An easy and lightly sweet side dish if you want to make sweet potatoes just a little more fun. You can see in the picture I really got the edges a bit too dark but actually they still tasted really good like that. Just be more observant and you should be fine.
Trying out some new recipes this week but somehow falling in to a pattern anyway. Oh well, at least we got fed right?
Vegetable Miso Soup, Rice with furikake, boiled egg, apple
Vegetable Pot Pie, Salad, apples and bananas 
Dum Aloo, Rice, Salad 
Pasta with meat sauce and roasted Vegetables, side salad, rye bread, apple 
Chicken Goulash, rice, apple
I love the idea of making traditionally sweet foods into savory ones. When I saw this recipe I knew I would be making it. Despite sounding very fancy, goat cheese and pears are not exactly the most high ticket items so this is a pretty cheap recipe if you need to impress someone. On top of all of that, this is also a one bowl recipe so it’s pretty easy on the clean up as well.
Oop, the latest WordPress update almost broke my recipe card plug in but thankfully it seems to have fixed things. This week I tried not to just make boring salads every day but it’s not always the easiest to do that.
Tortilla soup, crackers and cheese, boiled egg, terrible lighting
Chicken noodle soup, bread for dipping, salad, apple
Curried lentils, rice, salad
Turkeyloaf, pasta with cream sauce, spinach/tomato salad, italian mandarins
Vegetable couscous, roast potatoes, side salad, apple
Making a big batch of cookies this weekend for a party has zapped me of the desire to make fancy food so we’re going with some delicious easy, homey dishes instead. I don’t know if I want to do anything really special for the holidays that are coming up soon but there’s a lot of celebrate lately, so I’ll just have to wait and see!

Furikake is basically a dry rice seasoning in Japan and it’s not available everywhere but if you can get a few basic ingredients you can make your own in about 5 minutes. This is really sped up with a food processor.
Some weeks you just get to a weird theme (or really, a rut) which is why this week there is just so much rice going on. Especially in the winter it’s hard to resist the siren song of carbs but hopefully next week will be more interesting carbs at least!

You can’t come up with an easier recipe. These pickles take as long as it takes to cut up a cucumber to make and then time does the rest of the work. Despite being only a few ingredients, the pickle packs a punch. While I think I like vinegar cured pickles more, these do in a pinch.
Andrew requested that I try to add a salad to every bento so you’re going to get sick of seeing all these side salads but I’ll try to keep things a little interesting at least so I don’t get bored either.
