LEE'S WEEK OF EATS




Lee's Week of Eats is a Menu Plan I bring you every Friday.  Just a little slice of inspiration to get your weekend going.

Monday:
Tortilla soup with avocado slices and cilantro crema

Tuesday:
White bean, Shallot and Kalamata olive Cassoulet
Baby greens with dill and mushrooms
Sesame Pita Bread
 
Wednesday: 
Frisee salad with grapefruit, lime vinaigrette and pepitas
Baguette
Slivers of apple and Piave Vecchio cheese
Crisp glass of white wine
 
Thursday:
Golden Indian lentils
Garlic naan
Channa masala
Steamed green beans
Chutneys of all sorts
Cucumber raita

Friday, Breakfast for dinner:
Whole wheat pancakes with Grapefruit and Orange slivers 
Toasted Almonds and Chantilly Whipped Cream
Baked eggs with thyme and cream

Whole Wheat Pancakes 
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons honey
1 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 eggs

In a large mixing bowl, stir together the dry ingredients.  In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, buttermilk, canola oil and eggs.  Stir the wet into the dry, careful not to over mix.  Grease a skillet with a little butter,  on medium high heat and cook pancakes until bubbles appear.  Flip, and cook about two minutes more.  Serve with almonds and citrus fruits -- and plenty of Maple Syrup and Cream, if you dare.

  1. Hey Leela,
    I love your "week of eats"! They're all so thoughtful and inspiring.
    I'm friends with Kate Zonis; she told me about you because I have a blog and am interested in working as a private chef, and food writer.
    I'm a huge fan of your's, and the Kitchn too!
