What We Ate Wednesday

What We Ate Wednesday: Every Wednesday I write a blog post with all of the vegetarian dinners we ate this week.

Wednesday:  Quinoa Bowl

Just cook some quinoa, season it with cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Then serve it with beans (I used pinto), tomatoes, cheese, greek yogurt (or sour cream), and avocado.

Thursday: Soup

I brought dinner for a friend who just had a sweet little baby boy on Wednesday and then we had the same thing the next night: cheesy garlic bread and ratatouille soup (she also had a Cesar salad and an ice cream pie).

Friday: Surprise Party

My friend Nicole threw a last minute surprise birthday party for her husband Aaron. It was sooo fun! The kids exhausted themselves playing outside while the grown ups talked and drank! It was Mexican themed so we all left full!

Saturday: Haloumi Kabobs

Ben grilled up these kabobs and I made some brown rice and a salad. Super delicious!!

Sunday: Pasta with Tomatoes, Fennel, and Basil

I asked Ben what he wanted for his Father’s Day dinner and he requested this pasta (it’s just like this one but with diced fennel). So easy and good! I also made him a surprise ice cream pie for dessert!!

Monday: Indian Pizza

They were giving samples of this at Trader Joe’s the other day. Pretty clever idea! Frozen naan, masala simmering sauce, frozen peas, mozzarella. And we also had a salad. We have been getting so much lettuce in our CSA!!!

Tuesday: Out/ Tempeh and Bok Chou

I went out for a girls night with two super fun friends. We went to Mussel Bar, which was great! We had mussels, frites, scallops, calamari, and Brussels sprouts. And a lot to drink!

For Ben and the kids I made a gingery tempeh which I won’t link to since no one seemed to like it much and a stir fried bok choy.
