Week Four Menu & Crab Salad Sandwich

Sad that the long weekend is almost to an end. The last couple days went by so quickly. Sorry I am just getting to my posts now. The temperature has been so humid that I don't think my brain could have even processed the thoughts requires to create a post. lol.

I did have to post-pone making the Sweet Potato Spread from last week's menu. It really does require a food processor so I can't get around that. I will hopefully be getting one in the next couple weeks.

Here's what to expect in this 4th week:

  • Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Creamy Polenta - page 15
  • Garlic Bruschetta - page 155
  • Quick White Bean & Spinach Ravioli - page 57
  • Simple Yet Elegant Sole & Asparagus Baked in Parchment - page 179
  • Easy Egg Custard with Fresh Peaches - page 212
Due to the heat over this Canada Day long weekend, there was not a whole lot of cooking going on in my kitchen. We spent a good deal of time down on the Waterfront and meals to go.

I did make our lunches yesterday after we went grocery shopping. I created some Crab Salad Sandwiches.

Crab Salad Sandwich  - July 1st, 2012
Imitation crab meat was on sale so we bought a package and some fresh crusty rolls.

I made the salad from several ingredients that I thought would go well together:
  • Red Onion
  • Mango
  • Avocado
  • Capers
  • Miracle Whip
  • Pineapple Curry Dressing
  • Lime Zest
This was a very nice and light lunch. You got a little bit of curry flavour in every bite. In fact, if I made this again, I would use more of the curry dressing.

There is actually some still left over and it will be my lunch tomorrow. :)

Tonight I did make another recipe from the book. Post to follow.
