FamMenu for This SPRINGYweek!

Here's What's New....Straight Off The Chef's Knife!

Yayayay it's ALMOST May!!! Woot woot! One month closer to Summer, I like it! I like it a lot!
Last week our menu went off without a hitch! The Baked Penne recipe I ended up using was the bombdiggity! I added some Italian chicken sausage, used fresh baby spinach, and added some fresh grated nutmeg, as well. Yum. (((Gotta love Pinterest!)))Here's the link to that recipe:

Here is what's planned for this week! 


SUNDAY: (yesterday, that is!) we had Nana Rose's Old World Italian Meatballs in homemade sauce with whole wheat spaghetti, rolls & fresh fruit.

MONDAY: I'm twisting things up by making last nights leftovers into spaghetti pie!!! I'll post the recipe once I master it!  Spinach salad with feta. Strawberries, walnuts & wild blueberry balsamic vinaigrette. Leftover rolls.

TUESDAY:Chicken Noodle Soup,Chicken Noodle Soup, Chicken Noodle Soup with some Cheddar garlic bread on the side!!! (Making a double batch- some for a friend & her Fam- as she is having surgery on her shoulder!!! It's always nice to share, and I think I'll whip up some cookies, too:))


WEDNESDAY: Chinese Chicken & vegetable stir fry- with broccoli, carrots, sugar snap peas & celery over jasmine rice. Orange wedges for dessert. 


THURSDAY: Ethiopian Wat- made with lamb, served over warm polenta with Parmesan cheese, Tzatziki sauce & apple chutney- and some homemade pita bread(classicaly ethiopian would be served with "Injera" a spongy sourdough flatbread) this is CERTAINLY a "melting pot" type meal!!! A little Ethiopean, Indian, Greek & Italian! 

Here is a great Wat recipe I've found:
