Last night we had beef stroganoff over brown rice, peas, salad.
Tonight DD is spending the night with my mom, so we're making chili with our fresh habenaros...

DH made fettuccine alfredo last night with sauted asparagus. Tonight we are making beef and veggie stir fry over rice. I'll probably pick up some fresh bread on the way home from work too.

uhm.. tonight is oven fried buttermilk chicken, sauteed rainbow chard with crispy prosciutto, and rainbow pasta salad (rigatoni with red tomato, orange BP, green BP, purple onion, black olives and bleu cheese, yellow lemon and white garlic in the vinegrette) - I'm actually eating it for lunch now, but it will reappear at dinner time.

Tonight was SUPPOSED to be Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Thighs. SUPPOSED to be. However, teh chicken had been in the freezer in the original packaging since May. (Deep-freeze). My mom said, "Yuck!"

So, instead, we just had bacon adn eggs. YUM!

I'm trying to remember what we made this week. Enchiladas verdes, moroccan meatballs served with rice. We are smoking a pork shoulder tomorrow and tonight we are having tri tip sandwiches and mushrooms and I'm making apple butter today.

I'm back!

Thursday night we ate at Dairy Queen. Thursdays are fast food night for us, because DD has ballet, tap, and gymnastics, and DS1 has soccer practice. NO time to make or eat anything decent.

Last night we had chicken & tortilla dumplings and lima beans with bacon. We had leftovers of the same stuff tonight.

We grilled steaks last night with potato salad and baked beans.

Tonight is going to be pizza on homemade wheat crust with pesto from my basil .. I'll probably put chicken on dh's part and keep mine just cheese and tomato.

Last night we had fried eggs & toast with strawberry preserves (and found out that the babe is allergic to strawberries, eek).

I have no idea about tonight. Maybe some kind of baked chicken? I'm really hoping my mom will invite us over for dinner so I don't have to worry about it.

I made a really great pork roast last night. It was marinating for a day first. I seared it both sides in my huge dutch oven and scattered parsnip, turnips, carrots, and sweet potatoes around. Poured a cup of broth over, roasted a couple hours at 300. Then I made a chunky sauce with a couple cups of homemade applesauce (chunky), a pinch of cinnamon, ginger, some sage, apple cider vinegar and brown sugar. Cooked it down to thick and poured that over the roast and slow cooked another 2 hours or so. It was *so* good.

And buttermilk biscuits to go with

My DD was too. I kept her away from them for about a year and she can eat a little now.

Last night we ate out because I didn't feel like cooking. Tonight we are making sausage and bowties with some fresh bread. I have to meal plan for the rest of the week today.
post #37 of 138
Did the menu plan and shopping for the week. We are on a very tight grocery budget, so it took some careful planning!

Tonight - red beans and rice - using turkey sausage and brown rice
Tuesday - Tuna melts with tomato soup
Wednesday- Stir fry with veggies, turkey sausage & wheat noodles
Thursday- Salmon patties with mashed potatos & green beans

Last night we had an omelet with tomatoes from the garden, onions from the garden, and red bell peppers from someone else's garden. We had homefries and apple slices to go with it. Marc cooked.

Tonight we're having health nut rice with peas and lemon garlic mahi-mahi.
