foodgirl-both the quinoa salad and the quesadillas are easy to make! I don't really have recipes since I just dump things together, but below are approximate measurements. enjoy

quesadillas- 2 skindless/boneless chicken breast 3 pineapple slices (I always use fresh, but you could use canned) 1-2 jalepenos/sliced 4 large tortillas (I use wholewheat, but you can use whatever you like) 1/2 Cup pepperjack cheese 1/2 Cup BBQ sauce (I usually make my own that lasts a long time, but you could use store-bought) 1/3 Cup cilantro

Grill chicken & pineapple together on foreman grill. Shred chicken & layer chicken, pinapple, peppers onto tortilla. Sprinkle on cheese, BBQ sauce, & cilantro. Top with second tortilla and put back on foreman. Grill until browned.

Quinoa Salad:

5 ounces red quinoa 1/2 Cup diced eggplant 1/2 Cup diced cucumber 1/4 Cup diced tomotoes 1-2 garlive cloves, minced 1 can chick peas, drained 1/4 Cup sliced black olives 1 Tablespoon EVO 1/4 Cup feta cheese

Cook quinoa, co

M - chicken, broccoli, rice casserole, T- Pasta with broccoli rabe W- hot dogs and green beans Th - tofu, red pepper and couscous Friday - homemade pizza (pepperoni for my son and broccoli rabe, carmelized onions and parmesan cheese for the adults)

nakabi - could you post your quinoa salad recipe. Your quesadillas sound yummy as well!

Faye-your salmon burgers sound so good!

M-lentil soup, homemade wheat rolls T-Edamame pasta salad with sweet honey dressing, baquettes W-Asian chicken lettuce wraps, brown rice Th-Grilled salmon, quinoa salad F-BBQ chicken & pineapple quesadillas, Spanish rice, pinto beans

pss3 - I totally agree. It's very tasty and easy, but would never pay full price. I got them for .50 each after doubled $1 coupon I got from Vocal point. It's definitely worth 50 cents.

We love the Fresh Take too! Not sure I would pay full price for it but with a doubled coupon it is really worth it. The bacon cheddar ranch makes really tasty wings.

Yum thanks faye!
