I started planning this menu earlier today during Penelope's nap, but wasn't feeling too inspired. I think it's because I just haven't been hungry lately. Now, as I work on it, I keep falling asleep--it is almost 11pm. I usually write out my grocery list as I plan the meals, but haven't done a very good job tonight--again, because I keep falling asleep. So, I think I've got the week decently planned and the list writing will have to wait until morning. Leave a comment here on the blog to let me know if you try any of these meals and what you think of them.
Saturday--Grilled flank steak (minus the Worcestershire sauce so that it's GF), spinach something (I've pinned several ideas and can't decide! Did you know you can follow me and my various boards over on Pinterest?), roasted fingerling potatoes and garlic
Sunday--Spaghetti Bread--will make 2 of these--one GF&DF and the other following the recipe, green salad
Monday--Southwestern Stuffed Spaghetti Squash we had this a couple weeks ago and we all enjoyed it :)
Tuesday--crock pot stew, homemade bread
Wednesday--Spicy Thai Noodles with chicken
Thursday--Calzones--spinach, cheese, sausage, mushrooms Dip in marinara sauce
Friday--Chicken Marsala Pasta
Yum! We will be trying the spaghetti bread and the spicy thai noodles this week. I also want to make the pancake muffins you posted earlier. I need to make some granola and some pumpkin muffins I have been wanting to try though, too. So much cooking...so little time. :)
ReplyDeleteSteve and I started Body for Life a few weeks ago. I love checking out your weekly menu for ideas. Thanks for being so healthy!
ReplyDeleteNina, so glad you guys liked the spicy Thai noodles. I'm looking forward to them! I made the spaghetti bread last night with my bread and ground beef in the sauce. I made a TON of spaghetti and meat sauce (froze half). Make sure your sauce isn't too wet or plan on adding extra noodles to help soak it up. Jaime and I thought butter on the outside of the bread would be better than the egg white (I used olive oil, but will do butter next time.) This meal is definitely a keeper. The GF & DF version was loved too! :)
ReplyDeletePatricia, what's Body for Life? Glad you like the ideas :)
