Menu Plan Monday - Nov. 8, 2010

I know it's already Tuesday and I'm just now posting our week's menu plan, but better late than never, right? Besides, then I can refer back to this post instead of my ugly scratched up list when I totally forget what I'm supposed to be making. Good times.

Monday: Garden salads (lettuce, tomato, cremini mushrooms, celery, scallions & shredded cheddar cheese) topped with blackened chicken

Tuesday:
Chicken-fried steak & gravy

Wednesday: A spin on
grilled ham & cheese pull-apart sandwich loaf. If the turkey in the fridge is still good, we plan to use that instead of ham. Also, I have to see what type of cheese I have in the fridge; I think we have several, so I might mix 2 together. And since it's just the 2 of us eating, I might use buns instead of a whole loaf of bread. No need to waste food, right? Lastly, I keep seeing this butter/worcestershire mix that other foodies are brushing on top of sammys before warming in the oven. I might try to find that recipe and brush it on our sammys, too. Who knows where this dinner will eventually end up!

Thursday: I'm usually by myself because Thursdays are Buppy's overnight, but I think my sister is coming into town on Thursday (to stay for the weekend, yay!), so I think I'll try
Alfredo pizza. My sister loves Alfredo sauce, and since the pizza has lots of spinach on it, I'm not sure how Buppy will like it. If it's good, I can always make some for him another night.

Friday:
Onion beef stroganoff

Saturday: We'll be at a friend's surprise birthday party, to which we're bringing a hot pizza dip (unless I change my mind before then). My sister will be at a show she came to town to see, so no need to worry about her either. I'm sure lunch will be sandwiches and/or leftovers.

Sunday: This is my free day. By the time it rolls around, I hope to have something in mind. As of right now, I'm completely blank. I guess we'll see if my sister has any ideas for something she'd like me to make. We'll see.

Menu Plan Monday - July 5, 2010

I think I was a slacker this past week and didn't menu plan at all. Buppy's father and his wife were in town at the beginning, work has been somewhat stressful and I just didn't have the time or energy to menu plan. We survived all the same, so it's all good. But I'm back on it this week with some yummy recipes to try!

Monday lunch [because Buppy & I are both off work]: grilled brats, raw cauliflower, grapes
Monday dinner:
spaghetti & meatballs, green salad

Tuesday:
slow cooker easy beef & broccoli

Wednesday: grilled turkey Italian sausages, whatever fruits/veggies/salad we decide on

Thursday: my night home alone, so probably a tuna sandwich or leftovers

Friday:
Parmigiano & herb chicken tenders, roasted cauliflower

Saturday: we're heading to a housewarming party that starts at 1pm, so no lunch or dinner plans

Sunday lunch: jalapeno popper dogs, cheese & crackers
Sunday dinner: cheeseburger pizza, green salad
