Menu Plan Monday ~ October 31, 2011

Click here for more menu ideas!

I don't want to say it too loudly but it looks as though this week will be a little less busy than recent weeks. I'm hoping to get some extra baking done, as well as a few more complicated meals than we've had lately. Next week is crammed with various activities and meetings and then the holiday season is upon us. Ready, set, go!

Monday:
  • Vegetarian Enchilada Casserole (crockpot) (didn't make it last week)
  • salad
  • oatmeal pumpkin cookies (new-to-me recipe -- If they're yummy, I'll share the link.)
I'll also be baking some banana bread since I have some very ripe bananas to use up.

Tuesday:
  • Sweet and Sour Meatballs (David's favorite and something I haven't made in a long time)
  • rice (will cook extra and save for fried rice and gumbo later this week)
  • salad
Wednesday:
  • Frosted Cauliflower
  • glazed carrots
  • green beans
  • homemade bread or rolls
Thursday:
  • homemade egg rolls
  • fried rice
  • fresh fruit
Friday:
  • gumbo
  • potato salad
Saturday:
It's supposed to be a beautiful day so I'm thinking one final use of the grill before we cover it up for the winter.
  • grilled chicken with homemade bbq sauce
  • leftover potato salad
  • green salad
  • baked beans
Anything special on your menu this week? Remember, if you have a recipe to share, I'm always open for guest posts.

Happy Halloween!
