Our Menu This Week

Shortly after I discovered the blogging community a few months ago (yes, just a few months… I know… I know…) I quickly made it a point to stop by Orgjunkie.com for my weekly menu planning fix. I love to try new recipes, and it fascinates me to see what different meals are prepared by people all over the country (world?). Now that I have my own blog, I want to join the fun! Here’s what we’ll eat this week. (I’ve got another two weeks of planning three meals a day until hubby heads back to teaching. He eats lunch at school.)

Monday, 7/21

• fried eggs, cinnamon rolls
• leftovers or sandwiches, veggies, fruit
• new potatoes (from our garden) with grilled bratwurst and sweet corn on the cob (that we picked from my uncle’s field)

Tuesday, 7/22

• waffles, sausage
• fresh fruit, veggies, yogurt
• BBQ meatballs, cottage cheese potatoes (new recipe), squash and zucchini casserole, homemade bread, cake (haven’t decided what kind yet), homemade ice cream — Company at our house!

Wednesday, 7/23

We’ve recently been blessed with garden extras from family and friends — I’ll change my menu plan on a whim for fresh garden veggies!
