***weekly menu 5/26*** Memorial Day Weekend*

Sat: BBQ Burgers & Dogs, cole slaw & corn on the cob

Sun: BBQ ST turkey-burgers-with-zucchini, Beef Satays, and whole wheat orzo, tomato, cucumber & feta salad with a red wine vinaigrette.

Mon: BBQ Marinated chicken thighs, ST cauliflower-fritters, Watermelon, Feta, Mint Salad, AND ST red-white-and-blueberry-trifle for dessert

Tues: Chorizo & Cheese Empanadas (most recipes call for potato, I'm thinking of adding butternut squash instead...thoughts?) and ST black-bean-avocado-cucumber-and-tomato salad

Wed: T-ball hot dogs for the boys, Chicken apple Sausage for mommy, Beans & chips

Thurs: leftovers

Fri: Pizza/take out

eta: so my Waldbaums was out of whole wheat orzo and I decided to grab Near East garlic, olive oil pearl couscous and added diced cucumber, tomato & ff feta! It was out of this world. So so good. Didn't need any added dressing or anything at all.

Also, I made the chorizo empanadas tonight. I tossed butternut squash with evoo, sea salt, chili powder, & cumin and roasted in the oven. Browned the chorizo with some vidalia onion and added to the roasted squash and then added mexican blend shredded cheese to the mix. I stuffed the orange discos and OMG.....delish!!! just thought I'd share.
