Menu Plan Monday

I have decided to participate in Org Junkie's Menu Plan Monday carnival. She easily gets over 400 participants each week. I am joining for motivation in meal planning. There are some weeks where I do fairly well, but most weeks I'm back to my old habits and stressful last-minute dinners.

So here is my menu for the week:
  • Monday -- Turkey Lentil Soup (crock pot), green salad. This is a new recipe; we'll see how it turns out.
  • Tuesday -- Tuna Melts, veggies or green salad.
  • Wednesday -- Thai Chicken (crock pot), rice, veggies. This is my first time trying this recipe, but it sounds so yummy.
  • Thursday -- Chinese Chicken and Cabbage. This is one of our favorites.
  • Friday -- Salmon and Asparagus
  • Saturday -- Taco Bar
  • Sunday -- Chicken and White Bean Chili (crock pot), green salad. I am adapting two different recipes to better fit my family's tastes.
I want to start posting some of my favorite recipes. If you see something you would like to try, let me know and I'll post the recipe asap.

Happy Monday!

Oh, salmon and asparagus! That sounds so good. I miss having fresh salmon. Hope you have a good week!

We are big seafood fans, though we avoided it when we lived in the mid-west and the south (we had some bad experiences).

But alas, the salmon for this week is frozen. I bought a big, fresh fillet at Costco on sale a few weeks ago. We ate half fresh and now we are eating the other half from the freezer. Hopefully, it is still good.
