Cilantro Mint Dipping Sauce with breaded halibut

A quick meal pre-Thanksgiving meal for the fam... I'm posting this because my kids actually ate it (only because they thought it was chicken- yeah!)

Cilantro Mint Dipping Sauce with breaded Halibut
2 cups cilantro leaves
12 large fresh mint leaves
1 jalepeno pepper or chili pepper
2 tbsp water
2 tbsp canola oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt

Mix ingedients in a food processor. Add more tbsp water if needed. Set sauce aside.
Melt 2 tbsp butter. Dip halibut filets in butter, then coat with breadcrumbs/ Panko. Fry in canola oil until browned. Serve with dipping sauce.

Meal Plan Nov 14th- Nov 19

This afternoon I made some citrus smoothies- everyone is fighting sickness right now... I used fresh squeezed grapefruits, lemons, and oranges, bananas, tablespoon honey, about 1 cup yogurt, 2 handfuls of ice and about 2 tablespoons phyillium husks (which my daughter believes is a type of sugar).

I found a recipe for Thai curry that I can't wait to try, after being inspired by our date night this weekend. This paste can be mixed in with veges, shrimp, chicken or pork. Looks great! I think this will freeze well too if I add some olive or canola oil to the batch.
Curry Paste:
1 cup firmly packed Thai basil leaves
2 medium shallots, chopped
¼ cup firmly packed cilantro leaves
2 tbsp fresh mint leaves
1 tbsp Thai green Chile paste
1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
1 tbsp agave nectar
2 cloves garlic, peeled.

Here's what the week is looking like:
Sunday: Vegetarian Meatballs and Sauce with pasta

Monday: Thai Basil Eggplant with brown rice

Tuesday: Black bean tacos with the fixins (tomato, cilantro, onion, cheese) with homemade guacomole

Wednesday: Split pea soup - I cooked this on the weekend using leftover ham (I had baked a few weeks back), so tonight I just heat and serve. And, I don't mind the ham chunks because it really gives the soup the flavor (even though you can leave out).

Thursday: Leftovers

Friday: Homemade pizza
