Week of December 7, 2015 - Weekly Meal Ideas

We hope everyone was able to enjoy some fantastic Thanksgiving dishes…and discovered some great-tasting uses for all those leftovers!

If EASY needs to be on the menu (maybe you are recovering from last week or preparing for the next holiday rush), you will love this week’s meal ideas!  The Mediterranean Pork Tenderloin is crazy good, especially with the Cranberry and Pecan Couscous.  And, the Tuna Lettuce Wraps with Mango and Jalapeño and the Squash Wild Rice Skillet will make it simple to get an incredibly tasty dinner on the table fast!

We think you will also like the healthy spin on Caesar Salad…the dressing has excellent flavor and the avocado gives it a creamy texture!

Have you ever struggled with ideas what to do with turnips or other root vegetables?  Some say they are intimidating or strange-looking…we’ve even heard “they taste like dirt!”  We have a delicious idea…Savory Root Vegetable Soup!  You can even mix it up and add leftover chicken or turkey.

If you have a holiday party coming up, consider serving (or taking) the Layered Mediterranean Dip — it’s a simple, yet impressive, crowd-pleaser!  More party ideas and holiday side dishes coming soon!

Thank you for your help in continuing to grow our community of people who are realizing the amazing taste, nutrition and other benefits of keeping it simple and EATING REAL!
