Happy Sunday! If you’re currently on winter break, I hope you’re enjoying it as much as we are. We’ve eaten so much vetebrod there’s no way we could be anything but happy.
While I’m sort of skipping meal planning this week, I do know some of the food we’ll be having. All of the grandparents will be in town and it’s going to be a fun week, filled with some cooking, lots of eating, and the Rose Bowl (go Stanford!).
- Today: Dinner at friends’ home, we’ll bring two batches of Grandma Blomquist’s Brownies for dessert
- Monday: Chicken Tortilla Soup and SoNo Chocolate Ganache Cake
- Tuesday: Out to dinner
- Wednesday: No clue!
- Thursday: New Year’s Eve! I’m thinking chicken wings, Pat’s Oriental Chicken Salad, chips and dips of all kinds, cheese and crackers, bowls of M&Ms
- Friday: ROSE BOWL! Hot dogs? Nachos? Hopefully a Stanford win!
- Saturday: No clue!
- Sunday: No clue!
How’s that for a meal plan? 😉 Thank you to the faithful meal planners who posted their menus last week. You guys are the best! Just like last week, please post your menus and provide inspiration for everyone else, since I’m not doing much of that myself. 🙂
Hi! My name is Jane Maynard and you've landed yourself on my blog, This Week for Dinner™. Every Sunday I share a weekly menu...and count on you to share yours! You'll also find other deliciousness that I hope you'll enjoy!
Sunday – fried polenta with Cajun spiced shrimp
Monday – fried rice with Vietnamese summer rolls
Tuesday – gnocchi with pomodoro sauce
Wednesday – chicken tikka masala with Naan and rice
Thursday – leftovers
Friday – fresh pasta with anchovies and aglio e olio
Saturday – leftovers?
Your menu looks delicious!
Thanks Kindy! My husband is off work this week, and I am working from home, so lots of time to prep, cook, and eat new foods!
yes, ditto kindy – so fun and fancy!
Thanks! Ended up nixing the fresh pasta on Friday (not enough time), and doing a quinoa asian slaw. Then we were out of leftovers by Saturday, so went with your cilantro sour cream enchiladas (and used leftover thanksgiving turkey that had been in the freezer). Thanks for giving us a place to post our meal plans! It really helps me stay on track 🙂
Happy New Year To You All!
Wow!!! I just realized I forgot to post my menu from last week…guess we were all “a little” busy or absent minded or both. None the less we ate good and will move on to this week.
Sunday – Shrimp scampi, salad
Monday – Baked chicken, loaded potato casserole, applesauce
Tuesday – Penne pasta w/sauce, garlic bread, salad
Wednesday – Leftovers
Thursday – Out w/friends for New Year’s Eve

Here’s my plan for the week!
http://www.livehalffullblog.com/2015/12/27/meals-workouts-1227/
I only plan 5 days. The other 2 are either leftovers, sandwiches, or whatever I throw together.
Meal plan
Dec 28th through Jan 3rd
Chicken tenders, cheesy potatoes, green peas
Burgers, tator tots, raw veggies and ranch
Shrimp, rice, green beans
Baked ravioli, salad, garlic bread
Pork tenderloin, mashed potatoes, honey
that’s how I do it, too – if I ever plan more than 5 meals in a week, it’s just too much!
