    i have no idea - it is our first wedding anniversary, and DH is taking me on a surprise trip to the mountains. i do know we are going horseback riding up there, and i am so excited.
  • I just planned for tonight but doing it for the week is a good idea. I'll come back and edit in the completed week's menu

    Tues. - late supper - meatloaf from my stash, salad, apple and yogurt

    Thurs. - pork chop and peppers from the stash, brown rice, green beans, pear
    Fri. - Company - Beer can chicken, some sort of veggies and potatoes for them
    Sat. - Company - roast pork loin, oven veggies, tomatoes

    Yes, I'm not cooking this week it seems. So nice to have meals ready to go in the freezer!
  • I kind of go day by day.

    Monday:
    Marinated grilled chicken, smothered green beans/w turkey bacon, onions, creole seasoning and salad.
    I also found a recipe for peanut butter and jelly cookies in the quick fix cookbook that I might try.
  • Monday:
    WW Sausage Tortellini w/store-bought pesto
    Hearts of romaine salad w/feta cheese and homemade hot sauce vinaigrette.

    Cajun blackened salmon
    Red beans and brown rice

    Salad

    Thursday:
    Subway salad

    Friday - Sunday:
    No idea as I'm making a surprise visit to see my Dad & Mom - hope they have extras at dinner those nights!
  • I am not technically doing SBD at the moment but I love to share and I love you all so here I am!

    Tonight we're having
    Country Ribs with Barbecue Sauce (I made my own BBQ sauce with tomato juice, peach nectar, and spices. I slow roasted it last night and my DH threatened to hop in the oven and eat it right then).
    Yellow Squash
    Maybe some brown rice

    Tomorrow night:
    Easy Baked Salmon
    Whatever kind of peas came from the farm this week
  • Tuesday:
    "leftover" chicken and turkey salad...using leftover grilled turkey and grilled chicken, celery/mayo/seasoning on a bed of mixed greens and tomatoes.
  • I'm doing this week day by day as I haven't had time to make up a menu for the whole week. Tonight's supper is going to be either Chicken Divan or the Chicken Spinach Casserole.
  • My week is insane with meetings or class every night so the meal plan for each night is whatever is grabbed out of the leftovers in the freeze when I get home. Will also throw in some raw veggies with each frozen dish. My meeting is really short tonight so I think I may make some chicken & rice soup to help out for lunches or dinners for the rest of the week.

    Jessie - Would you mind sharing your BBQ sauce recipe with me? It sounds wonderful and I never know what spices to put into something like that.
  • My weeks always go better when I've planned ahead. I've got a late start this week, but here's the rest of the week.

    Tuesday: Turkey Kielbasa with Sauteed summer squash and salad.
    Wednesday: Beef Stew

  • Wed/Thursday:

    I ended up making Lasagna yesterday and have leftovers for today. It was simply yummy and I had to restrain myself for going for seconds although skinny husband filled up his plate a second time. I sliced eggplant very thin and roasted it on a baking sheet with evoo and salt/pepper, then used that instead of noodles when layering meat, sauce and cheeses. We both liked the eggplant so much more than noodles!! It was so good!

    I didn't have a lot of time, so used some "jar" sauce. I looked through all of the ones at the store and ended up using Emeril's garlic sauce which only had 1 sugar.
  • Just changed tonight's menu to baby bok choy with sesame and soy and shrimp.
