This week we’re incorporating dark leafy greens and sunny citrus in our weeknight dinners.
Has it been a while since youve had a fresh multi-colored salad?
Weve been living squarely within standard January fare: stews, braises, casseroles, and roasted vegetables.
All wonderful and delicious, but Im ready for bright and fresh flavors and textures.
The produce aisle can feel drab in the winter.
Citrus lasts the longest (even two to four weeks) stored in the crisper.

Quick tip: Room temperature citrus is easier to squeeze than cold citrus.
I hope you enjoy this meal plan.
All you need is a nicecrusty bread.

The chicken will taste delicious whether or not you pound it flat.

Bake the spaghetti squash ahead of time for an extra quick dinner.
