Wednesday - Pesto lasagna, Farmer's Market bread, fruit
Thursday - Grilled salmon, "stackers", brown rice ("stackers" are my favorite summer garden food . . . slice and grill eggplant, zucchini, summer squash, onion, and pepper and then stack with fresh mozzarella, sliced tomato, and basil . . . drizzle with olive oil and balsamic. YUM!)
Friday - Beef and mushroom tacos, melon
Saturday - We are off to Milwaukee for the Meyers' wedding . . . kids get hot dogs, corn on the cob, fruit
Sunday - Farmers Market corn chowder and grilled cheese
Monday - over to Aunt Anne and Uncle Tom's new house for dinner! :)
Tuesday - leftovers or breakfast for dinner
Wednesday - Hamburgers, garden veggies, grilled sweet potatoes
Pretty easy week! You will notice that around this time of year when the garden produce is in full swing, that the menu is basically garden veggies with some twist . . . for example, "stackers" and "garden veggie pasta" are basically the same thing . . . just served a different way. Tacos tend to be "taco meat" with grilled and chopped garden veggies. Rinse. Repeat. The kids get tired of it, but I NEVER DO!!! :)
Good luck with the menu planning!
Love,
Kathy
Thanks, Kathy!
ReplyDeleteI need to find a wedding and a housewarming dinner to ease up meal planning.
Farm veggies are the best! Our garden got scorched this summer, especially when we were gone earlier this month. Somehow the Japanese eggplant, mangos, shiso and basil survived. Hopefully a late planting of tomatoes and peppers will yield a harvest late September.
Hope the festivities are fun!
