So...my recipes have been completely unorganized, strewn all over my desk, kitchen counters, and even stuck in a corner in our dining room...and today I finally tackled the masses of torn out magazine pages, printed recipes from various websites and handouts from cooking classes. I created two main binders. One for "new recipes" and one for the tried-and-true recipes. Once we try a new recipe (depending on the success of the dish) I will transfer it to the other binder. During my weekly meal planning, I'll look though my new recipe binder and come up with a few dinners of new recipes, but also fill the week in with a favorite meal. I have a third binder with a handful of recipes for 'baby food.' I am not sure how much longer I'll need to refer to those recipes as I pretty much steam and puree the heck out of any veggie I make for Max and he's really starting to eat food that doesn't need to be pureed.
So that's the news for today!
Oh...and dinner tonight is BALT (Bacon, Avacado, Lettuce & Tomato) wraps and Sweet Potato Fries...with some Turnip Fries on the side.
B.A.L.T.
Bacon slices, cooked crispy
Romaine lettuce
Tomatoes, sliced thick
Light Mayo
Ground pepper and coarse salt
Avocado slices, if you have them
On a large lettuce leaf, spread a little light mayo. Layer large slices of tomato on top. Generously douse with fresh ground pepper and coarse sea salt. Place a few slices of crispy bacon on top, then some avocado slices. Finish with one more lettuce leaf. Wrap the entire thing in a fresh tortilla...or put on toasted bread...or if you're doing the low carb thing...wrap in the lettuce and eat!

Do you buy sweet potato fried or make your own? If you make your own, can you post how?
I slice the sweet potatoes into fry sized wedges...spread the sweet potatoes on a cookie sheet drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake in oven (set around 350) until potatoes are tender.
