Clayton's menu idea for tonight:
Bean tostadas with tomato, onion, lettuce, sour cream, and salsa
Spanish rice (from bag)
Corn
Clementines, blueberries, and red grapes
I forgot to cut up my avocado tonight. Oh well, I will have it tomorrow for the leftovers lunch.
You?

The struedels sound good, but were they hard? You know me... it has to be easy!
We've been eating a lot of clementines too. They're so sweet and delicious and, best of all, the kids can peel them themselves.
I also found these adorable little pears that are sweet and crisp -- called speckle pears.
The tostados sound like a nice change.
Tonight we had:
-grilled turkey burgers on buns with tomatoes, red onion, cheddar cheese and condiments (ketchup, mayo, salsa -- everyone puts something different on theirs)
-yummy veggies (zucchini squash, yellow squash, portabella mushrooms) that I cup up, mixed with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and cooked in the oven for about 1/2 hour at 350 degrees
-potato kugel (recipe below)
-clementine and speckle pears
-for dessert: delicious and varied homemade cookies made the the teachers and hot chocolate with marshmellows at our school's annual holiday dessert
potato kugel:
It's easier and healthier than potato latkes, but is a traditional Jewish food. Take 2 boxes of potato latke mix (Streits or Maneshevitz), mix with 4 beaten eggs, 1/2 cup oil, 2 cups water (or it might be 4 cups - I can't remember... check the box) and 1/2 cup matza meal (found in the jewish section... like bread crumbs).
Mix everything together, bake in a baking pan at 350 for one hour. Serve plain or with sour cream and/or applesauce
p.s. did you guys ever notice that it's almost always Angela, Bonnie and me? Are we the only ones who cook? the only ones who eat? :)
Well I remembered to cut up MY avocado last night!! Those Tostados do sounds good though. As does that Potato Kugel.
Our dinner...
Avocado & Tomato salad
"Angel hair Spinachah". It sounds fancy anyway, what do you call garlic sizzled with a little butter and olive oil and spinach added to angel hair with sliced spicy veggie sausage on top and grated cheese?
Later, Cranberry muffins and sleepy time tea.

I eat but don't cook so much. Glad you do because I enjoy reading what you prepare for your families.
Spinachah--nice! And, darn it, I forgot my avocado for lunch again!
