Menu Plan Monday ~ March 26, 2012

Monday:

The homemade tortillas I made recently were SO good and easy enough that I hope I’ll never resort to buying them again. Today I plan to make a double or triple batch. I’ll use some tonight. We like to put a scoop of lentil rice casserole in a tortilla and then add the usual taco toppings. I’ll refrigerate enough tortillas for Thursday’s enchiladas and then freeze the rest. The “guacamole” is just a simple mixture of diced avocado, tomatoes, sour cream and some seasoning. 
  • lentil rice casserole
  • homemade tortillas
  • lettuce, tomato, green onions, cheese, sour cream
  • homemade guacamole and tortilla chips
Tuesday:
  • roasted chicken
  • mashed potatoes
  • spicy roasted cauliflower
  • green beans
  • homemade biscuits
Wednesday:
I’ll save most of the leftover chicken for sandwiches and then boil the carcass to make a nice broth. If there is any leftover cauliflower, I’ll toss that in plus whatever other veggies sound good at the time. I currently have almost 5 pounds of carrots in the refrigerator so I’ll certainly include some of those. 
  • soup
  • homemade bread
Thursday:
I saw this enchilada recipe on Pinterest and thought it sounded very interesting. I have some sweet potatoes on hand which I need to use so I’m going to give this a try. For the rice and beans, I’ll cook some rice in my rice cooker, add a drained can of black beans, the last of the jar of salsa in the fridge, maybe a handful of frozen corn and then season with cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. I’ll then freeze the leftovers which will make a good starter for a Mexican soup. 
  • Chorizo and sweet potato enchiladas
  • rice and black beans 
  • salad
Friday:
  • waffles
  • organic sausage links
  • fruit smoothies
Saturday:
  • homemade tomato bisque soup
  • quesadillas made with homemade tortillas
