It's funny, this "Menu of the Week" thing...given that I actually create a menu only once every two weeks :) One week I'm really motivated to eat well and therefore I cook well. But it's difficult to pull off with 3 kids, so I am usually burned out after one week of cooking nice meals. The next week we subsist on frozen pizza, take out, "brupper" (breakfast for supper), etc. Then after a week of that I'm sick of eating in such a way so I go back to planning a nice menu.
And the cycle continues....
Rosemary & Garlic Studded Leg of Lamb (1st lamb venture) with Rosemary Flageolets (substituting navy beans--can't find flageolets in SLC)
Cauliflower and Ham Gratin, Salad, Fruit
Vegetable Beef Soup, (I add 1 lb. of ground beef to original recipe; freezes well too), Virginia Light Rolls
Cobb Salad with Garlic Vinaigrette & a crusty loaf of bread
Black Bean Burritos with Garlic, Cumin & Cilantro; Salad with Avocado & Cilantro; Spanish Rice
Grilled Red Snapper with Lemon Fingerling Potatoes, Steamed Broccoli

ReplyDeleteyou and I are kindred eaters...tell me about the cauliflower gratin...I've looked at the recipe many times but haven't tried it yet. Now I'm motivated, as we had frozen pizza last night...
ReplyDeleteSteph may be too modest to tout the cauliflower gratin, but I was a lucky partaker of 3 helpings! It was VERY good!
