Previous Week (Meal Plan 7/19-7/25)
Monday, I made balsamic chicken with white rice. The leftovers were eaten on Wednesday. Tuesday, we ate ground beef tacos with homemade flour tortillas and tomato salsa. I was going to make guacamole, but when I cut into the avocados they were spoiled. Betty Crapper should have refrigerated them when they were ready a few days before. Lesson learned. Thursday and Sunday, we had spaghetti and salad. Betty Crapper will never, ever tire of spaghetti. She has tired of pizza. Last week I ate more pizza than I did as a freshman in college many years ago. I had pizza for lunch Tuesday, dinner Friday, dinner Saturday, lunch Sunday. NO MORE PIZZA (at least in the next week). Only Friday's pizza was homemade. Unfortunately I never made the peach chicken and it will be carried over to this week.
Meal Plan 7/26-8/1
Monday: four cheese baked penne
Tuesday: peach chicken with white rice
Wednesday: ham fried rice
Thursday: chicken parmesan
Friday: mini meat loaves with buttermilk mashed potatoes
Saturday: grilled pork tenderloin
Sunday: TBD
Baking/Sweets Wish List
Last week we finished eating the Tiramisu cake and I made lemon sorbet and raspberry granita (look for upcoming post). I still have a good amount in the freezer. If I have time I may make chocolate chip cookies.
I reserve the right to make substitutions and deletions due to laziness!

Have a fantastic week and thank you for stopping by!
Ground beef tacos is one of my families favorite meals, we're having it next week. Looking forward to seeing your review of that peach chicken recipe.
ReplyDeleteI made homemade tortillas last week when I saw your post. I loved it and so did my family. Just a little time consuming, but once you got used to how thin they need to be it wasn't that hard. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteHeading to the supermarket today. I think I may try a few of your meals this week. Yummy yummy.
ReplyDeletesounds like a great week!
ReplyDeletemenus are always subject to change ;-)
April, I make peach chicken a lot and love it. It's an Ellie Krieger recipe. I have a post about it.
ReplyDeleteKimberly, you are most welcome.
Liz, I have to head to the supermarket too. ughhh.
SnoWhite, thanks. Let's see how much I actually get done.
That picture of the pizza is making my mouth seriously water!
ReplyDeleteYour menu looks great this week.
ReplyDeleteI remember the peach chicken! Fantastic. I'm going to make it. Thanks! Sue
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had a tasty week! I adore peach chicken, it's one of my favorite dishes. Can't wait to see your version next week!
ReplyDeleteI need to make lemon sorbet! Judging by the picture, we have the same ice cream maker :) Raspberry granita though has me in a berry mood...maybe a raspberry sorbet?
ReplyDeleteYum! Thanks for the ideas!

ReplyDeleteThe salad and pizza last week look delicious. You took some great photos!
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering where Betty Crapper is this Monday!
ReplyDeleteIt's been one of those days/weekends. Hopefully I'll get my mp posted tomorrow. We ate at Outback tonight.
