This week is going to be another busy one. And we are going to be eating out a few times at the end of the week, so I am only planning three meals this week. Plus, there is always stuff in the cabinets and freezer to make if we need it. I’d rather make something out of the cabinet instead of let produce go bad in the refrigerator. Weeks like these though, I do try to keep salad fixings in the frig so that we can have something ‘fresh’ tasting with our cabinet and freezer staples.
On another note, I am going to try to wean us off of bottled salad dressings for our summer salads. Over the years we have tried to eliminate excess sugar in our diets where we can because we ARE such sugar addicts. We’d rather enjoy our sugar in sugary treats and not in places where you don’t even know it is there. So this is another step in this process.
My husband’s dressing of choice is Wishbone Italian. Does anyone have a good homemade Italian dressing recipe they would like to share? My personal favorites are red wine vinegar and balsamic vinegar dressings, and those are easy. I just need to find one for him.
So for this week, we’re going to have some things from a few of my favorite bloggers:
Yummy Grilled Tofu from Book of Yum with Artichokes and Salad – we will probably bake or broil the tofu instead of grill. This is our favorite tofu marinade and it has convinced non-tofu eaters that tofu can be good. Thanks, Sea! And I am going to attempt to make artichokes after Heidi gave me the courage.
Polenta with Lemon Asparagus and Chickpeas from Fat Free Vegan – since we don’t care for asparagus we’re going to use steamed broccoli instead. Maybe we will try asparagus one day again. But this week the new vegetable is artichokes.
Pasta with Tomato-Blue Cheese Sauce from The Pioneer Woman with Salad
And of course if you don’t find something of interest here, be sure to go on over to OrgJunkie and check out all the other Meal Plan Monday postings.

Yea!! Steamed artichokes have become a weekly treat at our house, no more worms though (thank goodness!).
I think I’ll let you keep the Tofu. :-) I bet the marinade would be good with a portabello mushroom though!

Your menu sounds so delicious! I’ve been meaning to try that Book of Yum marinade after seeing a few people rave about it, and seeing it here further convinces me that I should do it soon!
I hope you enjoy your artichokes. I grew up eating them and have a great fondness for them.
Thanks for the quinoa recipe, it looks super yum. I wish I had a great salad dressing for your husband but I’m just a baby beginner when it comes to dressings, still trying to find versions I really like.

Yes, the marinade is wonderful!!! We love toasted sesame oil in or on anything though too. So yummy!
Artichokes are bought…hopefully they are good!

I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog
and was curious what all is needed to get set up? I’m assuming having a
blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very web savvy so I’m not
100% sure. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Splash Dash on i – OS and Android is a perfect example
of why people spend hours perusing the app marketplaces for hidden gems.
Almost any Android device can run the game, although slower
devices may lag from time to time, which can be frustrating in a game
based around timing. By the various and comprehensive functions listed above, Memory Booster gained great

The main social particularities of pygmy are the simple (nucleus) family and organization of families that makes a
hunting-gathering community which exploits the forest territory
belonging to it. For those that need a great selection of young Asian fashions that
are in style, chic, and trendy, take a look at Yfmart.
So are they really effective or not’ I will try to
dissect this subject with my fair and unbiased Jumpsoles review.

Try to include up to a teaspoon – depending on your preferences – to
your meals. Also avoid processed meats, such as bacon and deli meats
as they can contain modified salts, sugars and dangerous nitrates.
Now the list of foods below are all Paleo approved however they are not as good as the ones listed above.
