A Week of Eats

We were supposed to land in Regina around 4:30 p.m. on Saturday 23rd, after coming home from Havana.  We had to do a quick detour to Saskatoon, as the visibility was too bad in Regina to land, but were back in the air again after only an hour in Saskatoon.  We landed at 8:30 p.m., and decided to head straight to the grocery store, without even stopping at home to drop off our luggage.  I had made a meal plan and grocery list on the flight, so we were good to go!

The next morning, after a great sleep, I made a veggie frittata, toast, and smoothies for breakfast:


That evening we cooked dak galbi and a batch of pork noodles.  I made a berry crisp for dessert. 


There was enough food for dinner Sunday and Monday, as well as work lunches for a couple of days.

On Tuesday evening we had trout with a kohlrabi slaw, served over a yogurt sauce:


Dinner on Wednesday was a rosé meat sauce over some interestingly shaped noodles that we found in PC's Black Label section.  We wanted a quick sauce, so we just cooked up ground beef in olive oil until done, then added two jars of rosé sauce, and a few splashes of milk to thin it out.  It was delicious!


Before Spanish class on Thursday we made a vegetarian stir fry.


On Friday we had Greek chicken, rice, and a roasted beet/ mushroom mixture.


For a third weekend in a row of traveling and staying in hotels, we spent this past weekend in Saskatoon to see my mom.

I had some satay beef soup for lunch on Saturday:


And Afghani food for dinner:

 

Breakfast on Sunday:


And donair for lunch:


We are very ready for a weekend at home, and other than tomorrow night, we don't plan to leave the house again until Monday morning.

How was your week?  What are your plans for the weekend?  
What have you been cooking lately?

Yum! I bet it felt good to get back into the kitchen after your vacation. Your week of eats looks delicious! I hope this past weekend at home was a great one. You've been on the go so much lately between your trip and visiting your mom!

We had a retirement party on Saturday night and that was all we had planned for a weekend. A house came on the market Friday morning and we ended up making an offer on Saturday but found out on Sunday that it wasn't accepted. There were 5 offers as it was a beautiful housed that was priced to sell. I'm trying to forget the beautiful kitchen... Womp womp.
