Weekly menu

Monday: Greek Chicken in crockpot - not likely since I don't think we have any more chicken. Some kind of pasta most likely.
Tuesday: hopefully we still have power with the cold front. Soup! and grilled cheese sandwiches ~ or boys can fend, since I have to take The Lovely Daughter to the airport to go back to school.
Wednesday: Chicken of some sort
Thursday: Lamb Shanks in the crockpot
Friday: karate night
Saturday:  Fish
Sunday:  Omelettes

Tonight was pancakes, with bacon and more of the Dale City strawberries and Indian River orange slices.

Mojo grilled chicken

Nothing like a little mojo marinade :)

Actually, it was a great supper. The Lovely Daughter requested asparagus, and it was actually on sale at the Giant. We also had steamed broccoli and scalloped potatoes. Leftover champagne to drink doesn't hurt either!

New Year goals

No-junk crockpot recipes: 100 Days of NO Processed Meals

I don't really have anything against processed food - there is a place in the world for Velveeta - but I don't really like the flavor of canned "cream of whatever" soups.

TMOTH bought a big chunk of ground beef the other day, so I suspect burgers are on the menu fairly soon. Although since we don't have buns for today, it's likely to be tomorrow.

As always, the years starts off with menu planning :)
Wednesday: Hoppin' John and collards for lunch; freezer diving for dinner [edit -TMOTH got buns, so we had burgers]
Thursday: Burgers [edit - chicken from the freezer]
Friday: likely pizza night in Damascus
Saturday: lamb shanks [or chili?] in the crockpot, "good rolls"
Sunday: pancakes
Monday: Greek chicken in crockpot
