Indian Lamb Chops with Curried Cauliflower

I start the year with the best of intentions, and then reality sets in: this week has been so busy at work that I'm ready for bed at 9:30. Combine long work days with a lot of time spent on the road and lots of projects going at once, making dinner when I get home really isn't high on the list of things I want to do. The list really only consists of a single entry: lie on couch in pajamas and stare at something - a book if it's put in front of my face, but more likely the TV. 

I also failed in actually preparing food for the week as I'd hoped. P's brother S left on Saturday, and Sunday was a snowy, nasty day, so grocery shopping had to wait until Monday night. By then, of course, it was too late to cook anything ahead - the week had already begun. 

One success, however: I had planned meals for the week. While home, I had picked up my dad's copy of Bon Appetit because of the meatballs on the front. All of the ground beef we get means I need more creative ways to use it, and the meatball recipes looked promising. In the same issue were several other recipes that looked good, too. So last night, despite wanting to fall over and just take a nap on the floor, I threw together this meal: Indian Lamb Chops with Curried Cauliflower. 

The recipe was true to its word - 25 minutes, start to finish, easy, and delicious. I would use the curry sauce with other things, like shrimp, or if using meat I would throw in some cooked potatoes to bulk up the meal a bit. A definite repeat dish, especially since I now have a whole jar of mango chutney in the refrigerator...
