Monday Meal Planning

Less than two weeks until Spring Break! Our weather here has been gorgeous, sunny and mild. My garden is growing nicely; and I'm longing for more beds to plant. For this week's menu, I'm mostly using all our great fresh veggies from the farm. Here's my plan for the week:

Monday: Asparagus and Mushroom Quiche

Tuesday: Fried Chicken (a la Alton Brown), roasted Rutabaga spears with fresh rosemary, salad

Wednesday: Whole wheat spaghetti and meatballs. This is a good recipe to start with if you don't have one you love! I usually use ground turkey, some of my homemade crushed tomatoes/sauce, plus one 15 oz can of tomato sauce, and only one can of tomato paste. You won't miss the sugar, so I recommend you leave it out.

Thursday: Stir fried Rice, based on a recipe from Bon Appetit, modified for veggies on hand

Friday: Homemade Pizza Night

Saturday: Grill night! Grilled chicken, sauteed greens, and baked potatoes

Sunday: Ham, coleslaw, hardboiled eggs, kielbasa... still working on this menu, but it will be based on our family traditions.

What are you making this week? If you're looking for more inspiration, check out Menu Plan Monday at orgjunkie.com!
