This Week's Menu

This is last week's Menu as planned by Sarah:


Sarah has taken to writing out our weekly meal plan on a chalk board hung in our kitchen.  Partly it's because I kept asking her, "what's for dinner tonight?", even though she had already told me about three or four times that same day.  The chalk board helps me remember when I get home from work.

Last week we had a Chard and Onion Panade based on the recipe in the Zuni Cafe Cookbook.  We get a full loaf of bread every Thursday delivered to Sarah's work from iRise Bakery up in  Ben Lomond.  They're big loaves and we don't always finish them off in a week.  The leftovers go into a freezer bag and once we have enough we usually make a break pudding.  The Panade is a variation that we finally tried out. 

Borscht is on the menu, a good standby.  The black bean burgers we made ourselves based on a recipe from the Veganomicon using some of the left over rice meal from homemade rice milk.  We only got about 5 burgers out of the recipe, which isn't great, but it can be scaled up.  Ravioli didn't happen but we did make crepes for breakfast on Saturday with the blueberry peach sauce and we did end up finally making Strawberry Vanilla Sorbet, which I will post soon.

All in all, a good week.
