Menu Plan Monday

Menu Planning Monday

Last week went pretty much according to plan, except that I didn’t make the new recipe for Honey Mustard pork chops that I wanted to try. I am going to move it to this week and give it a shot. On that night, I decided to make some Chinese food. So, we had a chicken stir fry with brown rice, some eggrolls, and I tried a new recipe for Egg Drop Soup. I liked the soup and will make it again, but with changes. I used low-sodium chicken broth (what I had on hand), and didn’t think to add salt. I will next time, and I will also use less cornstarch. I didn’t have green onions, but they would help, as would a dash of either rice wine vinegar or soy sauce. It was good though, and we both liked it, and it was very easy.

As always, thanks to Laura over at OrgJunkie for hosting this every week. Be sure to go over and check out all of the great menus.

    I need to put some kind of soup back into my menu because I’m missing it! And I need to try something new, think I’m stuck in a rut. I ate entirely too much this weekend with all you guys!

    I meant to make meatball subs last week and forgot! It will have to wait til next week now, since my shopping is done 🙁

    Taco salad is one of my all time favorite meals! I haven’t made that in awhile either. Such a good mixture of yummy stuff!

    Waving “HI”. The menu sounds wonderful. I haven’t been doing a menu lately and it’s killing my pocketbook. Monday I’ll be back on the list!
