This menu plan is vegetarian and vegan aside from the shrimp. Can’t stop eating my shrimpies! The last time I did a Menu Plan Monday was almost a year ago on April 26th, 2009.

What is on your menu plan this week?
I love menu planning 🙂 This week for us:
Yesterday was tacos.
Today, stuffed bell peppers (risotto, mozzarella) and salad
Monday = soup and loaded baked potatoes
Tuesday = ciabatta sandwiches with oven fries
Wednesday = pasta with veggies and vodka sauce and goat cheese
Thursday = Indian mix with tofu, brown rice, naan
Friday = calzones 🙂
my workweek is even more of a mess than usual if I don’t menu plan! I don’t assign nights in advance though, just buy 5-6 days worth of stuff at Saturday farmers market and make whatever strikes me out of my list when I get home from work(this is especially essential when the weather could be anything between 80 and sunny and 45 and rainy). On my list this week:
Caesar salad
Black bean, kale, avocado, mango and roasted red pepper salad
Braised white beans, shiitake mushrooms, and greens with roasted beets on the side
Refried black beans; roasted potato, poblano pepper, red onion and spinach salad
Hummus, guacamole and veggies
Oooh, menu plans. Such fun times!
We had pasta tonight which will fuel us through tomorrow night and lunches into the week.
At some point, we’re going to make chicken in salsa verde – homemade salsa verde, put that and chicken thighs into the slow cooker, and we’ll have two nights of eats (plus a lunch, here and there).
What a great menu! Our planned meals are on my blog.
Welcome back to MPM! Sounds like you have a great week planned!
