Menu Plan March 6, 2010

orchid at franklin parkIngredients and Inspirations:

  • Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras/Shrove Tuesday = great food traditions! We care little for the various religious meanings; we adopt the recipes we love.
  • Dine Originals Restaurant Week = date lunch and maybe dinner out
  • Mashed potato leftovers from my sister's birthday dinner = potato pancake makings
  • March Charcutepalooza challenge = home made cured brisket ready to cook this week

Monday - Lasagna roll ups with homemade tomato sauce, homemade ricotta from Snowville milk and fresh cooked spinach

Tuesday - Pumpkin pancakes with homemade butter milk and home grown & frozen pumpkin puree, king cake for dessert

Wednesday - Bowman & Landis turkey thighs, potato pancakes, frozen green beans

Thursday - dinner at friends

Friday - Rachel Ruben sandwiches, homemade applesauce, potato chips

Saturday - leftovers or dinner out at a Dine Originals restaurant

Sunday - family dinner/reception after cousin's Eagle Scout ceremony
