Week of September 22, 2014 - Weekly Meal Ideas

As we welcome the first day of Fall next week, we have some great meal ideas to help get us in the mood!  Two favorites are the Butternut Squash Sloppy Joes, where the butternut squash adds the sweetness so processed sugars don’t have to, and the Fall Pear Salad — both of these won’t disappoint!  Just in case you have busy weeknights, like we do, the Slow Cooker BBQ Chicken Tacos with Blue Cheese Slaw and the Swiss Chard and Bacon Quesadillas will both make dinnertime easier and delicious!  The Asian Veggie Noodle Salad was a bit of a surprise – the dressing is fantastic and it came together quickly – plus the whole family liked it — always a bonus!  Coming soon…meal ideas with pumpkin, apples, and an unforgettable autumn pizza!


THE REAL DEALS!

We are happy to announce we have added a new partner to the Get REAL Wichita family…La Tradicion Tortillas!  Homemade tortillas made fresh daily with REAL ingredients — they can be found at the Old Town Farmer’s Market and are perfect for the Swiss Chard and Bacon Quesadillas this week!  While you are at the Old Town Market, be sure to pick up some Chile Slinger BBQ sauce for the Slow Cooker BBQ Chicken Tacos!  Just remember the Old Town Market hours have changed to 8 AM to Noon — through October 11!
