May 9- 15

With school coming to and end, various children's activities and delivering for the Produce Box, I have to admit I have fallen a little off my game.  But despite not having an organized weekly menu or blogging regularly about it, I have managed to cook through my Box contents.

This week my Box consists of Bok Choy, Spring Onions, Blueberries, Strawberries, Carrots and Broccoli.  I also requested an add on of Asparagus.

Wednesday, May 9-  I decided on an easy dinner of pasta and turkey meatballs, accompanied by a delicious loaf of Great Harvest Bread Company's Garlic and Cheddar.

Thursday, May 10-  Book Club tonight and down one less family member for dinner dictates a simple meal.  Blueberry Pancake, breakfast it's what's for dinner!

Friday, May 11-  Stir Fry!  I'm using some of the carrots, onions, bok choy and broccili to make a stir fry meal tonight.  I'll serve it over rice.  My husband always seems to get a great stir fry going off the cuff.  I'll be his sous chef tonight.

Saturday, May 12-  Artapalooza- school event tonight.  We might further support the school with the purchase of hotdog dinners.

Sunday, May 13-  Given it's Mother's Day I will request my husband to grill some Meat House marinated steak tips along with grilled asparagus (from our Box) and red potatoes.

Monday, May 14-  Pork Chops, corn on the cob and Sweet Potato Casserole will round out tonight's meal.  I'll be using sweet potatoes from previous Boxes.
