What’s for dinner & other plans

Plans for the week

Monday buy some seed starting mix and try with lettuce seeds, Wednesday is our pre insulation walk through planning contractor visit, Thursday is dog grooming appointment and possibly artist opening reception at City Hall, Friday we babysit 8 year old granddaughter for parents date night, Saturday is Farmer’s market and possible local small symphony concert. If I do all that plus exercising, home admin/chores and reading/walking I will be happy.

Dinner plans Monday thru Sunday 

- I also want to make pumpkin pecan muffins and blueberry pancakes for breakfasts

Pasta with sauce from freezer, peppers, sausage and zucchini 

Turkey chili x2 plus cornbread

Pork chop, butternut squash, apple salad

Tuna chef salad

Salmon, green beans, rice

Chicken, peas, carrots, mixed grains

What we ate for dinner last week

Our older son was still in town and pet sitting nearby so he ate dinner with us for the first two days.

Monday - pork chops, pinto beans, hearty dinner salads, mango

Tuesday - we treated our son to Greek food from a nearby restaurant (not planned)

Wednesday - Veggie soup and hearty salad

Thursday - Cheese and cauliflower ravioli and broccoli (not planned)

Friday - Chicken, sweet potato, leftover takeout rice

Saturday - Veggie soup, Caesar salad 

Sunday - Chicken tostados (meat & tortillas from freezer) with black beans, cooked carrots

  2. Do you make a batch for multiple days of pancakes? Do you make up batter, then make them up each day, or do you make a batch and heat up daily. I love pancakes for breakfast but haven't made up a batch in a while. It's past time I do!

    1. I make a large batch, freeze them individually on a large cookie sheet before packaging, and then reheat them like frozen waffles. I really like easy to make breakfasts.

Little books - Good reads

I’ve finished three more prompts for the 52 books challenge by choosing short books. Two of them are children’s books but I enjoyed them all...
