Menu Plan Monday (a teensy bit early)
I’m worn out today as I plan the menu for the week (I do these on Sunday), so I’m pretty sure everything I plan will be on the easy side of life. (I got a great compliment at work last week… a single girl complimented my Coca-Cola cake that I took for a food day, and she said we were going to do cooking classes at night. When I said I wanted to go, too, she said, ‘No, Chel, you’re teaching it.’ Isn’t that sweet?!)
Sunday - stuffed pasta shells
(chopped chicken mixed with a feta/spinach cheese spread stuffed into cooked pasta shells and covered with crushed tomatoes and Italian seasoning)
Monday - turkey tacos with fresh corn
Tuesday - wonton soup (my very favorite soup… with plenty of hidden veggies for the kids)
Wednesday - fettucini with bacon and corn (recipe from this month’s Cookie magazine - the only parenting magazine that doesn’t make me feel guilty)
Thursday - baked lemon pepper chicken with fresh veggie medley (whatever the outdoor market has that day sauted with olive oil and fresh basil)
Friday - BBQ eye of round steak served over rice (This is Josh’s recipe… we’re going to have the same meal & have a long-distance Monk/Psych party.)
Saturday - Brinner - Eliza’s request - turkey bacon, biscuits, hash browns, eggs

The fettucini sounds delicious!
Doesn’t it? I can hardly wait to try it!
Ooooh, wonton soup? That sounds delish! Can you post the recipe … or have you and I just need to dig for it? Every looks good, and by this time in the summer it’s gotta be fast and easy or it’s take out!
Cheers, Kiy
I posted my recipe this morning. Try it, you’ll like it.
Thank you Aunt Chel for cooking meals and lunches for me last week. I had an awesome time! I wish they would hurry up and put the movie online. I keep checking. Hayden
I keep checking, too, Hayden. And we had a fabulous time with you, too!
Yummy menu. The baked lemon pepper chicken sounds delicious.
The joke in my family is that I’ll eat anything with lemon pepper on it. And here in Florida, we’ve always got plenty of fresh lemons.
Hi Chel, Saturday is right up my alley, sounds so good! That was the sweetest comment about you teaching the class. Of course you could! You go girl!
Wasn’t it? I was just delighted. And as for brinner, it’s one of our very favorite things. And now that I’ve tricked them into eating turkey bacon, I’m going to aim for turkey breakfast sausage.
That’s it. I’m coming to live with you!
BTW, for a spin on the stuffed shells, cook some lasagna noodles and roll the cheese/chicken mixture up in each one, then top w/ your crushed tomatoes and maybe some mozz or parmesan. Tastes the same, but might shake things up for the kiddos!
You’re welcome for dinner anytime. Bring the fam. Anytime you’re in Central Florida, I’ll have you all over for a meal. We’re messy but fun.
