This Week on the Menu 9/28

Well, it’s another week of food, and, yet again, I am in the mood for comfort food. I think I’ll probably be back to my eccentric gourmet style next week. I’m sorry to those who have come here and found nothing to read. Things have been so busy recently, and I am trying to get back to posting! Well, here’s the menu.

Friday–Baked French Toast and Quick Caramelized Apples

Saturday–Franciscan night bbq, BYOM style–We’re bringing lemon garlic t-bone steaks and, since I am bringing the appetizer, a duet of savory and sweet popcorn

Sunday–Peppered Turkey Breast, Smoked Cheddar penne and cheese, grilled red bell peppers

Monday–Film and lit class means packaged–Eric gets okami california rolls and I get a teriyaki bowl

Tuesday–Grilled cheese and tomato soup, Apple Crisp with french vanilla ice cream

Wednesday–Albacore with Spinach, red bell peppers and lemon slices en papillote (We loved this last time I made it, so we’re having it again!)

Thursday–Herbed Chicken and Mashed Potatoes

Well, happy friday! Enjoy the weekend.

This Week on the Menu 9/20

Happy autumn! I was a little tired out by some of the foods I’ve been doing a lot lately, so this week is pretty much all comfort food for me. It’s blustery outside, and we have a busy week. We have guests and special dinners, so I’m not cooking as much as usual. Oh, well–it’s not a normal occurence. I want bold, earthy flavors with lots of warmth. As always, if you’d like me to post a recipe to any of these, please let me know! Enjoy the menu.

Friday–Out at Aqui’s
Saturday–Out at La Fondue
Sunday–Rigatoni with an Apple and Smoked Sausage Sauce
Monday–Individual Trader Joes meals (like a burrito or falafel plate or something)
Tuesday–Phyllo Triangles filled with Shrimp and Crab and some veggie (I’m not sure what yet)
Wednesday–Teriyaki chicken, rice, steamed broccoli
Thursday–Roasted herbed chicken, potatoes (red, white and purple) and carrots

This week is unusual, so I’m not planning on posting the total cost. It will probably be around $25. Sorry for my lack of fun posting today. Things should be back to normal next week.
