Here's hoping this week is a little less nuts than the last one!

Menu Monday

My posting was seriously lacking last week, I know....epic fail. I'm going to try to do better this week if for no other reason than I have a bunch of post-ready pictures of the yummy recipes I made last week!

This week I'm planning some old standbys with a new recipe or two thrown in for good measure:

Monday: Leftover pot roast with horseradish mashed potatoes from Sunday's dinner (a winter dish in honor of the dusting of snow we had Sunday morning)
 
Tuesday: Tomato avocado salad with cumin-lime dressing


Wednesday: A new recipe for spinach manicotti

Thursday: TBD (I hope to be attending this month's book club assuming I don't get sucked into a work event)

Menu Monday

The good news is that it's Presidents Day and the federal government is closed! The bad news is I spent most of the day working from home anyway :(

Yep, it's shaping up to be that kind of week, y'all. As a result, the menu is pretty light on cooking (by me) this week:

Monday: my favorite three cheese macaroni with bacon (I need me some comfort food!)
Tuesday: leftover mac n'cheese
Wednesday: Seared salmon with a deconstructed goat cheese/pear/dried cherry salad (thanks to Jason who offered to step and help out this week--isn't he the best?!)
Thursday: Big day at work (which also happens to be taking place in Baltimore) so we'll either do our own thing for dinner or order pizza or something

Blogging may be even lighter than usual (hard to image, I know) but maybe by the weekend I'll be ready to talk about our efforts to find and buy a house without going broke in the process!

Menu Monday

Here's what we've got on tap for this week:

Monday: A Valentine's Day dinner to be prepared by Jason!
Tuesday: leftover chicken pot pie
Wednesday: Book Club night which means Jason is on his own and I'm making a honey vanilla pound cake to take for dessert
Thursday: Wild mushroom pasta (new recipe from a Cooking Light cookbook I got for Christmas)

Check back in this week to see how it all turns out!

Oh, and Happy Valentine's Day :)

Menu Monday

Work has been busy which means that I either haven't cooked much lately or I've gone for recipes that don't require much effort. This coming week is no exception-- on the menu are all things I've made (and blogged about) before. But rather than letting the cobwebs grow further on the ol' blog, I thought I'd shed some light on the recipes I've made that warrant repeat appearances.

So without further ado, I give you this week's meal plan:

Monday: Curry Squash and Carrot Soup

 
Tuesday: Chicken Patty Pitas


Wednesday: Leftovers
Thursday: Roasted Beet Salad


Friday: Dinner out (I hope)

What's on tap for you meals this week?
