Let me 'splain.
No, there is too much. Let me sum up.*
I was away. And now I'm back. And I just bought three exciting cooking-for-one cookbooks and am getting seriously obsessive (as opposed to mildly obsessive) about cooking weeknight dinners.
The books are:
Going Solo in the Kitchen (Solo)
Cooking for One (CIA)
The Pleasures of Cooking for One (Jones)
All of these books provide a great breakdown of how to use up ingredients with minimal waste and how to shop smarter. They're terrific!
This week's menu plan:
Monday: Shells with sausage, tomatoes, and zucchini (Solo)
Tuesday: Broiled half chicken with root vegetables (Jones)
Wednesday: Chicken pot pie and green salad (Solo)
Thursday: Stracciatella and Italian chicken ciabbata sandwich (CIA)
Friday: Birthday dinner for Sarah--braised short ribs, glazed carrots, mashed potatoes.
Bon Appétit!
