On the menu at Casa Shoshi this week:

:smile: Carne Guisada (Latin Beef Stew, recipe from skinnytaste.com)
:smile: Crock Pot Santa Fe Chicken (skinnytaste.com) Burritos
:smile: Garlic-Crusted Sirloin Tip Roast with Mushroom Gravy (Canadian Living website) and roasted cauliflower - maybe this one will be for Valentine's :heart:
:smile: Spaghetti with Meat Sauce (a Shoshi kitchen specialty)
:smile: Meatloaf (from soscuisine.com) with Tomato Gravy (recipe courtesy of awesome MFP friend Marekdds) and mashed cauliflower
:smile: Beef Smokies on Homemade Multi-grain bread with Apple-Fennel Slaw
:smile: Fish with Sweet Potato Fries and Cole Slaw

Aside from that, there will probably be a leftover night, and a pizza night. :tongue:

Breakfast is always the same for me (check my diary), and for lunches, I am mining the freezer for frozen soups that are hidden away in there. :bigsmile:

What are you planning to eat this week?

    I think I'll make a pot of chili, fry up some turkey burgers, and maybe a pot of minestrone. Lots of fruits and veg to round things out. Not sure what else. Maybe some black beans and brown rice.

    YAY!

    Monday: Garlicky Kale and White Beans
    Tuesday: Chicken and Green Beans (boring)
    Wed-Friday: Zucchini Lasagna.

    I'm minimizing the gluten in my diet, so I'm going to make a lasagna with zucchini instead of pasta. With ground turkey. Should be good, but it should be at least three servings so I won't have to cook the rest of the week. Yes!

    Breakfast is a homemade protein shake with dark chocolate almond milk and peanut butter. Lunches will be a salad with a homemade sesame and tamari dressing, along with turkey and cheese roll-ups and strawberries. I eat the same thing for lunch everyday. Makes it easier.

    Gosh, food is awesome.

    I don't usually plan my dinners. They're more often just a few small "snack things"...banana, avocado, mini pita pizzas, can of tuna etc. But I always prep my lunches for the week on Sunday so this week's lunches are:

    Steamed carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower with a small "salad" of green apple, yellow pepper, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber. And a hard-boiled egg.

    I eat the same thing for lunch every day for a week usually. Just easier that way.

    My breakfasts are usually cottage cheese and coffee, or sometimes a couple mini pita's with laughing cow cheese.
