The holidays are upon us!  I went to a Cookie Swap yesterday hosted by Bake From Scratch and it was loads of fun (and sugar, oy!).  I made the Peppermint Bark Shortbread from this month’s online cooking class and everyone raved about them!  It’s our secret that they are so easy.  I am making them again today for a huge cookie swap that I am co-hosting Sunday, December 15th at 11:00 am at the FeedFeed in downtown LA.  Guess what?  Because I am one of the co-hosts, I can invite YOU!  Here are the details and it’s totally free other than bringing, you guessed it, COOKIES to swap!  You do have to RSVP though.

Next weekend I am traveling back home to Long Island to celebrate Christmas with my family.  It’s always my favorite week of the year!

Here’s your dinner planner for the week:

Meatless Monday: Baked black bean taquitos, chipotle brussels sprouts

Tuesday: Brown butter miso-glazed wild salmon, asian slaw, ginger and honey glazed carrots 

Wednesday: Sugar snap pea and quinoa salad with tofu (I will replace snap peas with cauliflower or another fall/winter vegetable), I might add a quick saute of veggies if I think we need it

Thursday: Broccoli, celery root, and spinach soup from my book

Friday: Fall weeknight pasta from Food52

Saturday brunch: gingerbread pancakes

Sunday: Baked chicken with artichokes and capers, gluten-free millet and shiitake pilaf

 

Here’s what you can do ahead if you need to:

Sunday:

Wash and dry all herbs and vegetables

Finely shred cabbage

Cut and peel carrots if necessary

Make quinoa salad dressing

Thursday:

Cut butternut squash or buy pre-cut

Friday:

Salt chicken, unless you’re using kosher chicken

Make pancake batter
