Scheri's Week of 6/2

I'm not very inspired this week. We had no food in the house last night, so we had pancakes, fruit and hash browns for dinner. The kids loved it, so no complaints. I just haven't had any great ideas... I did go grocery shopping this morning and bought a ton of food, so hopefully this week looks better than I feel about it... I do have a huge craving for salads, so there will be lots of those!

Monday:
Baked potatoes w/ cheese, sour cream & salsa
Salad (lettuce w/ green beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, garbanzo beans, blue cheese)

Tuesday:
Margaritas (yes, we are planning drinks in middle of the week!)
Cheese & Black bean Quesadillas
Sante Fe Salad (chopped romaine w/ black beans, corn, tomatoes, diced chilies)

Wednesday:
Grilled Zucchini, Carrots & potatoes w/ butter & garlic
Bean Salad
Veggie Burgers (we buy the GardenBurger brand)

Thursday:
Mixed bean curry w/ Basmati rice
- 1 tsp oil
- 1 med onion, diced
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- .5 tsp minced ginger
- 3 cups beans (I'll use .5 c lentils, garbanzo beans & great northern)
- 2 diced tomatoes
- 1.5 cups broth
- 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp coriander, 1/8 tsp cayenne, .5 tsp turmeric, 1 tsp garam masala

Cook onions, garlic & ginger in oil until tender. Add beans, tomatoes & broth. Cook until lentils are soft, then add the spices.
