More Dinner Ideas for the Week

Thinking about the rest of the week, both Whole Foods and Sprouts have an inexpensive pork roast for $1.99/lb, which brings to mind a slow cooker recipe from Cooking Light, Tuscan pork with white beans. The recipe calls for the pork shoulder that's on sale, and it's quite good with that, but I actually liked it better the time I made it with leaner pork tenderloin.

Of course, the previously mentioned salmon chowder made enough for two dinners, so that's an easy reprise.

Since Sprouts is doing 40% off ground meats, I've been looking around for something else to do with ground turkey besides turkey burgers, and came upon something that sounds great from Bon Appetit, penne with turkey and wild mushroons. Interestingly, the recipe is from a fellow Boulderite, Joan Brett. Kudos for getting published in Bon Appetit!

Finally, I'm once again looking for something to do with rice, and my freezer is stocked with sale chicken, so it might be time for a chicken curry. No recipe needed, just sauteing chicken and onions with lots of curry powder (or to taste, as they say), mixing in with rice, maybe with some peas (or apple added to the chicken while it's cooking if you're feeling wild). Can't get easier than that.
