Menu Monday
What's on your plate this holiday (for those of us in the US) week?

Re: Menu Monday
Tuesday: Wine night is Tuesday this week, so out.
52 Books in 2014??
My sweet babies:
Monday- Pork Tenderloin, Kale Salad, baked potatoes
Tuesday- Chicken.. some kind, I'm not sure yet. Suggestions? with Corn and Watermelon or salad.
Wednesday- Tri-tip... sandwiches or just alone with some kind of sides.
Thursday- ? We may be heading to our cabin for the weekend, so possibly eating out.
Friday- ?
Monday : Zucchini Noodles and meatballs
Tuesday : sauteed chicken, squash, mushrooms, and tomatoes
Wednesday : spaghetti squash casserole with zucchini bread for dessert
Thursday : roast chicken with squash fritter and mashed cauliflower
Friday : Not a clue. It depends on if my husband is working the concert/fireworks show in DC or not. If he is, I might have friends over and cookout. Or I'll go and watch the show and bring a sandwich with me, though that's really too many people for me.
“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”

Tuesday: Leftovers
Wednesday: Spinach & Ricotta Tortelloni with Fresh Basil Marinara. Caprese Salad. My basil is in danger of being destroyed by Japanese beetles, so I am using it up.
Thursday: Leftovers or grilled pork chops with grilled potato packets (thinly sliced Russet potatoes, onions, green peppers, a little butter) and veggie pasta salad
Friday: At a BBQ, so probably hot dogs, burgers, etc. I am making a Southwest pasta salad (bowtie pasta, ranch dressing, mayo, taco seasoning, with chopped tomatoes, black beans, corn, and a metric ton of cilantro from my garden).
