Supper Sundays (20/52)

Week 19 has bled into Week 20, but we have an excuse wince we are focused on moving (down the hall) this week.  More on that, and the meal plan for Week 21, when we post again (hopefully Sunday)...

Everything listed below got made sometime during the past two weeks.  And, as I sit here right now, I honesty don't remember when.  So let's pretend we followed the schedule below and just review the meals as listed!


Meal Plan Week #19-Sandwiches Galore!
Breakfasts all week:  Fruit/cereal and/or strawberry creme' green monsters.  Not sure yet.
Sunday:  On my own
Monday:  Pepperoni Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwiches-recipe from our new Hungry Girl cookbook.
Sort of like making a calzone in your college apartment, but a nice alternative to a regular sandwich or even a regular grilled cheese.  The crushed tomatoes (although we thought them to be sort of weird/gross) really make it.

Tuesday:  Grilled Veggie Panini-recipe from our new Hungry Girl cookbook.
This one was very tasty.  The combination of the grilled veggies and the Laughing Cow was a good one.  And I doubled the LC when I grilled the leftovers veggies for a sandwich the next day at lunch, and that really made a difference.

So good one picture wouldn't do it justice.  Yes, this was an awesome dish--really great for an at-home Asian fix.  Very fresh.  Very tasty sauce on the noodles.  And I have never--never--seen A. devour a dish so quickly.  It was like watching myself in the mirror!!

Thursday:  Spicy Mexican Roast Beef Sandwich-recipe from our new Hungry Girl cookbook.
Surprisingly good, especially based on my initial reading of the recipe.  We spiced it up, of course; adding extra salsa to the roast beef, in addition to the salsa on the sandwich itself.

Friday:  Authentic Veggie Chicago-Style Deep Dish Pizza sent to us from Lesley.
Lou Malnati's shipped direct from Chicago to Mobile, AL.  Enough said!

Saturday: breakfast-S'more Muffins; dinner-Date Night
My first attempt at homemade muffins.  Well, we all have to start somewhere.  I think my downfall was attempting to double the recipe.  In doing so, I turned this muffins into scones... these puppies were DENSE.  But the flavor was pretty good, so I chalk it up as a win.

Pick of the week:
A:  Pepperoni Piza Grilled Cheese Sandwiches-I'm going with my inner child on this one.  Combining pizza and grilled cheese-Genius!
T:  Spicy Pasta Cucumber Salad-I'm assuming.  T feel free to comment and change your choice.
Since we spread this over two weeks, both should be considered winners.
