Fall is here! Even if it's still 90 degrees.
Monday
- Chicken tikka masala
- I only used 2 large chicken breasts for this and it was plenty for us + leftovers. I butterflied them before broiling to make them cook faster
- I added less salt - maybe 1.5 tsp?
- I added less sugar - maybe 1 tsp
- I left out the serrano for the kids
- I use Trader Joe's Curry Powder instead of garam masala - it has a similar flavor but is less floral, which I like. I also only used 2 TBSP instead of 3
- Brown rice with turmeric - followed package instructions and added 1/4 tsp of turmeric before cooking. gives it a pretty yellow color.
- Curry roasted zucchini
- heat oven to 425 - use convection if you have it
- cut zucchini into spears and toss with olive oil, salt, pepper and curry powder (add cayenne if you like it spicy)
- roast for 30-40 minutes, tossing a couple of times in between
Wednesday
- chili tacos
- thawing out the last of our chili from last year's chili cook-off, but my quick chili recipe is pretty great! serve on flour tortillas with lettuce, tomato, onion and grated cheddar
- mexican cole slaw
- bag of cole slaw
- shredded radishes and jalapeno (I like to grate them in the food processor)
- chopped cilantro
- dressing (adapted from Dinner: The Playbook sandwich slaw):
- 3 TBSP mayo
- squeeze of lime juice
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- squeeze of honey
- salt and pepper
