Menu for the week
This week I am doing a lot of repeats:
Chicken Yakitori with miso (repeat)
Pork tenderloin with quinoa and roasted summer veggies (repeat)
Turkey meatballs with whole wheat pasta in marinara (repeat)
Creamy salmon and spinach with whole wheat pasta
Since the only new recipe is the salmon, here it is:
Serves 2
1 cup whole wheat pasta (short, such as fusillini, penne or macaroni)
10 oz spinach
1/3 lb salmon
1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1 lemon
1 small clove garlic, smashed
salt & pepper
Cook pasta according to package directions.
Broil the salmon for 10 mins per inch, let rest for 5 mins.
In the last 1~2 mins of cooking, plunge the spinach into the water with the pasta. Drain the spinach and pasta together when the pasta is done cooking, and place in a large, heat-proof bowl (or back in the pot). Add yogurt, garlic and juice from the lemon to the pasta and spinach.
Roughly chop/flake the salmon and add to the pasta, then add salt and pepper to taste.
