In Review: Week of February 13

• Tofu Bowls–this was one of those late-night dinners where there was no sunlight left to take a photo, and I didn’t really follow a recipe.
• Valentine’s Dinner–Mad Men style! Tom Collins, caramelized onion dip, steak in a pan with butter, scalloped potatoes, Caesar salad, and cheesecake parfaits. Just wanted to spend time with Ben that night, so no real pictures.
• Tortellini Soup–amazing. recipe to come.
• Lime-Soy Chicken–last night’s dinner; recipe repeat. 🙂
• homemade pizza–didn’t happen.

I got to hang out with two of my good friends from college yesterday, and had the best time! It was so fun to catch up on each other’s lives. One of the girls mentioned that she likes seeing my menu plans but always wonders how things turn out if I don’t blog about it or link to the recipe. So, I thought I’d start updating my old menu plans with links and also recap new recipes from the week before. Hope that’s helpful! 🙂

In Review: Week of February 6

• Potato Rosemary Soup–definitely will make again. Recipe to come.
• Cincinnati Turkey Chili–pretty spicy, but Ben loved it. Recipe to come.
• Both soups made a ton of leftovers so we ate these all week long along with other semi-random meals like chili nachos and eggs. Since we had colds this week, neither of us was very hungry. It was a strange week.
