Menu Plan Monday - October 26


It's time for Menu Plan Monday once again with Organizing Junkie. My eight-year-old daughter assisted me with this plan. I hope you like it.

Monday

Shake & Bake Chicken (the mixes were on sale at Meijer last week)
Baked potatoes with sour cream
Lemon-pepper Brussels sprouts (Simple & Delicious Nov/Dec 2009)
Apple Tart (Not sure what recipe to use yet)

Tuesday

Hamburger Vegetable Soup
Small pot of plain veggie soup for my vegetarian son
Applesauce
Homemade white bread

Wednesday

Enchiladas with black beans and corn
Canned peaches

Thursday

Pizza & pop

Friday

Cheesy scalloped potatoes and ham (using hash browns for potatoes)*
 Fried cabbage**
Salads

Saturday

Meat loaf
Mashed potatoes
Green beans

Sunday

On Your Own

*To hand shred the hash browns easily, bake scrubbed potatoes half-way. Cool and then shred. They don't turn brown this way.

**Fried cabbage is made with cabbage I had taken from my garden, blanched, and then frozen. Melt a little butter in a skillet and fry the thawed and drained cabbage. Season, while frying, with salt an pepper.

We've been enjoying cabbage lately. After all, it's inexpensive. My husband sautes it with onion and garlic. It leaves al dente.
Looks like you have a yummy week planned.
Have a great Halloween or Harvest Festival!
