Planning our evening meals in advance frees up my gardening & writing time.
I challenge you to plan your menu for this week: July 24th-31st and post below.
Consider garden abundance when Menu planning!
It can be as simple as:
Monday: Baked Chicken, broccoli, salad, fresh fruit
Tuesday: Pork loin chops, wild rice, watermelon
Get it? This way you have a plan & you won’t need to think about food when
4 o’clock rolls around and everyone is starving!
see you
ML
I’ve done this for years. It is the only way to get food on the table during the week. The thinking has already been done!
T. I know you have a great menu planned this week, won’t you share? When is the formal dress sale? I have 2 dresses of Marianna’s to sell. ML
No menu planned this week…..still juicing. haha! I could give you my juice recipes!
formal dress/clothing sale? date?
I was really lazy last week so you got me motivated! Plus, I got to spend a Sunday doing my favorite thing…thinking about food and drink ( fork & cork ). Here goes:
Monday: Lime Soup, grilled harissa corn, guacamole, greek yogurt w/ honey
Mexican beer
Tuesday: “Salad Lyonnaise” or Fried egg & BLT salad, baguette, blackberries for desert. Viognier: Yalumba
Wednesday: Grilled vegetable skewers, orzo & herbs,lemon ices. Sauvignon Blanc: Cloudy Bay ( if feeling rich or deprived ) .
Thursday: Peel and Eat shrimp, tomato pie, green salad and summer cherries
Dry Reisling: Pewsey Vale @ Sams Club
Can’t commit to friday, saturday, sunday yet but am excited about having a plan for the first 4 days!
