Menu Monday ~ October 7, 2013

Fall arrived here in Oklahoma this weekend and while it will be back into the 70s and low 80s this week, the cooler mornings and evenings mean a switch to cool-weather meals seems reasonable. 

Monday:
I have leftover mashed potatoes so I’ll make a shepherds pie with corn, peas, carrots, onion, squash, green beans and cannelli beans. Being so chock-full of veggies, plus protein from the beans makes this a one-dish meal. A couple of freshly-baked cookies and a cup of coffee will finish off the meal nicely. 

  • vegetarian shepherds pie
  • Oatmeal Pumpkin Cookies
Tuesday:
I’m currently out of salad greens so we’ll opt for soup as a starter. 
  • leek soup (as an appetizer)
  • pasta in red pepper cream sauce
  • French bread
Wednesday
We both have things to do in town so we are going to meet up afterwards for a late dinner. 

Thursday:
  • shrimp and sausage gumbo
  • French bread
Friday:
  • chicken (I haven’t decided how I plan to cook it yet.)
  • garlic mashed potatoes
  • green beans
  • salad
What’s on your menu this week? Are you starting to cook “fall food” yet?
