The Weekly Menu Oct. 23, 2017
What’s On the Menu this week?
Well we’re making a lot of pasta and meatballs this week, because I’ve had trouble with my teeth and I’m searching for soft foods that are easy to chew.
I’ve got a temporary crown on one side and a missing molar on the other side, so eating has been a little difficult. I should be getting the permanent crown this week. And I will be very happy for this phase of my life to be over. Anyway, it’s a good enough reason to indulge a little in gluten-free carb fest.
A great reason to make that Smoked Gouda Goat Cheesy Broccoli Rice again. It was so ridiculous good! Being able to eat goat cheese has been the most wonderful thing. Finds more goat milk recipes here –> A2 casein recipes.
Meatballs
And you know I love a meatball, so I thought we would try out a couple new meatball recipes this week.
First up on the menu this week is a low carb potsticker Asian soup with meatballs that sound amazing. Made with ground turkey, almond flour, ginger, scallions, gluten- free soy sauce and garlic powder. Yum. We will be using coconut aminos instead of GF soy sauce and rice noodles.
I’m also super excited to try SkinnyTaste’s salisbury steak meatballs with a little mashies and my homemade gravy.
It’s super easy to make the gravy. I take 1 part ghee, 1 part gluten-free flour. Make a roux by cooking for about 2 minutes. Then add a ton of pepper and a little salt. Seasoned salt is pretty good in gravy, too. And either beef broth or chicken stock until I get the desired consistency and flavor.
Soft foods on the weekly menu this October. Okay so here we go!
