This week’s menu was compiled based on the products featured in this week’s IGA Quebec flyer. How practical!
Monday: Grilled Zucchini Toasts with Tomato, Strawberries and Mint Salad

Wednesday: Shrimp Stir-Fry with Charred Lemon
Stir-fries are always a winning meal idea; once you get home from work, dinner can be on the table in a flash. This version is bursting with bright flavour thanks to the browned lemon and, best of all, it can be prepared in a single frying pan.
Thursday: Asparagus and Ham Gnocchi
This is a tasty meal that is so simple to throw together. Store-bought gnocchi is such a useful ingredient to have on hand, and it pairs beautifully here with seasonal asparagus and savoury white ham.

Friday: Lamb Burgers with Arugula Pesto and Roasted Onion
Burgers for dinner; that’s what the warmer season is all about. This recipe is a refreshing upgrade from the usual beef variety, opting for a gamier lamb instead. Along with roasted onions, a bright arugula pesto and creamy sour cream, this is truly a more refined (but by no means pretentious!) burger.
