First a note about my new recipes last week: The "Festive corn and broccoli" was not that good. I think I will just steam the veggies next time w/o seasonings. The black beans and Chili cheese recipe was ok. Nothing to recommend, but it was nice variety.
The last new try last week, "Greens with Pears and Avocado" was excellent. I used Kraft Light Asian Toasted Sesame dressing, and the whole combo was really good (I'm sure any Sesame salad dressing would be good).
Also, new for this week, in a way to involve the kids more, each week they will choose one dinner menu. It should be interesting....
Monday (Devin, 5): Bean and Cheese Burritos with carrot sticks and salad
Tuesday: Pasta Primavera: I saute garlic, onions and steam with a variety of veggies. This week it will be red bell peppers, tomatoes, zucchini and broccoli with basil and maybe oregano. Served over noodles with freshly grated parmesan and french bread.
Wednesday (Elana, 7): Raviolis (didn't have them last week!) with steamed carrots and salad.
Thursday: Tacos with salad and corn bread
Friday: Scheri's Lentil's (w/Autumn Blend)
Saturday: BBQ turkey burgers w/red potatoes or leftovers

I think I will try the Greens with Pears and Avocado recipe this weekend! I hope your family likes the lentils :-)
The kids liked the idea of fruit on the salad (they didn't want to even try the avocado... and I didn't encourage them too much....more for me!!)
I'm looking forward to the lentils. I'm interested to see what the kids think. They've never had lentils before. Bu what a colorful way to introduce them!
