Chicken thighs, carrots and potatoes, and broccoli salad.
The broccoli salad is something the RG helped me with, just off the top of his head. I like how he can come up with a recipe by just thinking about it. In this case, he told me to chop pecans and hazelnuts, mix them with sesame paste (2 different kinds), a little soy, sesame oil, and toss it with the broccoli. It was good, but it was too salty, so since tomatoes take salt out of a dish, we put in grape tomatoes. Worked like a charm!
For dessert we're having shortbread cookies with creamy pistachio filling. Another RG invention.

Place all of the ingredients in a medium bowl. Mix with a fork or spoon until the avocado is roughly mashed and mixed through.
Serve on lettuce wraps, toast, or in a sandwich. To store, cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
I put in some sliced in half cherry tomatoes. I really liked this & it will go in regular rotation.
