Week 10 Menu Plan

Six Kinds of Greens in a Big Stack on the Table
We Be Eating our Greens!

Featuring radishes, lettuce, and greens, greens, greens


More greens than ever this week, healthful and delicious: spinach, cabbage, mei qing choi, chard, beet and radish greens. A new recipe for Tuscan Spinach with garlic on Friday, and a potluck dish on Saturday "to be invented" with chard, mei qing choi, scallions, green garlic, and Italian herbs. Our hostess (a faithful follower of this blog) has said in advance that she will love it, how gracious is that? I also plan to bring my tried-and-true chocolate-dipped strawberries, which will leave fellow diners with a sweet memory regardless of the outcome of the greens dish.

I’m defrosting the frozen Cornish game hens that we bought on sale a couple of months back. Hopefully I will get an inspired idea about how to use them by the time they thaw. I’m really winging it this week. May culinary inspiration be in balance with good sense!
