Autumn Week #2

From fried rice to shrimp cakes, a week full of cozy variety

Autumn Week #2 balances quick comfort, hearty classics, and seasonal variety. The lineup features a savory ham fried rice, a playful bacon cheeseburger chopped salad, and a full poultry dinner with crispy chicken cutlets, loaded mashed potatoes, and sautéed green beans. A hearty steak-and-potato foil packet pairs with fresh salad and homemade dressings, while shrimp cakes with seasoned rice and a ginger-garlic cucumber salad bring a lighter, flavorful finish. Extras like double chocolate cookies, fried corn and cheese fritters, and peanut butter M&M blondies are sprinkled throughout, adding fun and sweetness without overwhelming the flow. Altogether, this rotation captures early autumn with cozy flavors, balanced textures, and a mix of simple and indulgent moments.
