The Food
The snow is sticking around my home a bit longer than we typically enjoy, but comforting, winter foods are still required because of it, so that is tempering any of my complaints.
For this week of comfort, start by preparing the Baked Chicken, Broccoli & Rice Casserole. Chop up some additional broccoli that can be used on the Caramelized Onion & Broccoli Pizza later in the week. Use the bones from the chicken to make a broth if you desire for some extra nutrients.
Next, whip up a big pot of black beans. Use half for the Black Bean Soup and the other half for the Black Bean & Sweet Potato Enchiladas. The soup will benefit from the chicken broth made from the bones in the casserole. A few cups of black beans combined with white beans makes a magical, Italian style Black & White Bean Salad perfect for lunches on the go throughout the week.
The dump & stir together Cajun Aioli Sauce makes the Bacon Shrimp even more exciting especially when dancing with the Roasted Garlic Mizuna Salad.
The salad can be stored in separate pieces: dressing, toppings and greens to take on the go for lunch served with a couple of simple Cheese Toasts. Meanwhile the extra sauce will dollop up the Cajun Egg Sandwiches for breakfast.
Another great breakfast option are these simple vegan Banana-Almond Breakfast Cookies. They are lightly sweetened with just fruit, almond butter & meal with an oatmeal base.
Stay warm my dear friends and I hope we all find comfort in the most nourishing meals.
Cook seasonally. Eat consciously. Live well,
