Re: Menu Thread 6.8.14

My menu got mixed up last week and I lost a day somewhere.

Sunday: Greek day.. Greek omelet for lunch and Greek souvlaki with homemade tzatziki sauce for dinner

Monday: whole wheat calzones

Tuesday: turkey burgers with sweet potatoes and roasted tomatoes

Wednesday: tofu stir fry with vegetables and rice

Thursday: Hawaiian chicken with rice

Friday: Pasta something

Saturday: Buffalo chicken burgers

My menu also depends on what is going bad in my fridge or on the verge of going bad.

That is gorgeous! I would love to know how it turns out. It would be a great vegetarian option for a party we have coming up.

I decide what I'm making on Friday and I run it past DH that night. We usually go food shopping on Sunday so I make sure I buy everything I need for the week. Then, depending on what time I'm going to get out of work, I'll either prep everything the night before or just do it when I get home.

I'm a neurotic planner when it comes all aspects of my life so I actually enjoy planning our meals in advance. Lol

I can't stand going to the store more than once a week so I need to plan. I check the circulars first and make a list from that. Then I come up with my menu based on what's on sale and add anything I need for those meals to the list. It takes some time but it takes a lot of stress off for the rest of the week. I can't say the plan always works out but it definitely helps.

Re: Menu Thread 6.8.14

I think part of the my problem is that I don't have enough recipes or good meal ideas. it sounds like dinner time at all your homes is fab. I make chicken and same thing all the time. I don't want to cook a meal that requires me to buy lots of extra spices and herbs..or requires lots of extra ingredients. Perhaps a few recipe exchanges it what I need??
