Mini Farfalle w/ Roasted Peppers, Onions, Feta, & Mint

Mini farfalle with roasted peppers, onions, feta, and mint, and a garden salad.  This dish also has raisins and pine nuts.  You’d think with all that crazy stuff in there it’d be a pretty flavorful dish.  But they all seemed to blend pretty well together because nothing really stuck out too much.  I went with rotini instead of the mini farfalle.  It was from the 20 minute meals section and it actually was really fast.

Chicken, Mustard Greens, Gruyere Quesadillas

Chicken, mustard greens, and gruyère quesadillas, with leftover vegetarian chili and a garden salad.  It pretty much looks the same as yesterday’s dinner, but tastes very different.  I forgot to buy mustard greens so I went with spinach instead which I’m assuming was fine.  The gruyère cheese was pretty awesome though.  I’ve never had that before.

Three-Bean Vegetarian Chili

Chipotle Pork Tacos

Chipotle pork tacos, three-bean vegetarian chili, and a garden salad.  The tacos had a really good flavor and were very quick and easy to throw together.  The chili was fantastic though.  Not only great for a vegetarian chili, but just as a chili.  If I had a rating system in place I would give this chili a top rating.  It’s not my favorite chili though.  My mom’s chili holds the crown for best chili.

Frozen Pizza!!!

After an all day cage match with Ellie, the best I could come up with was a frozen pizza eaten off the cutting board in the kitchen.  It’s not delivery, it’s Digiorno.  Actually, it’s a Tombstone.

Palak Keema

Palak keema with basmati rice, and a garden salad. I got this Pakistani recipe from my friend Haniyyah. I’ve made this before and I really like it for many reasons. One, it tastes good. Two, it looks gross. And three, it has a lot of spinach in it.
