Chef's Notes

I think of Beef Sirloin Kebabs and Zucchini & Bell Pepper Chicken Patties as two starting points for the week's lunches. Either can go beside Lemony Farro with Great Northern Beans and Balsamic Caramelized Onions, so the grain dish has more than one use. Garlic Roasted Mixed Sweet Potatoes give those same proteins a second pairing without repeating the whole plate.

Read the full notes

For reheating, I would put Parmesan Roasted Acorn Squash in a single layer at 350°F and start checking after 12 minutes, leaving it uncovered to help the coating dry. I would reheat Zucchini & Bell Pepper Chicken Patties separately, checking after 15 minutes and continuing until their centers are hot. The squash's thin crescents and the patties' thicker centers need separate checks.

I included Lemony Farro with Great Northern Beans and Balsamic Caramelized Onions as a substantial side with both grains and beans. Alongside Rosemary Garlic Filet Mignon with Mild Chimichurri, it adds a chewy texture that differs from the sliced beef. Oven-Roasted Mediterranean Vegetables bring zucchini, eggplant and tomatoes to that plate, while Parmesan Roasted Acorn Squash offers a separate vegetable option with a visible coating.
