Menu Plan Monday, 2/1 – 2/7
February 1, 2010
My stand-out recipe from last week is the Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup with Flanken (flanken is a cut of beef short ribs). I absolutely adored this dish, and although I’m the only one who has tried it so far, I promise it’s a great Crock-Pot recipe! It’s very flexible and could be made without meat as well.
I also made a Jack Daniel’s Cake with Buttered Whiskey Glaze for my dad’s birthday, and whoa was it potent! I’d like to make it for a Super Bowl party, but I might be kicked out if I don’t bring the Chocolate Trifle I bring every year.
Monday: Leftovers
Tuesday: Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup with Flanken (from the freezer), French bread, garden salad
Wednesday: Crock Pot Chicken Vindaloo, rice, Cauliflower Poppers, naan (store-bought)
Thursday: Spaghetti with meatballs (from the freezer), garden salad
Friday: Roasted chicken, steamed broccoli/cauliflower mix, challah
Saturday: Order in
Sunday: At a Super Bowl party

When you roast your chicken, do you just do breasts, or the whole thing in a roaster pan, or another way?

As the Dad who ate that cake, I think I’m still hungover. Truthfully, though, delicious to the last drop!
