Labor Day Weekend is the last hurrah.  My son starts school on Tuesday so we’re all sneaking away to Park City, Utah for a quick family getaway.  I think he’s actually ready to get back to school and a routine.  And so am I.  My teaching schedule is already full for Septmeber and I’m back at it next week.  If you take my classes, I am so excited to see you!  If you don’t, check out my online classes – they’re the next best thing to being in the kitchen with me!

Labor Day: No-Cooking Vegan Chopped Salad from Goop, Tasty Turkey Burgers, big platter of grilled veggies, watermelon-feta bites (sub avocado for the feta to make it DF/vegan)

Tuesday: Pasta with Kale, Walnuts and Ricotta from my book. Kite Hill makes a great vegan ricotta.

Wednesday Mediterranean Fish in Parchment, serve with a side of your favorite roasted veggies.  This is good time to use up leftover crudites from your Labor Day BBQ!

Thursday:  Smoked Braised Lentils with or without turkey sausages. Serve with a side of roasted broccolini, method here, with a squeeze of lemon.

Friday: Simple grilled chicken, grilling method here, with a fresh farmers market salad, I suggest your favorite greens along with chopped crunchy veggies and mixing it with a simple unrefined olive oil, vinaigrette and sea salt.  Option to serve with a side of quinoa, method here.

Saturday Brunch/Lunch: A fresh green salad with leftover grilled chicken served with my Everyday Salad Dressing and with this Green Tea Arnold Palmer recipe 

Sunday: Zucchini Gruyere Tart serve with a side of mixed greens.

 

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