meal 1:
Grilled zucchini, yellow squash, onion, brussel sprouts, grape tomatoes, broccoli, and some asparagus pieces. I make a "dressing" of olive oil (very little), lemon juice, fresh grated garlic, salt and pepper, and chopped basil. I then either make wild rice, or quinoa, place the grilled veggies over that, and then pour on a little "dressing". It's fantastic. I might sub different veggies in there, like leeks, red peppers, green peppers, cauliflower, etc.
Meal 2: It's my fridge cleaning meal. I'll get a large pot and throw in a little bit of olive oil. Then I chop up every last piece of veggies in the fridge. I'm talking everythink you can imagine veggie wise, all fresh though. Then I'll throw in some beans. My favorite are black or navy. Then I'll add a bit of white vinegar, some yellow mustard, chili powder, and fresh grated garlic, and then okra as a thickening agent. I'll let it simmer for 30 minutes or so. My wife calls it Rattatouille, but I don't think it's more than a big pot of chili type meal. Regardless, it's also fantastic.
Then, a couple times a week, I'll grill some salmon and just have some of the leftovers from the above meals, or similar meals to have as sides.
Works for me.
