Foodie Friday

Fast, yummy, healthy weeknight dinners that actually taste good!

So im going to try something kinda new and post what we had for dinner this week? Whacha think?? This week has been beautiful so we have grilled almost every night this week! Tomorrow it's going to rain...so we aren't grilling :(

Monday - Grilled pork tenderloin - I made kind of an asian spicy flare..I used spicy brown mustard, peanut sauce, soy sauce, onions, garlic and pepper and spread it all over the pork and while Chris grilled he continued to coat with marinade.
served with jasmine rice seasoned with peanut and soy sauces with roasted broccoli and edamame yummo
Tuesday: grilled turkey burgers - I use ground turkey, feta cheese, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt & pepper and a touch or horseradish....then serve on the flat whole wheat sandwich rolls with arugula, tomato. We had sweet potato fries on the side with steamed broccoli
Wednesday - BBQ chicken, homemade black eyed peas, & corn on the cob..I made the bbq sauce with ketchup, spicy mustard, balsamic vinegar, little soy sauce and brown sugar, I boiled the black eyed peas with bacon, onions and garlic!
Thursday: was grilled chicken caesar salad wraps- seasoned chicken with rosemary, garlic and little touch of salt. wraps were red onion, arugula, parmesan cheese, tomato on whole wheat wrap with caesar salad dressing. Served with steamed green beans and sweet potato fries! We love those!! :)
Friday- grilled fish tacos with homemade chips and salsa - my mom has been making homemade salsa since I can remember it is soo good! and soo easy! 2 cans of diced tomatoes, I use rotel tomatoes with jalapenos, 1/2-1 jalapeno with the seeds-the seeds are what make it super spicy so be careful...cilantro, lime juice, onion, garlic and that's it!! oh salt per taste. Then I quarter corn tortillas and fry them in hot canola oil. I have also used olive oil and they turn out like the tortilla gold chips pretty tasty!!
Saturday: will be turkey meatball subs with provolone on homemade whole wheat french buns. with some side??
so what have you made this week?
