What we ate: Aug. 4-8

We were out of town Aug. 7-8 and ate out a lot. So this is an abbreviated week...

Monday

PE and D not here

TA ate: chicken garlic sausage, tomato sauce, penne, shredded cheese (leftover from Sat. night dinner)

M ate: omelet with goat cheese, chives, a little ham

Tuesday

PE and D not here again

TA and M invented a tortilla layer cake:

In a pan, saute lots of garlic cloves (we chopped up 10), add 1 can pinto beans, some salsa

We took 3 medium sized tortillas

First layer: tortilla, sauteed beans, cheese (we used slices of Swiss since it's the only cow's cheese M can eat, but shredded cheddar would taste better)

Second layer: tortilla, cream cheese, beans, more salsa

Third layer: guacamole

Tip:

We should have reheated the whole thing in the oven or microwave so the cheese would melt, then added the guacamole.

Wednesday

(Eating what's left in the fridge before our trip)

broiled salmon marinated in lime juice and olive oil; leftover rice (salad served but too mooshy to eat)

Thursday

On the road...

Friday

TA's birthday; we all at Applebees in M's hometown in NC.
