June 27 to July 1, 2022: What to Cook This Week

Presented by
IGA

From a vegetarian wrap to a fresh and tasty burger, the five recipes featured here are tried and true meal ideas the whole family will love. Check out what’s for dinner this week!

 

This week’s menu was compiled based on the products featured in this week’s IGA Quebec flyer. How practical!

Monday: Cherry Tomato and Zucchini Spaghetti

Picked up tomatoes and zucchini from the grocery store? Then this simple pasta dish is a must for dinner tonight. It is quick and easy to make, bold in flavour and simply beautiful to look at. 

Tuesday: Sumac Chicken with Marinated Cucumbers

Meet your new favourite chicken recipe! The chicken breast is coated in a sumac and harissa marinade before grilling, so you get a wonderful spicy, tangy and citrusy piece of meat. Paired with a refreshing side of marinated cucumber, it’s the perfect summertime dinner.

Wednesday: Chickpea Pita Sandwiches

We enjoy a tasty shish taouk, that popular Lebanese chicken often wrapped in a warm pita bread. But if you follow a vegetarian diet, that doesn’t mean you can’t partake in its tastiness! This version swaps the meat with seasoned chickpeas, which are then baked and served as a wrap with yogurt sauce. Delicious!

Thursday: Broccoli Tabbouleh with Grilled Bell Peppers and Pork Tenderloin

Featuring bulgur and fresh herbs, tabbouleh makes for a very popular side dish. But we’ve bulked it up by adding broccoli, and served it along with pork tenderloin and topped with an egg, making for a pretty fantastic main.

Friday: Veal and Watermelon Burgers

Summer is watermelon season, but instead of only enjoying it as a refreshing treat, find other ways to utilize it. For example, adding a few slices with some fennel fronds and a squeeze of lime juice can certainly elevate your usual burger into something special.
