This was an interesting week . . . I guess I am not back into the swing of making lunches, because we ran out of EVERYTHING by my "grocery store day"! I resorted to canned mandarin oranges in the lunch boxes . . . and PB&J sandwiches made on hot dog buns. Ooops! :) Out of desperation, I sent Sean to the Farmers' Market (by himself!!) yesterday with 20 bucks and a wagon, and told him to buy some fruit for lunch. He came home with the biggest watermelon I have ever seen. :) So we made it one more day . . .
I also couldn't find the pound of ground beef that I KNOW I HAD SOMEWHERE IN THE FREEZER, so we had to put off our hamburger night until later this week. Luckily, I had a couple frozen steaks (oh darn) that were very nice with grilled garden veggies. Not bad! Here we go for another week:
Thursday: Shellfish paella
Friday: Hamburgers! Corn on the cob, caprese salad
Saturday: Shish kabobs, sauteed greens, homemade flatbread (good for lunches!)
Sunday: Baked chicken legs/thighs, Greek salad
Monday: leftovers or breakfast for dinner
Tuesday: Pork tenderloin, mashed potatoes, peas, grilled garden veggies
Have a great week!
Love,
Kathy
P.S. The kids were NOT impressed with the grilled eggplant/red onion/bruschetta pasta that I made to go along with the steak. I have a lot of leftovers to eat for lunch!!
P.P.S. If you have any good Swiss chard recipes, please share. We are building a (small) deck off the side of our house (the 2 x 4 "temporary" steps from our addition are rotting away . . . ) and my row of chard is in the way. We need to eat it before the permit gets approved . . . ! :)
