Admittedly, this menu isn’t that different from last week. We have a lot of the same things in the pantry still, and the ones that were hits will be enjoyed again. I know that Erica and I could happily eat Minestra every day this winter, but I try to keep it down to one day a week!
Menu Plan Week of December 17-23
Monday 12/17: Tuna Noodle Casserole (I am going to give this recipe a try. I have never made it before, but I have a can of tuna I need to do something with. I hope the kids will just see the peas and noodles and give it a chance!)
Tuesday 12/18: Duck egg quiche with salad and roasted turnips (my neighbor gave me a big bag of beautiful turnips that he grew, I’m not a huge fan of boiled turnips, but they are great when you roast them with a little olive oil, salt & pepper!)
Wednesday 12/19: Chili with sour cream, cheese, corn chips and pickled banana peppers
Friday 12/21: Homemade whole wheat pizza with homegrown salad
Saturday 12/22: Roast with brown rice and gravy served with something green (or orange) from the garden.
