Back to reality

We have returned from a three week vacation to Poland. (I'll do some posts later about all the amazing things we did, saw and ate!)   I only made occasional breakfasts so I had the longest break from cooking ever-  still did laundry, for the record though not the usual amount.  Now, it is back to reality.  I'm going to scale back our eating and try to go a bit lighter.  We ate a lot of meat and ice-cream on our holiday so I want to have a bit more veggie and seafood meals.  On that note, we finished off our holiday with grilled steak with portobellos, baked potato and green salad.  That was Hubby's idea, I wanted to have veggie burgers....

So this is what the week will look like:

Monday: Vegetarian chili with rice and salad (Soccer)
Tuesday: Tilapia with rice and sauteed bok choy
Wednesday: Turkey burgers with caramelized onion, oven fries and cucumber salad (mizeria)
Thursday: Sausages on the BBQ with grilled mushrooms and quinoa salad
Friday: Pasta with sauce and salad
Saturday:  TBA (maybe steak fajitas) (Soccer)
Sunday: Father's Day BBQ

For lunch we're going to have mostly soups and I am going to have onion sandwiches (Vidalia onions are in season!) And I still need to decide what to make for Hubby for his Father's Day breakfast.  I think we'll go with bacon and eggs and freshly squeezed OJ... Fun times ahead!

I want to learn to make a few more Polish meals in the months ahead and master the art of making zapiekanki and pierogi.
