this week's menu features a lot of recent favorites. a quick one to put together as i simply relied on what we had enjoyed eating the past couple of weeks. well, except for tonight's dinner which was a favorite from a while back.
meatless monday : quesadilla casserole. i've made this before, but it's been awhile. as much as the girls love black beans, this should be an instant success.
i've selected monday as a night of the week for our family to eat a meatless meal as it tends to be more budget friendly as well as a friendlier option for the environment. my meat and potato eating husband tends to go along with this idea because i also make him a yummy dessert in addition to his meatless meal. what can i say, i'm nice like that.
tuesday : pot roast glazed with red wine and cranberries. i have a bottle of merlot in the pantry just asking to be used. i used a shiraz in this recipe last time so we'll see what happens with a different wine. planning on adding more cranberries than called for this goes wrong.
wednesday : nachos. this is usually leftovers or baked potato night to help clean out the fridge but nachos sound so good right now!
thursday : chorizo potato frittata. we tried this for the first time a couple of weeks ago and there weren't any leftovers. the girls are probably in the minority of babies/toddlers that eat chorizo. i love how diverse their tastes are.
friday : pizza. have i mentioned lately how i love kicking off our weekend with pizza? a perfect chance for us all to unwind and enjoy each other's company.
