Meatless...Tuesday?

Life seriously could not be more chaotic these days. The kids have been in zoo camp in Denver this week and Marc has been at an education conference, which means I've been the limo back and forth from Evergreen to Denver. Then there's that pesky little thing called work. I don't know how people with 6 kids, like Design Mom, do it. I'm sinking quickly!

Our Meatless Monday consisted of frozen pizza (I mean, I did actually cook it, if you're wondering.) but I found time to make a real dinner on Tuesday. I got a sample Near East's Toasted Pine Nut Couscous in the mail last week, along with a recipe that I promptly lost. Instead I made this veggie stir fry from Veg Web:

    1/3 cup whole corn kernels
    1/4 cup finely chopped carrots
    1 serving of "herbed" couscous
    1-2 cups baby spinach
    2 teaspoons olive oil
    black pepper
    soy sauce

I left out the soy sauce - okay, I actually forgot it - but it was great without. One box of couscous, one carrot, half a can of corn and 2 cups of spinach made enough for myself and 3 kiddos, with a tiny bit left over for lunch today. I'll probably double the recipe next time to have more leftovers.
