Here is the plan for this week. I bought monster jugs of Sun Dried Tomatoes and Artichokes and Feta at Costco so I have had a common theme the last few weeks. Oh how I love them though…
MONDAY: Carrot Orzo Pasta (from Southern Living at Home magazine)
TUESDAY: BLT Salad
WEDNESDAY: Greek Omelet and Roasted Red Potatoes
THURSDAY: Lemon Risotto with grilled asparagus
FRIDAY: Baked Potato and BBQ chicken
SATURDAY: Chicken and Dumplings (to finally use up the last of my free Pillsbury Biscuits!)
SUNDAY: Tomato Mozzarella and Basil Sandwiches
So that is our plan- what’s on your menu this week?

Hey Charlene,
I LOVE YOUR SITE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, have 4 of the day’s planned. Lol
Monday: Leftover grilled hamburgers and mac salad
Tuesday: Giant beans baked w/ carrots,celery and tomatoes w/ herbs and pillsbury bread sticks
Wednesday: Baked tilapa w/ parmesan bread crust and home made pica de gallo w/ homemade cheddar/asiago biscuits and sauteed spinach w/ olive oil
Thursday: Crockpot black eyed beans w/ spinach and mustard greens and herbs, paired with cheddar/asiago biscuits (left over from nite before)
Thank you so much for all you DO!!!!!!!!!!
Still working on our menu for the week…but it will involve the cheap chicken & shrimp I got at Safeway today!
Oh, and that Lemon Risotto recipe is awesome!! I’ve made it a few times… 🙂 Enjoy!
texas chili from the $5 dollar cookbook, not sure the rest of the week. 🙂 maybe….spaghetti? or something with chicken. 🙂
Grilled salmon w/ spinach salad and faux fried rice (basically steamed rice added to diced sauteed carrots and peas, stir fried with a touch of soy sauce)
Grilled eggplant and tomato paninis on homemade sourdough bread
Chicken Saté with ponzu(citrus) sauce and strawberry spinach salad
and I work the other two evenings, which means my husband will probably make macaroni and cheese or frozen pizza unless I prep something quick ahead of time.
What’s your recipe for the chicken and dumplings with the biscuts? I’m looking for ways to use them up!
Carla I don’t really have a recipe. My plan is to just head over to Pillsbury and get ideas from them 🙂
I just found this one here and I might look for more a little later this week:

I always want to plan out our weekly dinners but i never do, and if by some chance i do, i fail to stick to it. I would love some tips on when you do your planning and how you make sure to stick to it. I love your blog by the way, i just found it, my lucky day! 🙂
