Monday, April 20: Roasted Sausages, Potatoes, and Cabbage (Round 2!)

I don’t eat a lot of meat, but when I do, it’s Seemore Sausages :). Love these “broccoli melt” sausages, made with humanely raised pork, broccolini, pepper jack, and pepperoncini peppers. Tonight I served them with a huge pile of roasted tomatoes (that I tossed with the cheesy, spicy sausage drippings) and mustardy roasted cabbage. A great comfort food dinner!

Saturday, April 18: Toasts with Arugula Pesto, Roasted Tomatoes, and Mozzarella

Ummm have I mentioned I love toast? :) This week’s version has leftover homemade arugula pesto (that I made for pesto farro), slow-roasted tomatoes, and melty mozz. So, so, so good. (So good, in fact, that we came dangerously close to finishing the entire loaf of bread.)

Thursday, April 16: Beans + Greens + Polenta (Round 2!)

Tonight’s dinner: beans + greens + polenta! (See also: lemon, garlic, olive oil, parm, capers.) I love how comforting a big pot of creamy, savory polenta is, and the combination of cheesy polenta with bright and zippy lemon-spritzed kale, garlicky beans, and tangy capers is to die for.

Thursday, April 16: Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Freezer Fudge

This peanut butter cookie dough freezer fudge is only three ingredients (four if you add chocolate chips) and is the perfect sweet treat. Matt and I have basically been eating it as a dessert after every meal of the day! You keep it in the freezer so it has the most delicious chewy texture and really tastes like cookie dough. YUM.

Wednesday, April 15: Farro with Arugula Pesto and Veggies (Round 2!)

Tonight’s very green dinner: farro, veggies (asparagus + zucchini), and our favorite homemade arugula pesto. This is a repeat meal, since we loved it so much the first time! Tonight we used asparagus and zucchini, but use whatever you have on hand — green beans, peas, grape tomatoes, spinach or kale would all be good!
