Well, here it is, the start of a new week and time to make my weekly menu. You’ll notice a couple of repeats because I didn’t end up making those meals last week. The best laid plans…and all that.

A Turkey Dinner sounds delicious! Enjoy your week and thanks for stopping by!

I do hope this week goes as planned so I will have time to do that. Love turkey! And thank YOU for the visit. 🙂
Justin loves potato leek soup! Can’t wait for that recipe. Thanks for linking to my cheese biscuits.
I hope it turns out well. You can be sure it will include Creole seasoning so Justin will be pleased. 🙂 I’ve been wanting to try your cheese biscuits for ages. I made your baking mix last week and there’s enough left to make these.
My menu is up on my blog. I saw this recipe this afternoon. I thought it sounded delicious and then I thought, I’ll bet Dee would like this recipe…

Sadly, I’m deathly allergic to mushrooms which is a real shame since David loves them. I read your blog yesterday and I’m intrigued by the poppy seed chicken casserole. Have you shared the recipe?
I’ve seen it as Ritz Chicken Casserole as well and it involves the simplest things: 4 cups rotisserie or cooked chicken, 1 can of cream of soup (you can use celery or chicken or make your own sort) and 1 cup of sour cream. Crush a tube of Ritz crackers and add 1/2 tsp. poppy seed to that mixture. Put on top of the casserole and drizzle with butter. Bake at 375 until hot and bubbly, usually about 30 minutes.
Sounds quite tasty!
Your menu sounds good! Tonight we are having Buddha Bowls. I just roasted 2 big pans of veggies and sprouted brown rice is on the stove. I will plate up (don’t have big bowls) the rice, roasted veggies, kale salad and sliced hard-boiled egg. Tomorrow night will be Trader Joe’s chili chicken lime burgers and I’ll make sweet potato fries. Not sure about the rest of the week…my hubby works some crazy hours. We’re having friends for dinner on Saturday night, so I’m still trying to figure out the menu for that night. We rarely have company…and even though they’re really not “company”, I’m still nervous since I rarely entertain.
The Buddha Bowls sound interesting! I hope you figure out something tasty but not too complicated for your dinner Saturday. Have a great time!
I hope your week goes more to plan this time.
It’s not much of a menu, but here’s as far as I’ve managed to get with figuring out what I’m eating this week…
Monday: veggie burger, fries, and salad.
Tuesday: cheese salad sandwiches.
Wednesday: I have dentist, and I never feel like eating much after the dentist has pulled me about, not to mention the fact I’ll be tired from the outing, so I’ll probably just have some oatmeal for dinner.
I haven’t decided about the rest of the week yet.
The dentist? Oh, dear. I hate going to the dentist. Hope your appointment goes well.
Actually, it didn’t go at all… My dentist appointment ended up cancelled due to bad weather. I haven’t made a new one yet.
Well, hope you get it sorted soon. I always dread those things and am happy when it’s over.
That makes two of us! I never used to feel that way about dentists – I used to prefer them to other medical appointments – but after how much hastle and pain dentists have caused me over the past couple of years, I now stick them firmly in the same catagory as all the other doctors I dread visiting.
