Menu for the week of April 2 to April 5

Monday, April 2
Spaghetti Marinara and Meatballs
Garlic Bread

This traditional Italian meal is made with my homemade marinara sauce and topped with large, juicy meatballs. Using a variety of tomatoes and herbs, the sauce simmers slowly to create a light, sweet sauce that compliments the meat perfectly. This dish is served over noodles with a side of my subtle, succulent garlic bread, gently broiled to create a crunchy outside and soft interior. Add a green salad to complete the meal.

Tuesday, April 3
Homemade Wonton Soup
Crisp Wontons
Fortune Cookies


The soup itself is created from a very simple base. After making my own Asian chicken stock, using handfuls of fresh vegetables and herbs, I start building the soup. I add cabbage, carrots, green onion, and snow peas for a colorful, gorgeous, delicious soup. Finally, I add the crowning jewel: homemade pork wontons. I combine the pork with fresh garlic, ginger and a handful of flavorful seasonings. Encased in a delicate wrapping, these wontons make the soup outstanding! Served with a side of crispy wontons so you can soak up the last drop.

Wednesday, April 4
I will not be cooking this day as I have to be out of town unexpectedly. Thanks.

Thursday, April 5
Pulled Pork Sandwiches
Coleslaw

The pork is seasoned with smokey spices and sauces and cooked at a low heat all day to create a tender, tasty meat filling that falls apart at the touch. My coleslaw is a fan favorite! The sauce is made early in the day to allow the flavors to really mesh, but I combine the cabbage and sauce at the last minute. As a result, the coleslaw emerges crisp and flavorful without being soggy. Delicious!
