This weekend was all about my friend Faye, which is a very good thing. Faye is an amazing pastry chef who creates wonderful delights like this nut tart.
Yesterday I attended Faye’s artisan bread workshop at my local Sur La Table, which I am going to have to share more of with you in a separate post. As for the nut tart, it was awesome and I’m going to hopefully share the recipe with you in yet another post…although I’m pretty sure it’s one I’ll just let Faye make for me rather than attempt myself! I may as well let the artist do what she does best, right? 😉
I need to confess, my menu pretty much didn’t happen last week. I’m too tired right now to even remember what DID happen! Anyway, that explains the multiple repeats from last week. Forgive me!
MONDAY:
– Baked stuffing-coated chicken with a nice veggie
TUESDAY:
– Black Bean Flautas with Avocado-Tomatillo Sauce (thanks to Jessica for sharing this recipe…can’t wait to try it!)
WEDNESDAY:
– Cannelloni
THURSDAY:
– Leftovers
FRIDAY:
– Frittata
SATURDAY:
– Eat out
SUNDAY:
– Creamy Potato Leek Soup (without any cream – it’s a fab recipe!)
I want to take a moment to THANK YOU for your menus every week! They are wonderful! The blog wouldn’t be what it is without them! THANK YOU!!! Can’t wait to see what you’ve got this week! (Good job to me for using exclamation points at the end of every sentence in this paragraph!)
