Meal Plan Monday 09/14

What's on the menu this week? If you don't have the whole week planned out, any ideas? Since many of us might be feeling nauseous or have normal food aversions, you could just share what's working for you and/or getting you through the week.

  • Today we are having potato corn chowder and I’m baking some fresh bread (Onion Bay  loaf from King Arthur Flour). 

    That’s all the further I’ve gotten but this onion bread makes amazing grilled cheese so I suspect that will be my lunch the next few days 😀

    This thread is solidifying the fact that I don't want to cook a thing, lol
    Same. Last first tri I had I ended up with a HelloFresh subscription.
  • @SkilledSailor but you still have to cook! At least you don't have to plan tho.  Hmmm.

  • @texas_t @SkilledSailor you could do a meal delivery service. I did one a couple months into covid when i was like eff all this cooking but cancelled it after a few weeks cause the frozen TV dinner-type packaging was depressing me. Food was good tho: https://www.factor75.com/r/home. There's are a couple other ones that Ive seen friends try called Balanced Bites and Cook Unity that also look promising.
  • Monday - Birria, riced cauliflower Mexican style
    Tuesday - Taco Tuesday! Street style chicken on soft corn tortillas
    Wednesday - Grilled pork shoulder steaks, garden veggies, black beans
    Thursday - Spaghetti and meatballs, salad
    Friday - (probably takeout pho 😉)
    Weekend - Pozole! And regular food too!

  • @morgantu @texas_t Buffalo cauliflower was the recipe that made me throw in the towel last week lol! The recipe I had called for two dips in batter, one before baking and again halfway through baking and I said "aw h3ll naw." My husband loves it tho so hopefully I get motivated again someday.
  • We did fajitas last night, planning on breakfast for dinner, shrimp ( haven'd decided if we are doing bacon wrapped or fried), garlic chicken, pork tenderloin.

  • Man, you guys are inspiring. This is where I’m at right now:

    Monday: take out pizza 
    Tuesday: Lipton soup from a pouch 
    Wednesday: who knows, instapot pasta?
    Thursday: something plant based
    Friday: TBD 
  • I see that pregnancy brain has me good, because I put Rosh Hashanah on the wrong days even though I know!
  • @Marz1pan did you edit it? Because that looks right to me, it starts Friday night, and goes through to Sunday sundown.
  • @texas_t sooo I tried to copy a restaurant version so this is not great as far as recipe because I made it up. But here goes. For the cauliflower: 
    Mix hot sauce, milk, garlic salt, about 2 tbs melted butter, and flour into a batter. I would say mine is the consistency of a thick sauce. 
    Coat cauliflower florets (I always do a whole head) and spread onto a greased baking sheet. 
    Bake at 415 for 25ish mins, take out and brush with melted butter then bake for 5 more min. 

    For tacos I do the cauliflower, pickled beets and carrots, shredded lettuce, and bleu cheese dressing. 
    I hope you are an adventurous cook because that is going to take some experimenting 😂❤️
  • @morgantu I was thinking maybe coating them thinly with the flour first and then baking until crispy and brown. Then, tossing it in a wing sauce butter mixture. That's how they do wings, hmmmmmm.

  • @mrosek91 no i didn't edit, I have just become an idiot who had it right, looked at a calendar during an online event with our Temple tonight and thought I had it wrong, felt so stupid and then realized I was actually right! I can blame pregnancy right? It's that or COVID lock in year is depleting my brain cells. 
  • @Marz1pan I've been blaming pregnancy/mom brain for 4 and a half years. Also, you can blame the fact that there is no shofar blowing the first day because it falls on Shabbos.
  • Raise your hand if you didn't cook what you had planned last night and ordered Chinese food to eat with @mrosek91 in spirit 🙋🏽. All I wanted was egg rolls and it made me soooooo happy.
  • @ec1212 I didn't but it sure crossed my mind! 😂

    Just made this delicious tofu spread. I ate it on toasted bread.

  • I made stuffed poblanos last night, and fed the kids spaghetti. The poblanos were soooooo yummy! Especially since everything sounds gross to me right now.

  • @yellingbanana Sounds delicious! What did you stuff them with? I have received a bunch in the last couple of weeks and don't know what to do with them.
  • @mimser I stuffed them with ground beef and veggies- zucchini, onion, tomatoes... topped with enchilada sauce and lots of cheese, baked in the oven!
