On the menu

When my first trimester yuck kicked in this past July, I completely fell off the menu planning and cooking wagon. Now that I'm friends with food again I'm ready to properly feed my family! Here's my menu for this week. Hope it helps make your week a bit easier.

Monday: Farfalle with tomatoes and basil (Recipe HERE.)
I am obsessed with this meal. We make it constantly (especially with homegrown tomatoes on), always adding some zucc or eggplant from the garden. The way to really kick it up a notch is to serve it with a large dollop of fresh pesto. (I love Ina Garten's recipe.)

Tuesday: Fresh zucchini soup (Recipe HERE.)
I don't know about you, but I still have zuccs coming out my ears. Here's a great way to use the ones that got a little too big. Great with a sandwich for a quick and easy dinner.

Wednesday: Spinach pomegranate salad with apples and walnuts (Recipe from Pinch My Salt HERE.)
I love this food blog and this salad looks divine. I think it would be great served with a chicken breast.

Thursday: Creamy Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas (Recipe from My Kitchen Cafe HERE.)
I've been wanting an enchilada recipe that delivers the creamy comfort minus the cream of chicken soup (i.e. minus all the sodium, preservatives, etc). I can't wait to try this one Melanie worked up!

Friday: Homemade pizza (My favorite dough recipe HERE.)
And add an oreo milkshake for an extra fun Friday family night!
