I am honestly the world’s worst when it comes to posting. I know I sound like a broken record, but this summer has been hectic. I have visitors coming later this month and a trip planned, but October should be pretty slow (good news for my blog)!
I hope everyone had a fantastic labor day weekend. I know I did. This week I FINALLY have a new menu. I also have this amazing dish to share with you. I was a bit worried about the mix o flavors with this one, but they ended up turning out exactly as I hoped. Even if you are not health conscious, this is a recipe I would recommend (not to toot my own horn or anything).
First things first, here is the new menu:
- Monday: Pinto bean veggie bowl
- Tuesday: Buffalo chicken southwest salad
- Wednesday: Spaghetti squash lasagna
- Thursday: BBQ baked chicken and green beans
- Friday: Whole wheat noodle & veggie soup
- Saturday: Hamburger veggie casserole
- Sunday: Homemade thin crust veggie pizza
You’ll notice I was on a veggie kick this week, but with the farmers markets coming to an end soon, I thought I would take complete advantage. 🙂 For those still doing 21 day Fix, this is 1 red, 1 green, and 1 blue container.
