Today - lamb chops on grill and Israeli cous cous

Monday - skirt steak with pasta

Tuesday - Something with paneer in it.

Wednesday - thin sliced chicken breaded and sautéed till crisp with a side

Thursday - Chicken breast in crock pot on low. Shreds well. Might mix in with white rice and black eyed peas. Could cook rice in half coconut milk, or in chicken broth.

Tonight is vegetable soup, salad, rolls, fruit salad

Tomorrow meal delivery (there’s a caterer I know who drops off meals on Tuesdays, and I get a few meals from her every now and then): Swedish meatballs, egg noodles, and roasted root vegetables

The following night (also from the meal delivery): Peruvian chicken, rice, and plantains. I’ll probably add some green beans or something.

Sure,
-heat your oven to 400 and put 9 by 12 casserole or baking dish in the oven
-cut the tofu into slices, 5 or 6 for a block. Extra firm works best. Press the tofu between paper towels or a dish towel with something heavy on top
-make two mixes 1) one egg whisked with 1/2 cup of milk and 2) 1 generous cup of breading (you can use prepared panko or breadcrumbs or you can mix flour with some cornmeal and add garlic powder/salt/pepper/oregano (or really whatever spices sound good)
-dip the tofu slices in the egg mixture, then crumbs, then repeat
-take the hot pan out and toss in a few tablespoons of butter and put it back in the oven until the butter melts
-then put the tofu in the pan with the butter, bake on one side for 10 minutes, if that side looks browned and crispy, flip and bake on the other side (if it's not browned yet give it more time)

My kid has decided she likes this better than chicken.
