I need some inspiration this week. What's on your menu this week?
Re: Weekly Menus
I haven't made it through the whole week yet, but so far we are going to have:
lasagna, garlic bread, salad
grilled salmon (I haven't tried this recipe before), rice pilaf?
something chicken. yeah.
This week is a bit screwy because I'm going to my sister's for dinner tonight (DH and DD will probably go through a drive-thru) and Friday I have a meeting all afternoon in Vienna and then am stopping in Glen Burnie for the evening to hang out with family who'll be up from SC. I'll also be down there Saturday and Sunday, I believe.
So really we're only home for dinner three nights. Which should be easy but I have nothing planned. I'm thinking hot dogs on the grill one night, homemade pizza one night, and some sort of breakfast-for-dinner one night because I have more eggs in my 'fridge than I know what to do with. We have veggies from our CSA and Farmer's Market to use up, a fully stocked fridge and a fully stocked pantry, so I at least don't need much from the grocery store.
I'm no help. Sorry!
I've only got 2 days - but
tonight - shrimp salad. DH bought jumbo shrimp to grill on Friday, but they were not good. I'm think we can redeem them by making shrimp salad, but we'll see
tomorrow - chicken cordon bleu
Wednesday - Chik Fila night
We have some frozen pork chops so we'll do soemthing with those and then IDK?
Tonight- leftovers (flounder sloppy joes, grilled salmon/veggies)
Tues- black bean huevos rancheros
Wed- spaghetti
Thurs/Fri- cheese enchiladas one night, homemade pizza the other
I hear you on the eggs. I was hoping to give some away, but no one wants my eggs.
Last night we had burgers on the grill w/ grilled squash.
Tonight: BBQ chicken on the grill w/ kale chips.
Tuesday: Some sort of breakfast eggs/bacon sandwiches.
Wednesday: Don't know.
Thursday: Maybe grilled cheese sandwich w/ a veggie.
Friday: We will be on vacation so I'm sure we will grab something out.
We have a super busy week so I had to make sure I planned and planned "quicker" meals.
Steaks on the grill (we eat rare so literally a few minutes cooktime) with corn on the cob and maybe a baked potato
Fishsticks and a side
Lasagna/Spaghetti (maybe end up having both)
Burgers
Chix topped with stuffing
Chix cordon blue (premade)
Chili
Those were on my list
We ate the chix cordon friday, chili saturday, unexpected crabs from the neighbors last night (we were going to have the steak).
Here's what's left of our 2 week plan (we didn't end up needing some meals last week):
falafel stuffed pitas
curried kidney bean burritos
cowboy spaghetti
chicken & mushroom quesadillas
meatloaf burgers, mashed potatoes & grilled zucchini
Italian tuna melts
popcorn shrimp tacos
5 cats. 1 baby.
Tonight: chicken parm
Tomorrow: margherita pizza on the grill
Wednesday: salsa chicken
Thursday: undecided, maybe just leftover salsa chicken shredded on nachos
Friday: not clear
Saturday: we have a wedding
