Happy Weekend! My Italian vacation with my whole family is coming to an end shortly but it has been a truly magical trip. I will share ALL the details in one or two different newsletters soon. I am headed to my mom’s house on Long Island before returning to California. My son will be going back to college (insert crying emoji) and I will spend a few extra days with him. I don’t know if I can pull off a Monday Instagram live this week. My guess is probably not, but I’ll plan on it for August 26! Here’s your dinner planner for the week:
Meatless Monday: Gazpacho with avocado, green salad with chickpeas and toasted breadcrumbs
Tuesday: Spetses braised cod, simple rice or orzo
Wednesday: Moroccan sheet pan chicken from QTQ, served with sautéed cauliflower rice or couscous
Thursday: Smoky braised lentils with or without turkey sausages, grilled bell peppers
Friday: Summer Squash and Basil Pasta from Healthyish (this would be great with shrimp!) + Spiced Peach Shortcakes with Homemade Whipped Cream for dessert
Saturday Brunch: Zucchini-blueberry bread + yogurt
Sunday: Slow cooker BBQ chicken sandwiches, coleslaw and sweet potato fries
