In an effort to facilitate weekly menu planning (and encourage more home-cooked, healthy meals), I thought it would be a good idea to share our weekly meal plans. Please provide links to any recipes if you have any. I hope we can update this thread every week. Thanks in advance.
Monday: Pan-seared snapped with glazed turnips and sauteed spinach (trying to use my CSA veggies) Tuesday: Leftovers from Sunday (pesto pasta with white beans, sauteed zuchinni, peas, and red onions) Wednesday: Chicken fajitas Thursday: Leftovers from Wed Friday: frozen pizza and salad or frozen veggies Saturday: black bean and brown rice burritos Sunday: Veggie Lasagna |

| Sadly I am not in a good planning groove, but wanted to mention that the Six O Clock Scramble service (or even just the cookbook) is great for weekly seasonal menu planning. |

| I love this idea! I am so bored with what I am cooking. Don't have next week's plan yet, but excited to be inspired. |

Another week! Here is our menu this week:
Monday: we didn't get to the grocery yesterday as we usually do. So tonight will either be Chipotle or homemade black bean burritos (brown rice, seasoned black beans, salsa, cheese) with frozen vegetables on the side. Tuesday: Dinner out (date night) for the adults. Pasta and veggies for the kid. Wednesday: 4th of July BBQ. I'm making corn salsa, guacamole, brownies. Thursday: Pasta w/ spinach and white beans (adapting this recipe-using whole wheat pasta instead of gnocchi due to dietary restrictions - http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/skillet_gnocchi_with_chard_white_beans.html Friday - grilled chicken and vegetables Saturday - grilled chicken salad or grilled veggie pizza (might try this dough recipe: http://taste-for-adventure.tablespoon.com/2011/05/09/whole-wheat-pizza-crust/) using leftovers from Friday Sunday: grilled fish and veggies |
