Meal Plan: Week 2

Last weeks menu was a success. The highlight for my husband and I was Thursday night's Indian food! All the dishes came out fantastic. Bridget loved the Vegetable Biryani (a very flavorful basmati rice with vegetables, raisins, and the right amount of spices) the most. George and Liam were not too keen on the Indian food. George ate only the raisins in the rice and ate most of his Saag Aloo (spinach and potatoes). The Chana Masala was too spicy for the children, and that was using only a sprinkle of cayenne instead of the "large pinch" the recipe called for. I definitely plan on making Indian food again, and hopefully over time the boys will acquire a taste for India's unique spices.

There is nothing too exciting on the menu this week as far as new flavors go. With the cold temperatures we've been having lately, I'm most looking forward to anything warm.
