Sometimes we eat frozen burritos and ramen noodles. Right now I get to blame it on working full time and random things that fill the evenings. (Crochet lessons? True story.) But let's be honest, we'll probably always sometimes eat frozen burritos and ramen noodles. I mean, the thought of cooking every day sometimes gives me this special type of anxiety that also manifests itself anytime I enter a grocery store with a shopping list that I know is at least a 60-minuter. [shudder.]
But then there are days we do pretty well around here. I mean, I don't hear any complaints (from the boy who ate frozen burritos and spaghetti for four years straight, but magically made it to our wedding day alive and well). So if you think you might enjoy them as much as we did, here are some recipes you should try!
Bombay House inspired Chicken Tikka Masala |
Roast with Stuffed Mushrooms |
Gluten-free Sweet Potato Black Bean Enchiladas |
And my self-titled "I miss Zupa's so incredibly much" Chicken Chop Salad |
And on top of that Chicken Tikka Masala recipe up there, I even made some Chickpea Curry (thanks for the recipe, Diana!). Curry is not my thing... Ok, all Indian food is not my thing. But I really don't like when I don't like food, so I have to give it a try once in a while. And you know what? It was delicious. There is hope for me and curry. We just might be happy together someday.
Not tomorrow. But, someday.
My my my, how you've changed. You are the one kid I remember having to bribe by offering you 50 cents to try one mouthful of something good. Heh. (And don't worry, you'll come around to curry.)
