Take french fries (or really, in this case roasted potatoes) to the next level by adding chili on top of it. This comes together surprisingly quickly and can be topped with anything from cheese to jalapenos and ranch if that’s what floats your boat.
Weekly Lunches: #24
I think I did a great job this week for the most part. Lots of fun and delicious new recipes which means next week will be more standard fare but you can’t be 110% all the time.





Menu: Movie Watcher

Recipe: Ratatouille Risotto
This is one of those “best of both worlds” type recipes. Combining all my favorite things about ratatouille and risotto until they meld into one extra delicious food is a feat. This is a bit busy as a recipe but the end result is well worth the effort and it certainly makes sure you’ll get your daily dose of vegetables in one sitting.

Recipe: Gingerbread Cookies
These were so good that I absolutely could not believe it. Please run, don’t walk to make these gingerbread cookies. The best part about them was that they were so delicious it was difficult to stop eating them and the second best part was that they not only held their shape when they cooked but they didn’t need to be chilled before rolling. Wow!

I’m trying to get back in the game and part of that is actually posting these lunches on time (since I’m obviously not great at posting menus on time – yikes, self call out!). Anyway hopefully from here on out with my new phone I’ll be able to fulfill my idea of actually posting these lunches every week!
