Super Bowl Sunday!

I’m working with a client now who is pretty darn close to Superwoman.  She’s a fabulous single mother, she works full time, she is in graduate school, she is a wonderful daughter and a loyal friend.  She is the very epitome of success, right?  Except for one thing.  Her pesky eating habits.  She has had the devil of a time trying to change them on her own, so she enlisted my help.  Recently, she shared with me that she’d done really well all week long, but that Friday night she had made no plans for dinner so when her phone rang with the offer of KFC, she said “bring it!”

No, this isn’t about how to make better choices at KFC.  (Although, they offer a grilled chicken and I’m pretty sure they have corn on the cob and green beans.  Don’t do biscuits---look up the ingredients....)

This is about before the KFC invasion.  This is about having NO PLANS for dinner on Friday night.  She knew she would eat dinner.  (Right?) She knew that she had a busy day and would be home in a hungry tizz.  (Right?)  She knew that she was leaving herself wide open for temptation.  (Right?)

So today, I’m posting my weekly menu.  Take from it what you will.  Some of you may just glance over it and remember only that I plan a whole week’s worth of food each Sunday of my life.  Some of you may print it and make it your own.  

Superbowl Sunday:  ribs, pigs, wings, hummus, lavash chips, Joe’s homemade salsa, guac and chips.

Monday:  Hatsie’s latest blog!  http://tworecipes.blogspot.com/2011/02/james-and-giant-potato.html

Tuesday:  (taking dad to the doctor at 3:30, so need something quick when we get home), crawfish jambalaya, rice, green salad.

Wednesday:  spaghetti, hamburger crumbles, roasted vegies (since I don’t eat meat, we’ve always made spaghetti pile-on, with all the toppings separate.)

Thursday:  salmon, asparagus risotto.

Friday:  homemade pizzas (Pillsbury pizza dough in a can---best stuff ever.)

Saturday:  bumaround for dad; early VD dinner out for us!

If anybody wants recipes, comment, tweet or facebook your requests!  I’m off to go find something green and yellow to wear to Kroger!  Go Packers!
