A nice dinner for the grownups - kids wound up with Kraft mac & cheese (which they're very happy with, at least). The onion soup was good - homemade beef broth to make it, melty onions...yum. I'd gotten an Australian olive oil at Trader Joe's last week, and it's very nice for a little oil and vinegar salad dressing.
I don't even remember what we had for dinner last night.
Menu planning...need to do more of this. I have chicken backs in the fridge to make chicken stock, so maybe a pot pie at some point...leftover bacon for quiche...but don't want two pastry-based main dishes the same week. So, the menu draft:
Sunday - Chicken? Need to go to the grocery and see what's on sale.
(make chicken stock, saute mushrooms and make pie crust for quiche, bag up veggies for lunches for everybody)
Monday- Quiche, salad, fruit
Tuesday - pork of some sort, fried apples, broccoli or green beans
Wednesday - steak, baked potatoes, salad (maybe too much salad for TMOTH, but I'll be happy).
Thursday - chicken, some sort of vegetable, probably some sort of potato - O'Brien potatoes, maybe?
Friday - lasagna and garlic bread (and probably salad again.)
Saturday-
