The meal plan for this week at our place!
DINNERS
Sunday: Grilled burgers with two-potato herb & lemon salad & baked beans. We had a friend over and wanted to grill out. One of my favorite go-to summer recipes is this potato salad, which eschews (I love that word) mayo for apple cider vinegar, olive oil, herbs, and lemon zest.
I like to do this with three kinds of potatoes, but you can do it with just one or two.
Monday: Carolina BBQ pulled chicken, rice, and vegetables. This is a really busy day for us both, so it was a crockpot meal.
Tuesday: Vegetable frittata with sorrel soup. The sorrel soup from last week got moved to this week. I’d over-planned food, so just left the sorrel in the garden.
Wednesday: Cannellini au Gratin with roasted grapes and olives. Ditto tuesday–we just had too many leftovers for me to make this last week.
Thursday: Pork medallions over veggie New’dles. I love New’dles. They’re very thin vegetable strips (I use zucchini, yellow summer squash, and a few others raw, and par-boil carrots and diakon). They look incredible sophisticated on a plate, and are perfect for those of us who are trying to do less grains and/or carbs.
Friday: Leftovers.
Saturday: Rustic Cabbage Soup with crusty bread. Thadd makes amazing cabbage soup with our homemade chicken stock, and we can get local cabbage and potatoes, too.
