This is a week of oldie-but-goodie SavoryGirl favorites. All of these recipes are nice and easy, healthy and delicious…starting off with Chicken & Chickpea Stew. Hearty, rustic and soul satisfying for a cool almost Spring Sunday dinner. On Monday we’ll make one of my very first “gourmet” meals. Doesn’t feel quite so gourmet to me anymore, but it still holds a special place in my heart…creamy Parmesan Grits topped with a flavorful Shrimp & Artichoke mixture. In a nod to Spring, we’ll serve this alongside a fabulous, easy asparagus salad. Our local asparagus has just started appearing in our farmer’s market last weekend so I’m just dying to start eating it up!
Last, but not least we’ll make one of our favorite easy dinners, Lentil Country Supper. When looking at the recipe it sounds as though it may be a bit boring, but trust me, there’s just something about the flavor combination here that elevates the simplicity of this dish and makes it divine. This dish always makes me fantasize about being a farmer and living the simple life…sometimes simple really is best. The rest of the week we’ll rely on leftovers and finish off the week with a fun birthday celebration for a good friend.
