This week was a rough week but it ended on a high. Yesterday we spent the day at my sister's cottage to celebrate father's day. It was a beautiful day - not too hot and not too chilly. The kids had a blast and slept soundly for the hour drive home. Today will be filled with grocery shopping, baking, laundry and cleaning.
I made some really yummy dishes this week, starting with spicy fish taco bowls. I need to make more fish for dinner because I love fish. Pablo doesn't mind it either and we'll try telling the kids it's chicken...
My favourite this week had to be mediterranean chicken kebabs with tzataiki sauce. DELICIOUS!!! I will be making this again.
The next recipe I picked because I had some cans of enchilada sauce that I brought back from Mexico that I wanted to use up. For some reason, it is hard to find enchilada sauce in our local grocery stores. Little did I know that the cans I picked up in Mexico were extra freaking hot. The label was not in English so needless to say, I drank alot of water while eating these and the kids ended up eating cereal...
For father's day, Pablo requested that I make blueberry bread again. I will happily oblige.
And my sister brought a cheesecake to the cottage yesterday and it was PHENOMENAL so I am going to make it today too.
Happy father's day to Pablo and to my dad. You are both awesome father's - thank you for that.

The chicken kabobs look great, and I love tzatziki so much I could almost eat it alone. For the enchilada sauce, have you ever tried making your own? It's not much more complicated than tomato sauce and spices. I usually just go to food.com and pick the highest rated recipe for stuff like that.
ReplyDeleteI love all the food pics, but my favorite is your husband and son sitting in front of the lake! Looks like a perfect day! Thanks, for
ReplyDeleteposting!
Happy belated father's day!
ReplyDeleteI need to send you some more recipes! I'm so behind on everything it's insane. I think I might need to make one of those cheesecakes. It looks so delicious. Thanks for the recipe.
Jessica - I have not tried to make my own but plan to for a recipe I want to make in the next week. Doesn't sound too hard to do...like you said, just tomato sauce and spices.
ReplyDeleteKM - I love that shot. Every day at the cottage is perfect! :)
