Week 21

Saturday
Real corn tortillas (Tio Pablo-brand?) with shallow-fried, panko-crumbed fish (snapper and gurnard), with guacamole (avocado, lime juice, coriander, chilli, red onion) and a papaya salsa (papaya chunks and cucumber with lime juice, coriander, chilli and red onion). YUM.

Sunday
Grilled lemon & chilli haloumi and grilled polenta (with a spicy mushroom 'filling') with a thick home-made Italian tomato sauce, ciabatta crostini and sun-dried tomato tapenade, and a side salad with a balsamic vinaigrette.

Also: made muesli with maple syrup and honey, mixed nuts, dates, fruit medley and orange-flavoured cranberries.

Monday
Soba noodles (Japanese buckwheat noodles) with onion, bell pepper, and portabellos in a miso-soy sauce with garlic & ginger, as well as fried tempeh. Win!

Tuesday
Indian chicken korma curry with onion & supertender chicken thigh meat, steaming Jasmin rice, iceberg lettuce and cucumber raita. Exquisitely tasteful. (Wayne-only cooking ;))

Wednesday
Fried up the left-over polenta (with mushrooms), and lemon-chilli haloumi (SO good!), and a mushroom mixture of portabellos, garlic & thyme. Also had green beans with a Sicilian-style tomato sauce (garlic, chilli pepper, fresh tomato, caperberries and sundried tomatoes).

Thursday
Red quinoa salad with roast pumpkin, kumara, red onion, feta and orange. Simple, tasty & wholesome - a home favourite.

Friday
The real corn tortillas (Tio Pablo) with warm mixed beans (tossed with garlic and some cumin), grated cheddar cheese, a chilli-tomato sauce, finely chopped white onion, some fresh tomato with coriander, and iceberg lettuce. Easy, and super nice!


Sunday Eve dinner with polenta & haloumi, woOohoOo!
