This week I am doing a series of "throw together" meals I found in my October 2009 issue of Parenting Magazine. Being a full time working mom, time is typically short in the evenings on weekdays. That being the case, I've gotten into a rut of heating up frozen meals or just making mac 'n' cheese and peas. Boring and not so great for us nutritionally. So, when I saw this week's worth of simple, easy, healthy meals, I thought, why not? (Here's a link to five of them if you are interested...)
Tonight I made Lemony Lentil Soup with Greens. Neither of us are big kale fans, but the spices in the soup (thyme, basil and fresh lemon) provided them a great complex flavor. We even went back for seconds! It made a ton so I am freezing half for dinner on another night. Tomorrow, Chicken and Corn Tomato Salad...
