Menu Plan Monday :: November 16th - 22nd 2009

Posted by Sara in recipesmenu planningfoodcooking

menu plan monday

Looks like I'll be doing a whole lot of baking this week. Much more than is the norm for me. Unfortunately, it's supposed to be in the 70's all week, instead of the crisp weather we should be having this time of year. Especially since the oven will be pumping out the heat and there is clam chowder on the menu!

The last menu plan I put together was just... so so. The only thing worth mentioning again was the Ultimate Grilled Cheese Sandwiches. They were truly incredible and loved by all. Best grilled cheese I've ever made, by far. I'm still on the lookout for the perfect pizza dough recipe, though. The one we tried from the last menu plan just didn't cut it. :(

I reference everything on the menu with a link to the recipe, unless it's something that doesn't require one. If the link directs you to another website, it means that I have not tried the recipe, and therefore have no idea whether it is good or not. :) If the link leads to a posted recipe here on my blog, it means that it is a tried & true family recipe that we love. I will also revisit some of the recipes I link to and leave comments about how they turned out for us the following week.

Monday
Pasta with Pink Vodka Sauce
Grammy's Simple Salad

French Bread Rolls

Apricot-Pistachio Chicken Salad Sandwiches

Meal Plan Monday :: October 26th - November 1st 2009

Well, this week includes Halloween! My parents will be coming in town for the weekend and will get to spend it with our kids for the first time. We'll be keeping it simple that night making some fancy grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup - a classic. Something to fill their tummies before all of that candy. Gavin said that he wants to trick-or-treat at one hundred houses! We'll see how he feels after we get through the 20 on our street. Hopefully, that will be enough. :) We are so busy this week - traveling to the local aquarium and battleship for their Halloween bashes after school. The kids are super excited and it is so much fun to watch them!

Oh my, we loved everything from the October 19th - 25th 2009 menu plan. If you missed it, do check it out. Everything was awesome - we will be making it all again. That doesn't happen every week!

Menu Plan Monday :: October 19th - 25th 2009

Lots of new recipes I've been wanting to try on the menu this week. I went through my huge pile of recipe clippings and threw out a lot of stuff that didn't look good anymore. I also threw out the recipes I was able to find online and add to my virtual recipe box. So, I do feel a lot more organized. The pile is smaller... but it still looks like something I'll never be able to make through in my lifetime. Next look through will definitely have to include some sort of prioritization method.

There wasn't anything tremendously noteworthy from the September 14th - 20th 2009 menu except the Salsa Rice - which was super easy and really good. It's my new go-to recipe when I need a Mexican side dish. I'm not really a fan of instant rice, but being able to throw this together as quickly as I did can't be beat. Two other things that I would make again are the Slow Cooker London Broil and the Black-Eyed Peas and Tortillas. We enjoyed both.

I reference everything on the menu with a link to the recipe, unless it's something that doesn't require one. If the link directs you to another website, it usually means that I have not tried the recipe, and therefore have no idea whether it is good or not. :) If the link leads to a posted recipe here on my blog, it means that it is a tried & true family recipe that we love. I will also revisit some of the recipes I link to and leave comments about how they turned out for us the following week.
