Happy New Week, Everyone!
I have a few carry-over items from last week’s meal plan because it was CRAZY HOT this past week and I ended up cooking only a few nights. One of the nights I actually cooked I was wearing my swimming suit. I think officially makes me a Californian, right? Here’s hoping we have 10-20 LESS degrees on the thermometer this week!
MONDAY:
–Caprese Salad with Crusty Bread
TUESDAY:
– Coconut Curry Chicken with Rice (sauce from Costco)
– Veggie
WEDNESDAY:
– BLTs
– Fresh Fruit
THURSDAY:
– Leftovers
FRIDAY:
– Nate and I will be attending Beyond Hunger: A Place at the Table with Heifer International in Beverly Hills! I am SO excited, and not just because I get to wear a sparkly dress and see tons of celebrities. The speakers are going to be phenomenal and we’re having a Malawi trip reunion!
– I’ll either leave pizza money for the babysitter or try to pull something together for their dinner before I head to LA (taking bets on what will actually happen!)
SATURDAY:
– Eat out
SUNDAY:
– Pasta in Cream Sauce with broccoli and chicken added

what in the world is a chicken fried cheeseburger? very curious!
Jane, my kids have started thinking of recipes they want me to make, and my second son thought of fried cheeseburgers, so we made hamburgers, battered and fried, then topped with cheese and curly fries and toppings. Everyone thought they were the best, my husband said he wanted more of them, and I couldn’t finish mine :). It was a crazy calorie bomb, but the family was happy :).
that is so awesome – love the evolution of the dish, and that you couldn’t eat it all! 😉 might have to try it sometime!
I’m all about easy meals right now…
Sun — veggie quiche, fruit
Mon — sausage & Apple stuffed acorn squash
Tues — homemade pizza
Wed — turkey chili topped with avocado
Thurs — baked potatoes topped with leftover chili
Fri — breakfast for dinner
Have a blast at the Heifer International gala! LOVE their work. And I need to make your pasta with chicken and broccoli—yum!
