It’s Sunday around here, and that means menu planning and grocery store duty. For meals this week, here is the lineup...
Sunday: Haley’s Special: brown hamburger (or ground turkey) in an oven proof skillet with onion and garlic. Drain. Stir in a package of taco or chili mix and water and cook for 10 minutes. Add some drained pintos if you like beans. Take off the stove and add a layer of low fat shredded cheddar cheese, then top with a package of cornbread mix. (I use Jiffy’s.) Plop some jalapenos on the top if you like hot. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes. This is a bean and cornbread night for me. Yummmm.
Monday: Cajun pasta with crawfish, found here http://tworecipes.blogspot.com/2011/03/spicy-cajun-pasta.html With a green salad. Sounds divine, and rich, no? I am not going to trick this recipe up one bit the first time I try it.
Tuesday: Steaks and baked potatoes. This is a baked potato with low fat cottage cheese night for me. Have you tried that? Oh my.... I think some roasted cauliflower would go nicely.
Wednesday, aka American Idol night #1: Vegetable frittata with leftover chopped up potato from Tuesday and bacon for the carnivores. You know how to do a frittata, right? If not, read here: http://tworecipes.blogspot.com/2011/03/leftovers-frittata.html
Thursday, aka AI Results night: Crock Pot (CP) chicken stroganoff found here http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Slow-Cooker-Chicken-Stroganoff/Detail.aspx served over rice with a spinach salad made with mandarin oranges and red onion.
Friday: Fiery fish tacos and corn salsa found here http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Fiery-Fish-Tacos-with-Crunchy-Corn-Salsa/Detail.aspx and some crunchy cowboy slaw.
Saturday: out on the town with my cute date!
What’s on YOUR PLATE this week?
