Monday: tacos!! Also browning an extra lb of ground beef to make soup for tomorrow's dinner.

Tuesday: stuffed pepper soup

Wednesday: taco salad

Thursday: leftover stuffed pepper soup

Friday: pizza Fridays here, haven't decided on this week's toppings yet.

Re: This week's meal plans????

  • Ugh, I have NO idea!!  We have got to get better at meal planning.  We have been slacking big time lately.
  • Tonight: spaghetti squash + meatballs; salad

    Tomorrow: stuffed peppers (planning to use quinoa, mushrooms, and ground turkey for the filling)

    Wednesday: pork tenderloin, if it's thawed by then, probably making this Maple Pork recipe.

    Thursday: probably salmon, but that requires a trip to the fish market

    Still figuring out the rest of the week. I have ground bison, so might make American Chop Suey or Lasagna.

  • Our "good" meals were all used up. We're having a busy week, so our weeknight meals are leftovers or unoriginals like pasta, sausage, and red sauce or pizza.

    DH made a great pineapple salsa that we had in fish tacos (halibut lightly battered in krusteaz pancake mix) but he never writes down what he does so I don't have a recipe! I know it had pineapple, a plum tomato, orange pepper, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Stuffed it in a flour tortilla and served with rice (long grain rice made in a rice maker with lime juice, pineapple juice, and a little cilantro.)

  • Amy, that sounds yummy! The pineapple salsa sounds like this recipe, with the addition of the tomato, even if the amounts may have been tweaked by your DH -- http://www.twopeasandtheirpod.com/pineapple-salsa/

    Looks spot on! Although we made the mistake of using canned pineapple slices that he cut up. Next time definitely going to buy fresh (even if it is the pre-cut kind so we don't have to mess with a whole pineapple).
