Scallion Meatballs with Soy Ginger Glaze and Sesame Spinach. Those meatballs are always good. I’ve made this recipe a few times and I think I am comfortable enough making it without looking at the directions. The girls are big fans and I think it has a bit to do with that sweet and tangy sauce. I am a fan of that too. The spinach was a wing-it-kind-of-thing sauteed in sesame oil and garlic. Tasted good to me and we all devoured everything that there was nothing leftover.

Homemade Mexican Pizza. I learned how to make this from Ben. I used this focaccia recipe for the dough and topped it with lean ground turkey cooked in taco seasoning, Mexican cheese, tomatoes, green onions, cilantro, serrano peppers (for me and ben), and queso fresco (because it looked pretty with it on). I tripled the recipe so that I had some dough to freeze. Next week, we will be having homemade pizza again for sure.

One night this week, we just popped in frozen Trader Joe’s pizza because things were too crazy during the day to actually get to real cooking, so for those days, it’s always TJ’s to the rescue!
