Weekly Menu - July 27th 2014


This weather is starting to really become draining!  I know, I know, I shouldn't complain because soon enough it will be dark, dreary and cold but you feel like you need a double dose of energy on days like we've been having this week!

With that in mind my menu for the week ahead requires minimal time in the kitchen but provides lots of great flavours.  A few tastes of Mexico this week, we really miss good Mexican food from our time living in the States and find it's often easier to make our own than try to find it here.  Tortillas are cheap and provide a good frame for so may great flavours, most of the cooking is quick so you're not standing over hot pans for hours on end, and a simple salad with a few slices of super healthy avocado make a great side for most Mexican food.

Happy Cooking and Eating this week!
