    Corn and Zucchini Salad with Feta... yum! (I couldn't find zucchini blossoms, so I made do without.)

    Today's dinner (Sunday) - was at a parksystem training today for volunteers, and by the time I got home it was 630pm. Made this fairly quick one-dish sautee (ok, 2 dish - I parboiled frozen peas and pasta separately and sequentially in the same water before adding them to the sautee pan to finish cooking). Made the tomato sauce from a small can of tomato paste and some pasta water. Came out pretty good. I learned from my last weeks' experiment with par boiling pasta intended to hydrate completely with a pan sauce; I got the proportions a bit better tonight. Diced fresh chicken breast, pasta, tomato sauce, herbs and spices, 4 colors of peppers, peas, onions, minced garlic. Enough in the batch for 3 dinners. Shown is one night/two servings. Haven't yet computed my numbers from MFP, but it should have decent protein, moderate carb, fair amount of fiber, and a bonus gut-health checkmark from all the veg colors.

    This past week's bean dish (made with Rancho Gordo's deliciously potato-y Snowcap Beans):
    -- I prepped and portioned out several servings. Easy to reheat in the microwave (I add a tbsp of olive oil at serving time). Nice comfort food, I particularly like the rich tomato-y broth.

    good organization and planning.

    I'm always on the hunt for salmon dishes. This looks good for summer.

    A hamburger and air fryer chips. I ran into a timing problem which is why they are not photographed together.

    I heartily recommend Salmon with Potatoes and Horseradish-Tarragon Sauce. Always a hit 'round these parts. You can play around with the veggie part of the dish, I like cauliflower instead of potato and someone I shared this recipe with just made it with turnips, carrots, and beets added to the potatoes, which looked beautifully dramatic and apparently turned out delicious as well.

    Thanks. That link also goes to other salmon recipes.

    Sausage ragu pulled out of the freezer from the batch cooked with a girlfriend before we went to Canada to visit my mom. Side of green salad with strawberries, a little feta and red onion.

    i was watching Australian Masterchef and had to try to Alvin's Drunken Chicken because the judges raved. It is a very light and diet friendly being rice wine poached chicken and a SE Asian salad with an oil free dressing. I wonder if the judges prefer light dishes especially in the early stages of the contest when they have to taste dishes from 12+ different contestants. I added coconut rice and braised bok choi.

    Some work travel earlier this week so lots of meals out. The spaghetti was good, from a local chain in Ohio.
