Hello everyone! Today I’m doing something I have NEVER done before with my menu – I am copying and pasting last week’s menu! I had every intention of using that meal plan, but life took a little turn on Monday when I fell of the bathroom counter trying to kill a bug. Let this be a lesson to you – towel racks are only meant to support towels, not humans. I’m FINE, but it definitely threw my week off and I never did regular grocery shopping. I still cooked, but it was just throwing stuff together from around the house along with a few things I grabbed at Costco later in the week. Hence, my first ever weekly menu repeat! I debated doing this, but it’s a really good menu and I WANT to make it, so here we are!
MONDAY:
– Chicken Fried Rice (going to go for something like Behihana makes)
TUESDAY:
– Penne in vodka sauce (thanks to Michelle for the idea!)
– Garlic bread and salad
WEDNESDAY:
– Golden Moroccan Lamb Stew (another Penzeys recipe we’re trying) with rice
THURSDAY:
– Leftovers
FRIDAY:
– Carnitas tacos
– Guacamole and chips
SATURDAY:
– Eat out night
SUNDAY:
– Leftover carnitas

You know the drill, please share your menu for the week, even if it’s the same exact one as last week! Apparently that’s kosher around here. 😉

Good Job Nate!!!! Hope you are feeling better and back to normal!
nate to the rescue! 😉 I actually gave myself a concussion, so still not feeling awesome, but I’m just glad I don’t have a broken jaw, that would have been waayyyyy worse! 😉 thanks, mona!

as always, loving all your menus! keep ’em coming!
A concussion for a bug…ouch!!! I kicked the corner of my open dishwasher on December 29 and am STILL in a boot with a fracture! That along with shoulder surgery in February has slowed me down just a bit. But I digress. I was reading comments/menus/bug saga and saw your walking taco question. They are a concession stand staple! You use the small bag of chips, we use fritos but some people use Doritos, crushed a bit, then spoon in your meat and or beans, finish with other toppings of choice, and stick a fork in it…a walking taco! We do meat, black beans, lettuce, cheese, sour cream, and TJs salsa verde. (And if we’re home we cheat and just make them in a bowl.)
ah, man, your poor foot! so frustrating when the injury is over something so dumb – at least I’m not alone! 🙂
thanks for filling me in – I had never heard of walking tacos!! 🙂
