Thursday the 9th: Food of the Week

 *Sunday we grilled a lemon chicken, butterflied, with some rice and green beans. I made a deep-dish apple pie that I will probably not make for another 10 years. It was very delicious but also a lot of work.

*Monday we had grilled reuben sandwiches made by the Son. He did a pretty good job and learned how to use the panini press as well.

*Tuesday we had poached chicken with a pumpkin seed mole. The linked recipe is different than what I used but similar. We used leftover rice from Sunday, and it was gentle but delicious. The poblanos I used for the peppers were not very spicy.

*Wednesday we had a lemon pasta with arugula and almonds and browned butter. It was a new recipe to me and came together pretty quickly. I think it was tasty; we added some leftover chicken from Sunday and that was really helpful to have some extra protein.

*Thursday, tonight, I'm making a beef barley soup. However, I need to buy more barley as my pantry moths didn't get just my flour but also my beans, rice, pasta, and nuts. A lot of pantry items went to the compost last night.

*Friday I'll be tired and we're having leftovers!
