I’m posting a little earlier today to give the easterners a chance to be in the top 100. I know it’s hard when I post late on Sunday night but I usually am only able to blog once the kids are in bed. Today my hubbie has taken the kids out to a picnic which is why I’m able to post a little earlier but I really won’t be able to do it on a regular basis. Sorry!
Recipe highlight:
My favorite recipe from last week was the Baked Chicken and Acorn Squash.
Talk about tasty and the squash didn’t even taste terrible. I usually don’t like the taste but the squash in this recipe is so well flavored it totally masks the squash flavor :) I only had chicken thighs on hand so I used all chicken thighs (which I like better) and no drumsticks. I would definitely serve this pretty dish to company as well accompanied with a side of rice or potatoes. The best part is that it is gluten, dairy and egg free so it was a recipe the entire family could eat. Look for it to be added to my Family Favorites Recipe Index soon.
So I hope everyone had a wonderful week. I’m delighted to see so many newbies join us. Welcome to all of you. I am loving the menu planning enthusiasm oh yes I am!
I received a terrific suggestion from Michelle of Life with Three last week and I’d like to run with the idea for next week’s Menu Plan Monday and I do hope you will all join in the fun. On Monday, September 22nd I will host a special Menu Plan Monday Family Favorites edition.
What I’m looking for is for each participant to include the recipe or recipe link of at least one (but more if you like!) of your family’s favorite meal(s). That’s it, easy right?! So start thinking about which recipe you’d like to include and be sure to grab the button above next week to let everyone know you are playing along.
So on to what we’ll be eating this week:
Monday: Fajitas
Tuesday: Sirloin Caesar Salad
Wednesday: Chicken Mozarella
Thursday: Leftovers
Friday: Homemade Pizza
Saturday: Beef Stew
Sunday: If you can find it you can eat it!
WHAT’S ON YOUR MENU?

This is my first time posting, though not my first time reading. Our menu is a bit boring this week. We are on our first full week of GF/CF dieting for our son’s special dietary needs. So it’s a whole new ball game now and I am trying to get used to playing it. =)
Not too exciting this week… well, maybe. Ike came through unexpectedly, so our menu has changed from home cooked meals, to energy bars and mcdonalds to whatever you can find in the pantry!
Thanks! This is my first time posting as well!!!
I am a meal plan junkie!
