Menu - 8/9

Hello everyone!

Just passing on another two week menu - this will be starting on Friday!  Remember - we always have a side salad with each meal.  Dessert is usually fresh fruit!  It has been crazy here the last week or so - getting ready for school - so I didn't get a lot of time to do a lot of new recipe research - but I did toss together our menu and I am sharing it with you!!!  I am going to try to link each recipe that I have online right in the description!!

Friday:  We are having a cookout this day with the neighbors - so we are bringing Hot Dogs on the grill and a wonderful Mac n Cheese that goes over well for cookouts. 

Saturday:  Crockpot Tortellini

Sunday:  Red Chicken Chili with rice and blackbeans.  With this recipe I always use the cilantro - never the green onions.

Monday:  Sun dried Tomato Fettuccine with spinach.

Tuesday:  Cheese burgers, corn on the cob, FF (I work this day!)

Wednesday:  Pollo Loco (this is so darn good!  I get the queso from Sam's club!)

Thursday:  Evelyn's 11th birthday!  We go out to eat on birthdays so I won't be cooking this day - but I will be making a yummy cake!  Chocolate cake - I used boxed but instead of water I use coffee when I make it.  Makes it have a better flavor!

Friday:  Haluski (traditional polish meal - so yummy - pure comfort food but not real healthy!)

Saturday:  Grandpa's chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans. (I will post my recipe a little later for this - it is pretty much braised chicken.  My Grandma always made this and it was so yummy - she said it was my Grandpa's favorite food!)

Sunday:  Egg Salad Sandwiches, fresh fruit, Chips - I work here!

Monday:  Maryland's chicken.  This is my last day of work and there is a fried chicken place right next to where I work - the kids have been begging me to bring some home.  I may be a dietitian but we to have days where we eat out!!!

Tuesday:  Chicken fried rice

Wednesday:  Salisbury Steak, rice, asparagus

Thursday:  Pork roast, potatoes, carrots.  This is so easy if you have never done it before.  Get a roast big enough for your family.  Rinse it off and pat it dry.  In your crock pot put a bag (or two depending on the size of your family) in the bottom, cut up potatoes on top, then cover with the roast.  Take one cup of water or broth and pour over it and a can of cream of mushroom soup on top of it all.  Cook on low for 8-10 hours.

Hope you all enjoy the recipes.  Sorry there are so many out to eat days - but with birthdays and school starting things are a little buys around here!
