Menus

lol, I am still not sure that anyone reads these anymore, but here's what we're eating this week (groceries came to just under $100):

Monday: Parmesan & Sage Crusted Pork Chops w/ mashed potatos and roasted veg;

Tuesday: Roasted chicken breast with Winter Salad (wow, let me just say that getting the seeds from a pomegranate is much more complicated than I thought it was - thank goodness for Google!);

Wednesday: Pakistani-style Beef Stew with flat bread;

Thursday: Leftovers;

Friday: Dallas's work Christmas party. 

Re: Menus

  • I read them!!! I don't think I'm making a menu this week though since I'm on 2nd shift. DH and I will just be scavengers whenever we're hungry :P
  • I read them, Mel.  I just don't have much to contribute.  We've been working our way through a stash of freezer meals.  When I do cook, it's been pretty basic and not well thought out, so my weekly menues aren't worth posting. 

    I'm done work this week, so maybe I'll get back into gear and participate next week.  

  • Please keep posting your menus! I read them and have on occasion stolen a recipe. I would participate but I've never managed to make a weekly meal plan. Maybe that will be one of my New Year's resolutions -- to help me with my main resolution, which is (of course) to lose some weight.

  • You can't stop posting!!!!!  I am doing a collection from your menu's so that when I am off starting next week I can make a feeble attempt to be half the planner / cook that you are.

    Every Monday when I come home with your menu my DH asks if you want to adopt him!

  • Ok, ok...I guess these do get read (and, on occasion used). I will absolutely keep posting, ladies! I can't believe that, come January, I will have been doing these menus for TWO years!
  • I always try to get to the menus on mondays as I love the menu posts. Don't stop!

    A lot of our meals I've been trying to make baby friendly (smaller, tender bits) so that DD can join in on our foodie fun

    Monday: Veal risotto w/zucchini, tomato and spinach

    Tuesday: Baked stuffed chicken (broccoli, cheese), mashed potatoes, extra broccoli

    Wednesday: leftovers

    Thursday: Penne in homemade tomato sauce with country garlic sausage (DD gets pastina instead of penne), salad (and DD will have spinach in her pasta)

    Friday: Turkey pot pies

  • Nat - do you make your own pot pies? Do you have a recipe you can share?

    Psssh ya right. I wish.

    No, I get the most excellent ones from the Farmers' Market. There's a turkey farmer that sells all kinds of cuts of turkey (seasoned or not) and also makes his own meatloaf and pot pies. And they are the best pot pies I have ever. tasted.
