Menus 1/24/11 - 1/30/11

 Monday 1/24: Tangerine Rosemary Chicken (from the freezer), couscous, green salad.

Tuesday 1/25: Cheesy Pasta Dinner (making two, freezing the second), Italian Cheese Bread, green salad.

Wednesday 1/26: Chicken Enchilada Soup, Mexican Cornbread, green salad.

Thursday 1/27: Crunchy beef tacos (freezing extra taco filling).

Friday 1/28: Lemon Chicken (made in advance and frozen in a Ziploc) [without the rice mentioned in the recipe], Garlic Pasta, green salad.

Saturday 1/29: Beef and Bean Enchiladas, Lundberg Organic Brown Rice - Spanish-style.

Sunday 1/30: Breakfast for Dinner - Sausage Breakfast Muffins (freezing extras), eggs, potatoes.

A note about veggies: You don't see a lot of fruit/vegetable sides listed on the menu plan. We DO eat green salad almost every night (and usually at lunchtime as well), and the salads are topped with a variety of raw vegetables. We also have fruits/vegetables as sides pretty regularly, but they tend to be mostly un-planned - that is, they consist of whatever we have received in our produce co-op box that week (if we ordered one), or whatever looked good/is in season/was inexpensive when we did our weekly produce/perishables grocery run.  But since I plan the menus a month in advance and prepare the blog posts in advance as well, the fruits/vegetables generally don't make it into the post.

All the best menu plans are posted at www.orgjunkie.com!

    I'm curious about the recipe for the tangerine rosemary chicken. That sounds delicious.
