What are you cooking for dinner this week?
Anybody have meal ideas/menus planned already for the week? I'm planning mine and feeling uninspired.
Re: What are you cooking for dinner this week?
I am there with you.
I ask DH what he wants and he always says, lasagna or enchiladas. Really???
Sole w/ asparagus and roasted potatoes is tonight.
Dont ask about the rest of the week since I have not gotten that far. Last week I was on fire...I made Irish Beef Stew w/ Soda bread, Chili w/ cornbread, ranch burgers with cranberry salad, and blackbean soup w/ pepper salad.
I am feeling less inspired this week.
Money Matters The other half's blog.
EJ is growing up too fast!
Yeah, DH either does not give me any ideas, or says things he know I will not make or are only special occasion foods.
So far, I've got this:
Monday: Shakshuka
Tuesday: Potato leek soup, grilled cheese and steamed broccoli
Wednesday: Lemony lentil salad with grilled fish
Thursday: Spicy veggie burgers and baked sweet potato fries
Tonight is broiled balsamic chicken and southwestern quinoa salad
Tomorrow DH is grilling beef-n-mushroom kabobs
Wed is oven-"fried" pork chops, toasted quinoa (made with leftovers from tonight - ha!), and sauteed broccoli with almonds.
Thursday we're having salmon burgers and sweet potato fries
Friday is DH's work banquet
Saturday is mustard-crusted beef tenderloin with sauteed spinach and mushrooms
Sunday is oatmeal and yogurt (we try to eat light on Sunday night, for no particular reason)
Edited to correct mix-up in menu planning due to event on Friday night.
Bok choy and leek risotto tonight.
Crockpot minestrone
There's a quinoa pilaf I want to try, possibly with asparagus on the side.
We've got hot crash potatoes to make at some point.
Sunday was chicken fried steak, asparagus, and mashed sweet potatoes.
Monday was baked potato soup.
Tonight- I was going to do crockpot sloppy joes for E and for leftoevers for him for this week and I'm going to dinner with my Dad and his new GF however E is really sick and won't be going to class tonight and has no desire to eat anything and I don't think it would be fair to torture him with the crockpot going all day. So tonight nothing.
Wednesday- Leftovers
Thursday- E was suppose to cook but I think I'll just do sloppy joes then.
Friday- E has class and I'm on my own.
Ok, so I was able to muster up a menu this week:
Last night was lasagna (we did not have it in a long time) with homemade garlic bread and spinach salad
Tonight-chicken sausages and shells n cheese
Wed-vegetarian chili
Thurs-leftovers
Friday-not sure
This upcoming weekend we are making lots of food in preparation for the Niner playoff game!!! Yes, it is that exciting in our house. #49erfaithfulforlife
