Menu Plan Monday, 6/29 – 7/5

June 28, 2009

Summer is here! Camp starts for the boys this week, and I hope to be getting to the pool with them in the afternoons. That means fewer meals with long prep times, and also more meals that I can make in the crock pot or toaster oven (without turning on my main oven). I’m looking forward to getting our new routine established this week.

Monday: Egg salad (with eggs G. gathered during his trip to Hull-O Farms with my parents!), bagels, romaine lettuce with bleu cheese dressing

Tuesday: Pasta with broccoli rabe & ground turkey sauteed in olive oil and garlic

Wednesday: Leftovers

Thursday: Teriyaki chicken, farm share veggies, challah

Friday: Slow Cooker Ratatouille (from the freezer), whole wheat spaghetti (carried over from last week)

Saturday: Fourth of July BBQ here! We will probably do burgers (J. makes great ones) and hot dogs with all the fixings and my Dad’s potato salad

Sunday: Order in

    I made Slow Cooker Ratatouille for the 1st time and I loved it:) However, the link is not working- I looked it up on-line.

    Fixed it! Thanks for letting me know. — Dara
