Time to get moving on dinner plans for the weekend. For tonight, with tilapia on sale at both Sprouts and Sunflower, I'm thinking a simple saute of fish, finished with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar, or may I'll try sherry vinegar this time. Baked potatoes will go on the side (5 pound bags of organic russets are $1.99 each at Sprouts right now), and the green veggie will get dressed up with a simple recipe from Bon Appetit, sauteed kale with smoked paprika.
Moving on to Saturday, Sprouts and Sunflower are also dukeing it out with chicken sales, reminding me of a recipe I've been wanting to try from a recent issue of Food and Wine, chicken posole. It calls for dark meat, but I'd substitute either a mix or entirely white meat to lighten it up. A big salad and warm tortillas will go on the side.
To round out the weekend, it will be time for a pasta dish, and also time for something vegetarian. Cooking Light has a wonderful recipe for a lightened version of fettuccine alfredo that has amazingly rich taste despite its reduced fat and calories. Best of both worlds.
And that will at least get us through the weekend. Get ready for the super chilly temperatures coming at us by Sunday.
