The theme this week is simple meals with some big flavors. With the abundance of salad greens in this cooler weather, I like to go for hearty salads. Even though they sometimes have many ingredients, I try to pick ones where I can make some or all of the components ahead of time to save some hassle on weeknights. Here’s what I’m planning to make this week:
Mesclun Mix

- Arugula tuna salad
- Turmeric ginger chicken soup
- Chicken curry cauliflower salad (inspired by this SweetGreen salad)
- Shredded tofu and Bok Choy stir fry (I’ll add Bok Choy after the chicken in this recipe)
- Butternut squash and leek soup
- bulgogi and lettuce cups
- Pork with black rice and Bok Choy
