Week of October 10, 2016 - Weekly Meal Ideas


It’s officially October, so you know what that means…Fall-inspired meal ideas!  We have included ideas for sweet potatoes (including a Roasted Sweet Potato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons and Oktoberfest-Inspired Potato Skins), roasted butternut squash that turns a simple kale salad into something extraordinary, and a homemade Maple Cinnamon Applesauce (and it’s easier than you think!).  Put these on your shopping list and head out to the farmers’ market for some great, local, in-season ingredients!

The quick and easy ideas this week include an Eat REAL America favorite…the Southwest Quinoa with Simple Guacamole – it is super good!  We have had many tell us “I have tried quinoa before and it never tasted THAT good!”  Paired with a lazy man’s way to make guacamole…it is definitely a memorable meal!

And, we couldn’t forget to include a great-tasting way for you to try Brussels Sprouts for the October Superfood Challenge…the Shredded Brussels Sprouts with Pistachios, Cranberries and Parmesan!

By the way, today is National Noodle Day!  Celebrate by turning spaghetti squash into noodles and enjoying it with the Spaghetti Squash Dinner Bowls or the Baked Chicken Parmesan!

We would love to hear from you – please share your successes (and challenges) with us!
