mon- roasted a chicken to use in parts for the next 2 weeks (obviously some of it will go in the freezer and be taken out accordingly) and knocked out 2 loaves of banana bread for breakfasts and snacks.
tues- roasted chicken breast w pan gravy and roasted winter veggies
wednesday- eggplant, crimini mushrooms, red/yellow bell peppers, diced tomatoes over penne
thursday- chicken tacos, red beans and rice
friday- shrimp, grapefruit and avocado salsa (need to figure out how to do this one), orzo, and some veggie
saturday- off
sunday- london broil, roasted potatoes and onions, green beans
dh is giving up carbs for lent. to him this means pastas, breads, and rice..... ugh. last year he decided lent was a great time to go vegetarian. i love the man but dear goodness his lenten resolutions are taxing on my menu.
I actually planned my menu for the week and wrote it out on my whiteboard in my kitchen. It makes me more likely to stick to it!
Monday - Hot dogs and roasted potatoes. Don't judge. It was a quick dinner after we got our taxes done.
Tuesday - A giant caesar salad. I've been craving one for a while.
Wednesday - Roasted garden herb pork loin, mashed potatoes and a salad
Thursday - Chicken and cous cous with salad (can you tell where I get my veggies in?)
Friday - Not sure because I have a 30th birthday party (sans DH) but I want to eat dinner before I go so I don't over indulge.
Saturday - I think I want to make a pizza or a calzone or stromboli or something
Sunday -EDIT: that would be KelDel's Tuesday dinner makes me want to make some of Giada's vodka sauce so maybe that with farfalle.
Not a very productive cooking week in my house. Lots going on.
Mon - took a group of students to dinner. ribs, baby!
Tues - pork tenderloin, sweet tater fries and a veg if i can find one in the freezer that appeals to me
Weds - probably a shrimp pesto sun-dried tomato penne
Thurs - out to dinner with friends
Sun- Roast chicken with rice and veggies
Mon- Roast beef sandwiches
Tues- DH has an appointment tonight, so we'll see when he gets home
Wed- Piergoies with a veggie
Thurs- Chili
Fri- Either Pizza or Macaroni in Marinara
Hard to believe it is Lent already which = meatless Fridays
Where do you order from? We are still on the hunt for a good local place since our go to on Broad Street closed last year.

Leftovers!
Sunday I made chili and cornbread
Monday was tuna steaks
Tonight I think I'll get leftover roast beef from my inlaws.
Otherwise we will have kielbasa.
Wednesday we will have some sort of fish. There is a "seafood spectacular" at Acme, lol, so we will load up for lent.
Thursday will probably be chicken and pasta alfredo.
Friday we are going to a political fundraiser, so we will probably just eat cheese and apps.
Saturday I'll probably roast or stew a chicken.
Will have to try them both. Thanks!
Mon - turkey burgers and salad
Tues - baked chicken, salad and maybe couscous
Wed-Fri - ? I'm not doing well with planning.
