Re: Weekly Menus
We got some grass-fed meat at the farmers market this weekend, so tonight is skirt steak with chimichurri sauce and grilled corn.
The rest of the week: grilled pork chops with Spanish rice and asparagus (all made on the grill). Grill pizza with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil. Buffalo shrimp one night with homemade blue cheese yogurt sauce and our nightly salad, we make a different one every night.
Monday: Homemade veggie pizza & salad (FI's pool night so I'm on my own)
Tuesday: Homemade tomato bisque, grilled cheese sandwiches & salad
Wednesday: Hot dogs on the grill, homemade pasta salad & spinach salad
Thursday: Steaks on the grill, sauteed brussels sprouts, sweet potato casserole, biscuits & fudge pie with fruit & whipped cream (FI's Bday dinner)
Friday: We'll be starting our move to the new apartment, so I will probably pick up Panera or something similar.
Grilled chicken served with a potato and summer squash torte
Pizza with ricotta, balsamic roasted veggies, and more cheese, drizzled with balsamic syrup
Spaghetti with mini turkey meatballs
Pad Thai
It's short this week because we're leaving to visit the ILs in GA friday morning.
Monday: Pierogies, salad, veggie
Tuesday: Lasagna, salad, garlic bread
Wednesday: Grilled chicken roll ups, corn on the cob, rice side
Thursday: Grilled pork chops, green bean casserole, salad
Friday: Marinated grilled chicken, veggie, starchy side
tonight - some sort of pasta with shrimp
other meals:
grilled pizza, grilled veggie + goat cheese wraps, something with ground turkey (turkeyburgers?) and we will eat out at least one night.
Tonight we will be grilling chicken and veggies, but not sure for the rest of the week. I will be traveling for work, so it will be struggling to eat healthy at restaurants, and hoping the DH is not hitting McDonalds too much!
Tonight: Dinner at our favorite Mexican restaurant then on to a baseball game.
Tomorrow: 3rd Anniversary Dinner out!
Wednesday: Hot Dogs and Mac & Cheese
Thursday: Hawaiian Bread Sandwiches (ham, turkey, salami and cheese on Hawaiian Bread Buns heated in the over until safe temp) Easy and absolutely delish!
Friday: Hamburgers on the grill!
PPs menus look a lot more complex and appealing than mine. I should start venturing out of my comfort-zone and try new things! Thanks for the ideas!
It takes about 15 minutes to cook. I first found this recipe, but we have since made our own since I'd never put ketchup in my rice!

Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and frozen peas. Then open-faced meat loaf sandwiches. We still have meatloaf, and it's so yummy!

ravioli with DH's yummy tomato sauce (ravioli from the frozen foods section)
yellow rice, black beans, peas, shredded mojo pork

Nothing fancy (or very healthy) at our house!
