Andy and I bought a healthy cookbook from Company's Coming and have made a meal plan for the week. Our first kick at the healthy dinner menu was a steak mushroom bun and apple carrot slaw.
Now to be honest, I've been on the 20 dinner rotation for months, if not years, and it was about time I got back making something from a recipe... and it was super yummy.
Yummy steak and mushrooms and then it was placed on a bed of spinach - the spinach was tossed with some light mayo, sesame oil and ginger - man - it was soo good! Tonight I made dill turkey burgers - yummy too - but that steak and the spinach together - I'm still thinking about how good it was.. and we made it - which makes it even better.

I actually just bought a cookbook the other day after deciding I need to expand my rotation. I have about a 5 dinner rotation and it is wearing on me. Another mom I know online only from a moms message board here in Regina has a food blog where she posts new recipes. She has some tasty looking recipes on it.

btw, what do you think of the Company's Coming book? Worth buying?
Well I have a lot of the Company's Coming books.. a lot. I've cooked 5 recipes so far from the book and each of them have been pretty good. The turkey burgers last night weren't anything super special - but tonight I made sesame pork and a tofu and cashew stir fry and I know.. really how could tofu and cashews be good but I thought - hey - live outside the box - do it - live it - so I made it and it was really good... I mean WAY better than I thought.
So I would say yes - this is a good one to pick up and try out - but don't be like me - a cook book collector - use them - love them... I'm trying to practice is now :) And thanks for blog suggestion I'll go and check it out...
You made me hungry with your description of the steak with spinach. Which book was it from?
I love Company's Coming cookbooks and created a page about them at Company's Coming. I hope you'll visit.

The recipe book was Healthy in a Hurry - I think it is a new one.. but can't say for sure.
Thanks for stopping by :)
