I don't often attempt such an involved meal during the week, but this is what we had for dinner tonight.
Mini Pork Meatloaves
1 lb ground pork (serves three, make a pound and a half to serve four, upping the other ingredients)
3 plum tomatoes, peeled and diced (about a cup's worth)
1 onion diced and sauted in a little olive oil
2 slices of whole wheat bread, toasted and broken into little bits
Parlsey, a handful chopped
Salt and pepper
Method: mix the above together in a bowl. Lightly grease a muffin tin. Pack the meat mixture into the cups. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes, or until a meat thermometer registers 170 degrees.
Rice with Pureed Pumpkin
Half an onion, chopped fine
Sage and thyme
Salt and pepper
1-2 cups pureed pumpkin (or butternut squash)
2 cups leftover rice
Method: saute the onion in a little olive oil. Add the other ingredients and cook until hot.
Green Vegetable
My mother believed that a meal should include two vegetables and that the vegetables should be two different colors. Tonight I made wax beans to compliment the pumpkin.
