What's cooking: Week of 10/2/11

[Angelsfan]

I have not posted much lately. I have been really busy with school starting but have gotten much better with my menu planning. I have been planning from Sunday until Wednesday because we usually go out on Friday and Saturday and I feel like we always get talked into going out at least one random weekday to watch sports or something. Here is our menu plan:

Sunday-Southwestern Turkey Burgers, CL 9/10. Garlic Cottage Fries, RR 2/09.
Monday- Lemon Chicken Orzo Soup, Ellie Krieger. Rosemary Beer Bread adapted from Real Simple.
Tuesday- Chicken Fajitas, CL 1/11.
Wednesday- Linguine with Spicy Shrimp, CL 6/10 with steamed broccoli.

Love this thread! Heather, I'm glad that you're back - I always like your posts

My week is a little weird - I'm not doing a ton of cooking because I'm 25 weeks pregnant and TIRED, and majorly hurt my fingers in a cooking accident two weeks ago - but I'm still cooking a little

Sunday: Orecchiette with scallion green sauce (F&W)
Monday: Some kind of leftovers
Tuesay: Pot luck @ my daughter's school (we're bringing chocolate chip cookies from the cookbook Baked)
Wednesday: Mac and cheese (Joy of cooking)
Thursday: Butternut Squash Risotto (Giada from FN)
Friday: Sushi takeout (always!)
Saturday night: Break fast for Yom Kippur - I'm bringing noodle kugel (from Rosie's cookbook)
