FYI - My homemaking goal is listed below my Menu Plan.
Menu Plan
Breakfast Menu Plan
Lunch - leftovers or whatever for me (kids eat school lunch and they typically provide lunch for my husband at work)
Dinners (we eat a primalish /paleoish diet - limited grains/sugar):
- KISS night (keep it simple silly - same thing every week). Chef salads: spinach, romaine, chicken, bacon, thawed peas, cheese, green olives and hard boiled eggs .
- Baked Potato Soup with sweet potato fries and green beans or this recipe from allrecipes.
- Roast beef (see notes below) trying this method posted at MarksDailyApple
- Mini Meatzas
- Comfort Roast and Horseradish Sauce - from OnlyPenniesAPlate. Served with rice and broccoli
- Taco potatoes (taco meat over baked potatoes - still haven't had this yet) serve with salads.
- Hubby cooks - I always try to have meat on hand and he's great at whipping stuff up. Last week he made bacon and eggs.
Qdoba's steak - SimplyRecipes , Paleo biscuits,Italian Cream Cheese Chicken, Popper Potatoes
My notes for meal #3....I read this method of preparing meat over MarksDailyApple:
Take a beef roast, braise it, shred it, marinate it in lime juice, garlic, cilantro, salt, pepper, paprika and cumin overnight, then fry it in olive oil until crispy. Put about a pound of that onto a plate. Top the steak with cheddar cheese, cream cheese and fresh pico de gallo loaded with lime juice and cilantro. Top that with chopped romaine lettuce, sliced avocado, more lime juice and more cilantro. Seriously, the BEST meal in the world. I'd eat that over anything. Filet mignon, all you can eat sushi, cheeseburger and fries, pizza, whatever. Nothing beats that. NOTHING. Except MAYBE if you replace the beef with smoked pork shoulder. MAYBE.

nice menu plan. I'll be checking out your blog to find out more of your eating style. sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteHow do you make your sweet potato fries? That's something hubs wants to see on our menus!
ReplyDeleteI'm visiting from Menu Plan Monday.
ReplyDeleteI love your diet description: primalish/paleoish. That's exactly how we eat too. A year ago I found out I was allergic to wheat so I love to find new paleoish recipes... looking forward to reading more!
@Tara V - you won't regret it! It's an awesome way to eat!
ReplyDelete@Mary - I have yet to perfect sweet potato fries and make them different every time. Cut them small, toss with oil and a bit of cajun seasoning. Uggg...the baking though. Sometimes I try it on a high temp, sometimes low. I can't ever get them crunchy!
oh yeah - serve with sour cream! Yummy!
@Kristin - thanks for stopping by. I'm glad I'm not the only one who does an "ish" version!
the taco potatoes sound yummy.
ReplyDeleteLimit is a word I need to work into my vocabulary, especially as I find myself tackling two large projects this week that I should have considered more carefully.
ReplyDelete@Cam - we had them last night! They are good!
ReplyDelete@Samantha - Is your scrapbook one of them? I saw that and thought maybe I'd copy you in July LOL!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't seem to get the sweet potato fries right. I've tried various methods, too, and I'm never satisfied. Frankly, I've given up. So if you ever find that magic method, PLEASE let me know!
ReplyDeleteJana - will do! I plan to scream it from the mountain top if I ever do...kinda like my obnoxious hard boiled eggs post LOL.
