the fam's favorite dinner yet





well, there is one thing you can expect from the mullies...pictures of food in reality time.  
no staged, pretty martha stewart action here.  can you tell i snap and go?

i was looking at that above picture pondering, jeesh, does that even look appetizing??  

hahahahahahahaha

i guess you'll just have to trust me and hopefully i'll get better at this:)


tonight's dinner inspo:


sometimes i follow a recipe.
sometimes i google ingredients to get inspiration and then turn it into something else.  
i got lucky tonight with the latter and everybody l.o.v.e.d it.  


tommy likes it.  no feeding, no cajoling...he's like french or something. 

the mullies italian ground beef and quinoa

1 lb grass fed organic ground beef
1 large organic onion chopped
(cook together and drain fat)
1 T worcestershire sauce (i found a bottle with no artificial ingredients at williams sonoma)
1 t dried basil
1 t dried oregano
1 t dried parsley
1 c coconut milk
1 c organic beef stock
1 cube vegan bouillon
1 c leftover cooked quinoa (if you add uncooked quinoa...  cook at least 20 minutes or until tender)
(add above ingredients to meat and onions.  bring to boil and simmer until ready to serve).

sides:
sliced organic pears
gluten free garlic bread - i saved the frozen "butts" of the udi's sandwich bread, spread earth's best natural buttery spread & garlic salt over one side and baked them with the broccoli for about 5 minutes.

it's the first 100% happy family eating dinner since we started 52 days ago...
everybody noticed, it was a celebration...i want more of these!!
