{my favourite meals from this week}

we've been trying to avoid eating out lately to save some money
(we are saving up for a new car since joel's broke down & we are reallly
hoping to get one before we head on our road trip next month!)
although i did just get a coupon in the mail for my  favorite restaurant
{kruse & muer}, so we may just have to splurge a little this weekend..
especially considering we never did celebrate me reaching 500 sales
& joel getting his full counseling license.

anyway, here's some yummy food we ate this week :)
we're taking advantage of being able to have weeknight meals together
because once the fall comes, joel will be busy every.single.weeknight. (sad face)
one more year until he finishes classes for his PhD!!!


{1} homemade pizza with mozzarella, feta, chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, kalamata olive, artichokes & fresh basil {2} caprese salad with arugula {3} salmon with rosemary, lemon & capers
*not pictured :: lemon risotto with seared scallops & arugula salad. so.good. 
also, baked lemon chicken on orzo with roasted broccoli.

what have you been cooking lately?
