Menu Plan Monday, 12/1 – 12/7
December 1, 2008
Better late with a plan than never!
Our Thanksgiving was wonderful, except that I need to make a concerted effort to spend more time out of the kitchen and hanging out with my family next year. The Brussels Sprouts with Chestnuts & Dried Cranberries were probably the biggest success out of the dishes I cooked, though overall I didn’t feel the food I made was my best ever. It was fine though, and the turkey came out perfectly (J.’s doing).
It’s hard to believe it’s December already. Such a busy month! There have been so many things I’ve pushed off to “after Thanksgiving” and now here we are. Hope you had a great holiday, too.
Monday: Chicken sausage and onions, pasta, grape tomatoes
Tuesday: Baked Tofu in Almond & Cilantro Sauce, whole wheat spaghetti
Wednesday: Winter Lentil Soup (from the freezer), hard-boiled eggs, challah rolls
Thursday: Neil Sedaka’s Chicken, farm share veggies, egg noodles
Friday: Roasted chicken, farm share veggies, challah
Saturday: Out to dinner?
Sunday: Baked Ziti (I make a meatless version), salad, Italian bread

I love that you make a weekly meal plan!
I’ve been trying to get in the habit of doing one, myself, but I can never seem to get motivated…
Thanks for the inspiration!
