I've started planning my meals for the week, using my favorite food website - Foodgawker.com
I love that I can search different categories, or type in a combo I'm interested in (eg. rice, spinach) and it will pull up endless amounts of recipes - all with pictures. It's great. And I love that I can find recipes that are healthy, simple and cheap because I have so much to choose from. If you haven't checked out that website yet, you really should.
Anyway, here's what we'll have for dinner this week:
Monday: Today, for the first time, I made German style kale with potatoes. Supertasty!
Tuesday: Lemon grilled Green Beans over Brown Rice
Wednesday: West African Peanut Stew (it has tomatoes, cabbage, okra, sweet potatoes and peanut butter in it - yummy combo, I think)
Thursday: Chicken/Veggie Kebabs over Brown Rice, served with arugula salad
Friday: Tomato-Balsamic Soup with fresh bread
Sunday: Spinach/Sweet Potato gratin with gruyere
I'm trying all these recipes for the first time, except for the kebabs, and I'm really excited to see how it all tastes.

sounds wonderful! I'm making a Moroccan lentil soup today... :)
klingt lecker. Lass mich mal wissen was Du am liebsten davon magst, dann werde ich es auch mal ausprobieren.
Mmm kale, when I hear that word it always makes me think Grünkohl und Pinkel, probably because the only time I've actually eaten kale was when my husband was so excited to eat Grünkohl und Pinkel at his Oma's. Why would you name a food Pinkel??? Especially one that actually tastes good.
Do the Amis have any foods with names that made you think twice before eating them?
Haha...I love Gruenkohl and Pinkel, except we'd call it 'Bregenwurst'. Maybe that's a different kind of sausage. But, yeah, pinkel sure is a gross name for it. Glad to hear I've got other Gruenkohl-fans on here. You should make it for Tobi some time. It was really really easy. Basically, you chop up the kale, throw it in a big pot, and simmer it down with water for about an hour. Then you add some salt, pepper, mustard, and sauteed onions for the last 15-20 minutes, add the sausage and done. That's it.
Ummmmm.
Can we come over for dinner? That sounds like awesome food.
