Thinking about upcoming dinner ideas, I have two things on the brain: asparagus for $1.27 a pound at Sunflower, and boneless, skinless chicken breasts for $1.88 a pound at Sprouts (Sunflower being close at $1.99 a pound). For tonight, we'll hit the asparagus, with asparagus with balsamic tomatoes from Cooking Light serving as a side for some salmon hot off the grill (fresh Alaskan sockeye is $9.99 a pound at Sprouts).
Moving on to tomorrow, we'll turn to the chicken sales, doing quick coq au vin from Bon Appetit, with some crusty bread on the side to soak up all those good juices. Since this isn't exactly seasonal (sometimes your mood just sends you in other directions), I'm hoping tomorrow's Farmer's Market will provide inspiration for a seasonal side veggie.
By Sunday, a quick veggie skillet on a hot night sounds good, so it will be fingerling potato-leek hash with Swiss chard and eggs from Cooking Light. Swiss chard or other greens can come from the Farmer's Market, and I'm hoping the leeks as well. More asparagus could either go on the side, or into the skillet too.
And that gets us through a warm weekend of planning.
