Nov 2 menu

  Sorry I missed a week or two.  I was having issues accessing the site. As a side note, I didn't actually plan this week, but it is what we ate.

Cranberry bread - we adopted a large bag of cranberries, and this was a good way to use some.

Dinner
Sun:
Veggie Thai Red Curry with Jasmine Rice - Better than I thought it would be. The sauce is thin and soupy. I would maybe decrease the amount if I made again.
Cranberry orange relish - B just really wanted this because we had a lot of cranberries. He didn't use a recipe.

Mon:
Chicken Enchiladas - I've had better enchiladas. I found them to be very dry.
Jicama
Pomegranate

Tues:
Grilled Cheese This grilled cheese was pretty good.
Tomato soup

Wed:
Homemade spaghetti O's - Kind of fun and super easy. Flavor was fair, but very bland. I actually think real Spaghetti O's have more flavor. I'm not sure why, or what's missing from this one.
Salad

Thurs:
Loaded baked potato bar

Fri:
Pizza

Sat:
Veggie stir-fry - This recipe is for Mongolian beef. B want it, but beef is sparse and expensive right now. We used this sauce with veggies (peppers, onion, broccoli, carrots, pea pods).
Brown rice

Wed:

Curried vegetable pot pie - I like this but make some adjustments. I decrease butter to 1 TBS. Add the flour with the milk and keep wishing until lumps are gone.  I also add a little ground ginger.
