Scheri's Menu for week of April 7

Our week looks a little boring, but it's all food the kids will love :-) I have a few recipes that I need to spend a little time documenting, which I will do in the next couple days.

Here is my menu for the week of April 7th:

Monday: None - Harsha is taking the kids out to dinner, while I go cycling

Tuesday:
Parmesan Risotto (simple recipe - I cook w/ diced onion, garlic, broth & a little wine, then add parmesan at the end)
Steamed Asparagus & Carrots
Bruschetta

Wednesday:
Peanut Pad Thai Pizza (I need to get the sauce recipe from Harsha and then I'll post it - super yummy!)
Cucumber & tomato salad

Thursday:
Lentil Soup (Crockpot recipe - another very easy one! I buy the Autumn Blend Lentils at Whole Foods, add veggie broth, carrots, celery, onion and garlic. Let simmer. The Lentils have a very good flavor of their own, so we never add spices.)
Corn Bread (I use blue corn meal to make it exciting for the kids)

Friday:
Lentil & Pepper Tart (Another recipe that I'll post in the next couple days. I need to scan it from one of my books.)
Spinach Salad (I always add some type of fruit, so it is more fun for the kids.)

I never plan the menu for our weekends. Too much is going on and we like to play it by ear. Have a happy cooking week!

Are the Autumn Blend lentils a mixture? I have some plain noodles at home and I'm wondering if they would work.
