The week is almost over and I'm finally able to sit down for a minute to post this week's meal plan (I wrote this last week but didn't actually get to post it until now).  Hopefully I will get next week's done soon :)

Sunday-leftovers & salad
Monday-Quinoa tostadas w/ Avocado Cashew Cream
~These turned out very tasty but everything took a lot longer than I expected.  I made the quinoa the night before and it was the first time I made black beans from scratch...it didn't go as well as I had hoped but they turned out okay.  Making cashew cream was interesting and I want to try more recipes with it!

Tuesday-Salmon with mashed potatoes and sautéed greens
~Delicious mashed potatoes, using organic potatoes makes a world of difference...they have a wonderful flavor and are sweeter than non-organic.  I had never made greens before (I used a mix of kale and rainbow chard), they turned out okay but I definitely cooked them too long and I think the cider vinegar was a bit much.

Wednesday-concert, eat out
~Hubby and I went to a Paul Simon concert for our 5th anniversary and had enchiliadas (and a pitcher of tasty margaritas) at Camacho's Cantina...fun night!
Thursday-Tamales (farmers market) & black beans
Friday-Butternut squash lasagna (mother earth news)
Saturday-Vegetarian flatbread pizza & salad
