Menu Monday!

Happy Monday!  Did you have a nice weekend? We had a fairly quiet one, which was nice for a change! Plus, we had cool down with the weather.  It was actually decent enough to go on a hike yesterday afternoon! Rare!

If this is your first time visiting for Menu Monday, then welcome!  This is where I share my weekly dinner menu, along with recipes.  We are a vegetarian family, so if you are also meatless, or looking for ideas for a Meatless Monday, then you’re at the right place!

This week’s menu is on the short side! We’ll be visiting family for Labor Day weekend.  Yay us!  These are all “new to me” recipes down below, except for the burgers.  Fun!

Monday:
Enchilada Spaghetti
(Swapping chicken for can of black beans, and will add corn)

Tuesday:
Huevos Racheros
(Making a batch of black beans)

Wednesday:
Veggie Burgers with Carmelized Onions & Fotina

Thursday:
Indian Lentil Curry

Menu Monday!

Happy Monday!  Hope you had a nice weekend!  We enjoyed rainy, drizzly weather here in Durham, and it was so nice!

But, our sweet little girl is teething, and she seemed to be in a more sour spirit this weekend.  Oh well.  It will end soon… until the next tooth.

If you read last week’s Menu Monday, I had several new recipes on the menu.  The Honey Mustard Brussel Sprouts slaw I made for our dinner party was a HUGE hit!! Definitely check it out.

Menu Monday!

Another Menu Monday!  I actually finished making the menu and shopping list at 2:00PM yesterday.  Not bad!  Normally the menu is created either LATE Sunday or very early Monday… so a productive Sunday.

This week I’ve been craving some old favorites and comfort food.  So you may see some serious repeats… but I was really craving it!

Menu Monday!

Well, well, Monday.  We meet again.

First, if you follow me on Instagram, you saw on Saturday a video of Elizabeth crawling!!!!!! She just decided to do it, randomly.  Yay her!

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend. Father’s Day for us was quiet.  The doctor hubby was on call on Sunday, meaning he didn’t come home from the hospital until about 6:00, and then had to go BACK in after dinner… so yay for his first Father’s Day…

He did request a pretty awesome dinner.  Last week I made this Spicy Basil Tofu.  O.M.G.  This was AMAZING!  He asked for this again for Father’s Day, and then I also made a batch of Thai Yellow Curry, so our tummies were very happy.  FYI – if you like a saucy Spicy Basil Tofu, that particular recipe is lacking.  When I made it a second time, I tripled the sauce part of the recipe.

Enough chit chat… on to the menu!
