We didn't do a menu post this week!
I'm sure you guys can tell by my increase in posts today that I am not very motivated at work! Additionally, I'll admit that I usually waste time on Reddit, and it being blacked out today is really causing anxiety for me! :-p
Anyway, we didn't do our weekly menu planning post, so how about we all just share what we've already made/plan to make the rest of the week? I'll start!
Sunday: Tequila lime salmon, mashed cauliflower, Caesar salad (first two recipes are in the blog!)
Monday: Oh em gee, I can't remember already....Ok, this is worrying me, I'm still sitting here trying to remember...GOT IT! We had spaghetti squash with a creamy tomato sauce with ground turkey and spinach :-)
Tuesday: Roasted chicken, coconut-braised cabbage
Wednesday: Testing out those buffalo chicken meatballs tonight! Plus green beans and maybe salad.
Thursday: Coconut chicken soup with the leftover chicken
Friday: I have a chuck roast to use and some extra time, so probably a pot roast.
Saturday: We're going out! Has anyone been to St. Arnolds on Jefferson in DC? I'm excited for mussels and Belgian beer!
Re: We didn't do a menu post this week!
Sunday - no real meal; we had a football party and basically ate off and on all day.
Monday - DD and I had leftover spaghetti from last week, DH wasn't hungry
Tuesday - n/a - I got home really late - DD has cereal, DH and I had leftovers.
Wednesday - mini-meatloafs (taht I made Monday) and leftover mac and cheese from the party
Thursday - should be chicken enchiladas, but I should have cooked the chicken already. I'll defrost soem chicken tonight and DH can figure something out tomorow night
Friday - no idea?
Clearly, I am horrible about posting the meal planning post, so if someone wants to take over, feel free!!
