The biggest hit from last week’s menu was definitely the Mushroom Ragu. It took a lot longer to make than I would normally like to spend on a week night meal, but it was definitely worth it. We used a combo of fresh porcini and portabello mushrooms along with dried porcini and yellow boletes, which really added nice, woodsy depth to the dish.

Since Rick really doesn’t like polenta, I ended up keeping that for lunch for myself and made some pasta instead.

Other notable meals were the Grilled Salmon, which I served with something I like to call Pico de Yummy. I’ll be posting the recipe later today. The Spanish Potato Tortilla was interesting, but probably not something I’d make again.

Bonus recipes!

Since having breakfast and lunch recipes helped me out so much last week, I decided to go ahead and continue the practice this week. Since Rick still has lots of granola left over, breakfast this week is mostly for me, so of course I had to make something extra healthy sounding.

Lunches: Lentils in Olive Oil with Egyptian Spices over salad greens, Curried Zucchini

Breakfast: Zucchini, Carrot & Cranberry Muffins (veganized)
