As promised in last week’s post, we did in fact eat Glazed Pork Cutlets with Japanese Slaw, the BLT Salad and Baked Chicken Taquitos from I Heart Naptime Cookbook…and Steak with leftover Bearnaise Sauce.   The salad was definitely the week’s winner!  

BUT the surprise was that I made Chrissy Teigan’s internet famous banana bread thanks to the child’s sudden dislike of bananas in his lunch.

Believe me, this banana bread is more cake than bread but it 100% lives up to its hype.  I don’t know if I’ve written about it before but honestly, walk, do not run to the shops to buy bananas and then wait all week for them to ripen so that you can make this bread/cake.  It is the reason I bring back Vanilla Jell-o Pudding Mix back from the US every time I go.  So good.  So so good. If you’re looking for a reason to eat cake for breakfast, this is 100% it.

Oh, and lest you think I was exaggerating about Burgerhead and Butter were last week, Concrete Playground published a list and they were both on it!

This week, we’re having Sweet Pork Hawaiian Haystacks (also from I Heart Naptime), Gazpacho with the leftover croutons from last week’s BLT Salad, standard Old El Paso taco kit tacos for Taco Tuesday, and All Day Noodles with Fried Egg and Furikake.

It will be a pretty easy cooking week since I’ll be in the office most days. The haystacks are made using slow cooked pulled pork and the other meals are pretty quick and easy too!

Oh- and the smallest member of our household won his very first Tennis Tournament! One more trophy for the trophy cabinet!
