Menu Plan Monday~DF Style 9/28

Tweet

‘I’m excited about this week because I want to practice on some recipes for the in-laws when they come to visit.  Shhhh…I think my niece might read this so she’ll get a little preview.  Remember, I’m cooking for a family of 4 and two are 4 yr olds (i.e. picky eaters). While cutting my coupons for All You September 2009, I saw some yummy delicious recipes I want to try so here we go:

Monday: Grilled Chicken with Southwestern Salad (serves 6 – which is good because we’ll have leftovers) – Pg 63 September 2009 issue

Tuesday:

Wednesday: Braised Brisket w/sweet potatoes (pg 102 October 2009 issue) – any suggestions on the veggies?

Thursday: Left over’s ( I don’t like to cook heavy two night in a row)

Friday: Chicken with Herbed Dumplings (serves 4) pg 84 September 2009 Issue. I love this dish because it doesn’t require allot of ingredients.

Saturday: We will be doing our $1 Restaurant.com deal. Last week we did Little Buddha in the Palms. They have a $35 minimum and it was good!

Sunday: Pear & Apple Shortcakes (pg 100 September 2009 Issue) I’m not doing Crock pot Sunday because I want the focus to be on the desert.  We will have a Hearty Salad with meet & fruit to curb  our protein urges.

You’ll find that the dishes I choose to make have a variety of seasonings like herbs and fresh veggies (which I love to buy at Fresh & easy). My family has a history of High Blood Pressure so I want to continue the flavor or all the dishes I love but with less the salt.  I’ve found that by adding the fresh veggies and herbs I can compensate with the salt flavor.  I hope you enjoy any of the recipes I’ve picked out for my family this week.
