Menu Plan for Week of August 30, 2009

Last week’s favorites were the enchilada stacks and Aztec vegetables.  I was impressed that we finished a couple of pounds of zucchini through the Aztec vegetable recipe.  For this week, a lot of rice recipes are on offer.  On Saturday, I plan to take the contents of the freezer bag where I accumulate bits and pieces of leftovers and make a pot of soup.  If it turns out well, I’ll post a recipe soon.  This menu should be entirely gluten-free.

Breakfasts: Healthy granola, Greek yogurt, fruit
Lunches: Leftovers, chipotle hummus and vegetable sticks

Dinners:
Sunday: Speedy red beans and rice, collard greens, strawberry sorbet

Monday: Chickpeas w/ turkey, brown rice, sauteed spinach, fruit salad

Tuesday: Brown rice pasta w/ turkey meatballs, green bean salad, green salad

Wednesday: Indonesian spicy rice w/ egg, Chinese vegetables, fruit salad

Thursday: out

Friday: Thai red curry w/ broccoli and zucchini, brown rice, cucumber salad

Saturday: Everything soup (using the bag of freezer odds and ends), orange coleslaw, fruit

The Indonesian spicy rice and Red Curry both sound fantastic!

Have a great week,

I love brown rice…I wish we ate it more often at home! :)

[...] A Modern Gal’s hubby just doesn’t enjoy eggplant- seems like these husbands (including mine) should form a club. hehe. But she has a great international menu planned with red curry and Indonesian spicy rice w/ egg that you should check out. [...]

Becca, I only fix brown rice at home now. It seems so much tastier to me than white rice.
