Menu
Okay so something other than 'fotos' (my blogging sister insists...) before I launched into photography...my other day job was in the field of dietetics - and until recently I analyzed menus for the Northern Arizona Senior Centers. I'm pretty psycho when it comes to menus and anyone who knows me, knows I like my entire month planned out...and really really like to only grocery shop once a month, however I haven't quite mastered that part (at least not in keeping within my budget :)...so blogging sister...here is this months menu, remember we have "big" cooking days and "little" cooking days...I try to keep it even..
  • machaca burritos/fiesta salad
  • steak/potatoes/peas
  • funky sandwiches (egg/tuna?) and cut-up fruit
  • stroganoff/corn?green beans?
  • creamy asparagus pesto chicken pasta salad/fruit
  • salmon/rice
  • bbq chicken pizza (friday night food!)
  • chicken nuggets? (must be date night)
  • maggiano's chicken rigatoni/salad
  • philly cheesesteaks
  • mediterranean pizza (friday night!)
  • dutch hutspot (sausages and smashed up veggies)
  • chinese chicken salad
  • meatloaf/potatoes/green beans
  • artichoke chicken/pasta
  • fry bread pizza (friday night!)
  • rosemary pork chops/rice/peas
You'll notice that it doesn't quite add up to every day cooking...(that's where I sneak in little cooking days or leftovers) I find that I need to leave space for switching and nights when Matt shows up late...that usually ends in cheese crisps for everyone!

I agree with your "blogging sister." It's good to post more than just photos. Anyway, this whole monthly menu is very inspiring. I am mastering a week at a time, but would really like to do a month. I have a friend who plans the entire month, even down to the side dishes, etc. She has it all on a big computer program that generates a shopping list for her too.

Cristin-put the shopping list generator link on here...or send it to me...I usually stick to easy sides (salad/canned veggies/fruit/rice/potatoes)
p.s. what would I do without my 2 commentors?

It's called Master Cook 7. She bought it at some store and put it on her computer and mine, but I'm not organized enough to use it. It's nice how it generates a shopping list from all your recipes though.
