Hi, loves! And welcome new friends! I often speak to you all like you’ve been here the whole year plus we’ve been doing this, and I forget that this is new for some of you. This week errs on the easy side of what we’re used to, and I feel like there are seasons of when I feel up for a dinner project, and many nights I do not. You’ve been hustling a lot of dinners, you deserve a simple week!

The English muffin pizzas are a nod to my childhood - my mom made these. I can still imagine the solid layer of pepperoni we managed to fit on top of those small muffs :) All you back to school folks may appreciate a 15-minute dinner this week. Many of you have mentioned loving those citrus shrimp bowls, so we’re bringing those back this week. The fattoush is simple, and leaves room for your taste. The notes are in there to add feta, grilled chicken or what not to fill it out. I buy the lavash from Trader Joes and use those for the crispy bits - they also make great wraps for kids lunches. And I made these frozen bananas for after school treats and I’ve eaten most of them. Maybe make extra.

Never hesitate with questions, big or small. Have a great weekend!
