And Thanksgiving is next week, so this Costco run absolutely needed to happen.<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center;\">DINING OUT = $170<\/h6>\n<p>Eek, yes we spent a lot of money on our date night.

It\u2019s better than it sounds, in fact it was delicious. Prepping dinner was nearly impossible tonight with both boys whining and screaming and complaining and crying on the kitchen floor. My husband and daughter were outside raking leaves.<\/p>\n<h6>MONDAY LUNCH<\/h6>\n<p>The baby and I went on a nice long stroller walk and really worked up an appetite. When we got back, I finished off the two stuffed peppers from last week and paired it with a bowl of Saturday nights corn chowder, plus a slice or two of crusty bread.<\/p>\n<h6>MONDAY DINNER<\/h6>\n<p>I\u2019m testing out a Shephard\u2019s Pie recipe tonight for my Thursday class. I don\u2019t know why this isn\u2019t on my winter meal rotation, it was SO GOOD. It took a bit longer than I anticipated to prep, but luckily the baby napped so I was able to relax while cooking.<\/p>\n<h6>TUESDAY LUNCH<\/h6>\n<p>Leftover Shephard\u2019s Pie, because YUM. I tried giving the baby the Chicken Teriyaki for lunch, and he wanted none of it. Screamed for our Shephard\u2019s Pie. So he, my husband, and I finished off the rest of last nights casserole.<\/p>\n<h6>TUESDAY DINNER<\/h6>\n<p>Tonight, my husband and I are going out, and plan on feeding the kids Sunday\u2019s leftover Chicken Teriyaki. Because I\u2019m not cooking dinner tonight, I took the opportunity after preschool to get ahead of our Thanksgiving baking. The kids helped me prep two batches of chocolate chip cookies and apple cider donuts \u2013 so good!<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, we had a fantastic night out at a new-to-us restaurant. We\u2019re trying to eat our way through our new neighborhoods restaurants, and so far it\u2019s been a blast. I ordered salmon with wild mushrooms and my husband ordered short ribs with mash and green beans, we each had a glass of wine, a handful of oysters to start, and a chocolate torte for dessert. It was all heavenly, and eye-watering expensive. $170 with tip.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2383\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.daraboxer.com\/theminimalisttable\/what-we-ate-this-week-12\/img_3180\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.daraboxer.com\/theminimalisttable\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_3180-scaled.jpeg?fit=1920%2C2560&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1920,2560\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 11&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1699992038&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.25&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;320&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.025&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_3180\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.daraboxer.com\/theminimalisttable\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_3180-scaled.jpeg?fit=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2383\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.daraboxer.com\/theminimalisttable\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_3180.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.daraboxer.com\/theminimalisttable\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_3180-scaled.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.daraboxer.com\/theminimalisttable\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_3180-scaled.jpeg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.daraboxer.com\/theminimalisttable\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_3180-scaled.jpeg?resize=150%2C200&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.daraboxer.com\/theminimalisttable\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_3180-scaled.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.daraboxer.com\/theminimalisttable\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_3180-scaled.jpeg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.daraboxer.com\/theminimalisttable\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMG_3180-scaled.jpeg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<h6>WEDNESDAY LUNCH<\/h6>\n<p>Last nights salmon &amp; short ribs leftovers.
