I’ve never visited this thread before. We used to eat out or get take out 2 or 3 days a week before the pandemic. I retired last April, my husband this April. Now that I’m not working 12 hour shifts, I’ve been cooking at home a lot more. I go thru some spurts of having no idea what to make, so I’ll need to check here for ideas. We’re not adventurous eaters at all. My husband would eat beef everyday if I’d let him. I try to get chicken or pork in him at least once a week, lol.
So my first list..
Wednesday, My husband had beef kabobs, I had baked salmon with pesto & rice pilaf.
Thursday. I spent all day making a huge amount of stuffed cabbage rolls & meatballs. I make them for my 4 sisters, my brother & aunt & uncle. I try to make enough for a meal or 2 now & then freeze some for later. So we had the stuffed cabbage & mashed potatoes.
Today. I’m exhausted & sore from all that cooking yesterday, lol. So we are getting take out of subs & fries.
Saturday. Having the 2nd meal of cabbage rolls, maybe boiled potatoes.
Sunday. BBQ beef ribs, garlic sauced pasta & vegetables.
Monday. Tomato soup & grilled cheese
Tuesday. Grilled steaks, roasted squash. I have butternut, acorn & honey nut, not sure yet which 1 we’ll have.
Wednesday. Grilled chicken breast, cranberry sauce & another roasted squash.
Thursday. Hot dogs, baked beans. It’s my daughter’s birthday, they’re coming for cake from her favorite bakery.
We’re having a crazy warm, dry stretch, temps close to 80 for the next week. So planning lots of grilling while I still can.
