Just a lonely little menu!



I love writing things I am passionate about or what is on my little mind when I post my menus but I am totally focused on getting my photo project up to date on here that I am just going to post my menu this week.  I am trying a new recipe with gnocchi this week.  I have never cooked with it...so I hoping that it goes well.  It's always so exciting yet scary to try new things in the kitchen.

MENU:

MONDAY:  Creamy Spring Asparagus Soup and Strawberry Spinach Salad (I sprinkled crumbled goat cheese on top of the salad)

TUESDAY:  Breakfast Burritos with black beans & kale

WEDNESDAY:  Out to dinner with some awesome family!

THURSDAY:  Homemade pizza with a green salad

FRIDAY:  leftovers

SATURDAY:  Picnic!!! Hummus & Veggie Wraps,  Parmesan Cheese Spread w/ baguette, and pineapple.

SUNDAY:  Kale Pesto Gnocchi **I am going to add organic cherry tomatoes and grated parmesan cheese to this recipe.**

What are you cooking this week?

Happy cooking!

  1. Hi Alyson,
    I hope you'll love gnocchi as much as we do here in Italy.

    1. Singlemama....You know after all this time...I don't know your real name. I went looking on your blog and I couldn't find it. I would love to know it. I am excited to try gnocchi. Do you have any tips on cooking it? Doesn't that parmesan cheese spread look AMAZING??

      Thanks for stopping by!

      How were the gnocchi?
      I'm afraid I'm a bit late for the tips on cooking.
      Anyway they're ready when the float.

      And they are gorgeos with simple tomato sauce, basil and mozzarella.
