Potato Chips

2006-06-14 Joes

Robin and Sarah went to Let’s Dish last night. They both made 8 meals to be unfrozen in the next month. So naturally, we use none of them tonight. Instead, Robin makes every kids’ favorite—sloppy joes. All three kids did a good job eating, especially our son who thinks “joes” may just be the greatest food known to man.

Sloppy Joes , Daughter’s Granola , Mashed Potatoes , Salad with Red Wine Vinaigrette

2006-06-17 5 Kid Draw

Sarah, Eric and the girls come for a visit. We do not make quite as much food as we normally do for their visits, but still more than enough. It has been a while since last they visited. Hopefully it will not be too long until their next visit.

Green Chutney Covered Fish , Curried Shrimp , Yogurt Raita , Mango and Tomato Salad , Jasmine Rice , Pappadums and Mango Chutney , Edamame , Chana (store-bought) , Asian Corns for Kids , One Piece of Fish (wrapped in foil and baked plain for the kids)
