Another wintery week is ahead of us. This is the time of the year when I start dreaming of spring and summer. Which means I start craving foods that are associated with spring and summer like salads, fresh from the garden veggies, grilled burgers, etc. My menu definitely does NOT reflect these cravings this week though!
I am going to attempt to wait until the beginning of next week to go grocery shopping. This week's ad is very uninspiring and I am hoping maybe next week's will be better. Have you noticed grocery prices going through the roof where you live? I find myself struggling to find good fresh produce and meat at a half way decent price. I refuse to pay $5.00 lb for a beef roast!
Monday: Meatballs, Mashed Potatoes and Corn
Tuesday: Seafood Enchiladas
Wednesday: Tuna Noodle Casserole
Thursday: Chicken Pot Pie
Friday: Steak and Taters
Saturday: Mexican Pizza
Nothing super exciting since it is pretty much eating out of the pantry and freezer. BB will struggle with a couple of the days because she refuses to eat tuna noodle casserole and I doubt she will eat the seafood enchiladas (although sometimes she does). Thankfully she is old enough to find something for herself if she choses not to eat what I make!
Does anyone have any really good homemade marinades for steak? I have used Italian dressing and Ceasar dressing before.....but I could could use something new. The kids love those little packets of marinade that you can buy in the store-- like Hawaiian, and Bourbon something. They are definitely easy BUT I hate all the chemicals in them. So I would love some make your own marinades. Will you share some of your ideas with me?
