I just sat down to make a menu and grocery list. I have been quite lazy/strapped for time lately and I haven't been efficient with our grocery shopping. That ends TODAY.
Here is my menu for the next week:
Thursday: VT conference at the church, good dinner served there for the women. Sorry boys, you get grilled cheese for dinner.
Friday: Veggie egg rolls and watermelon. Second time working on this egg roll recipe. Hoping to get it right this time and be able to post it.
Saturday: Julia's massaman curry. First time making this, wish me luck.
Sunday: Sauteed gnocchi with basil-scented cream sauce and steamed broccoli. Hopefully a chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting for dessert.
Monday: Baked garlic Parmesan chicken wings, baked potato wedges and romaine salad.
Tuesday: Go-to spaghetti and tomato sauce and sauteed kale.
Wednesday: Latch. This is an old Peterson family dinner. Latch onto whatever you can find in the fridge or pantry. So most likely, leftovers.
First of all me, then husband, son one, son two and brand new daughter one. Happily loving aforementioned husband, raising our babies and spending way too much time in the kitchen.

Yah, seriously. You know what I make for dinner? Grilled chicken with a salad every night, except when we have it with rice. Other than that, it's hamburgers or tacos or cold cereal and popcorn. Yikes.
Love the name Violet. I just scrolled down and saw your baby. Must have missed that post. Anyway, she's adorable! Almost as cute as my 4 month old son.
Ummmm.... so I am gonna need that gnocchi with cream sauce recipe ;) We love gnocchi, but I feel like I always make it the same way - marinara style. Also, I've been wanting to incorporate kale into meals but I'm stumped. What are your tips?
I've been making a menu for the week on Sunday's and it alleviates so much stress. I'm totally a fan. Your menu sounds fantastic by the way!
Latch!
That's genius.
Now, what we eat for dinner 5 out of 7 has a name!
;)
Your Monday menu looks like something the Thomas' would love, I may just give it a go if the recipe is in your index?
sounds delicious! and i like the "latch." at my house, growing up, we called that "fend for yourself."
@morgan - the baked potato wedges are in the index, but the wings aren't. If the recipe is a success, I will post it.
@Heather - the gnocchi is another recipe I am working on. A friend e-mailed me and asked for something new to do with gnocchi. So sauteed gnocchi with basil-scented cream sauce is what I am going to do. If I can make it work, I will post it.
