This week my menu planning is a bit different. I don’t actually have a menu made for this week, and I probably won’t be making a grocery trip. So I’m just picking up a few recipes here and there that fit with what I have in my pantry and look amazing… and that’s what we’ll be eating this week. Voila. I give you the blog-browsing-flexible-nonshopping-menu plan for my household this week:
- These Lazy Day Cinnamon Rolls from Tasty Thoughts blog look amazing. Joe’s day off is Thursday this week, so we’ll probably have these Thursday for a late breakfast. And then an early lunch… I love cinnamon rolls.
- For dinner tonight, Spicy Pinto Beans and Ham from Are You Hungry? blog. I have a big ham bone in the fridge that I need to use up, and I always have beans. We’re on.
- From Laura at Min/Min, I’m grabbing a chicken salad recipe that sounds great. I love chicken salad with fruit in it, and I just happen to have dried cranberries and apples. I have a couple of chickens in the freezer (always) so we’ll have this for Tuesday or Wednesday. I better get that chick out to thaw…
- I think this recipe for Roasted Vegetables in the Crockpot looks amazing. Found the recipe from the link on Practicing Thrift blog, which is something I need to do this week… see how well that works out?
- From In the Moment blog I followed the link to this Chicken, Corn, and Tomatillo Chili which looks and sounds and, I’m sure, smells and tastes amazing. Now tomatillos are not something I stock regularly – call me crazy – but I’ll probably have to purchase diapers for Wick before Friday anyway….
- If I can, I’m going to make a batch of these Bee Rocks from the Happy Housewife blog. I’m going out of town on Saturday (yes, Valentine’s Day…) and will be leaving my man with no cook but himself until Tuesday… he’d appreciate something made ahead for a quick meal.
- I also really like the sound of this Pasta Fagioli soup from $5 Dinners blog. And since it’s only $5, I can swing picking up the couple of ingredients I don’t have already. You know, when I go get diapers and tomatillos.
The End. Happy Cooking, everyone!
