How do you change up your usual dinner routine?
Clockwise from top right:
{one} chicken quinoa burrito bowls from Gimme Some Oven. (And I totally, yet unintentionally, tried to style my burrito bowl just like Ali's. #foodbloggerwannabe) So, so good. I didn't miss the rice at all.
{two} fish tacos with cabbage and lime from Martha Stewart. If you want a quick dinner, these fish tacos deliver. Thin tilapia fillets really cook up in no time flat. Ground beef tacos are usually what I think of when I want a quick and easy taco night, but these were a surprisingly easy (and healthy!) substitute.
{three} thai peanut chicken from Budget Bytes. You tell me Thai peanut anything and I'm there, fork in hand. This chicken had great flavor, but I found it a little difficult to eat. We used wings and drumsticks, which to me are really hard to eat with a knife and fork. Yet a peanut sauce doesn't make for the best finger food. I'd make this again, but maybe with boneless skinless (or larger bone-in, skin-on) chicken breasts.

- My weekly budget: $75
- This week's total: $74
- Goal for next week: keep total around $60 (this is remaining budget due to previous weeks' over-spending)
- Indulgence of the week: a tub of Blue Bunny "Bunny Tracks" ice cream.
