Happy Saturday!!
We survived week 1 of home school! Only….30 gazillion more to go. School doesn’t officially start here in NYC until after Labor Day but we started early because, well, Remy was in desperate need of a schedule and routine and SO WERE WE.
Let’s get meal planning! This week have some real gems (no, I’m not biased at all, why do you ask?): guacamole tostadas, teriyaki veggie stir fry, pasta alla norma, chickpea salad sandwich, southwest white bean veggie burgers, and my favorite summer grain bowls. Check it out and happy eating!
