menu planning monday 06.22.09


Since the children have been out of school and baseball season started, I have had the hardest time keeping up with my menu planning. I usually try to have it done by Sunday, but that just did not happen this week. But, baseball season is over and I can get that little part of my life back (at least, until football starts next month!). So, here goes!

Monday: Grilled portobellos and pineapples, with whole-grain pilaf and a tossed salad [guitar lessons now moved to Mondays, still at 6pm]

Tuesday: Sauteed Shrimp with jasmine rice and steamed broccoli sprinkled with parmesan

Wednesday: No more Wednesday night suppers at church for the rest of the summer, so this week we are having pizzas using Naan bread as the base. This is a delicious flatbread that you can purchase or make from scratch (you can find the recipe Chef D uses here).

Thursday: Spaghetti, salad, and garlic bread (prepared by Lauren, who is back home from college)

Friday: Scrapbooking Crop night - Lauren and I will bring brownies and fresh fruit. The guys will have their Boys Night Out:)

Saturday: This is our 22nd wedding anniversary so Chef D has decided to take me out to eat at this new restaurant in our area: SpringHouse on Lake Martin.
