What's for Dinner This Week


Last week went pretty much according to plan, I just have one roll-over meal -- the Enchiladas Suizas, which is delicious by the way! The Brown and Wild Rice Chicken Salad is a brand-new recipe. If it turns out as good as it sounds, I'll post the recipe next week. Here's what we'll be serving:

Monday: Goat Cheese, Artichoke & Chicken Pizza (recipe follows), cheese pizza (for kids) , salad, fruit
Tuesday: Honey Mustard Grilled Chicken (hat tip to mom_of2boys), corn, green beans
Wednesday: Chicken Parm Meatball Subs, oven fries, peas
Thursday: Brown and Wild Rice Chicken Salad
Friday: Ravioli with Sausage, salad, fruit
Saturday: Leftovers
Sunday: Enchiladas Suizas with Turkey (I use chicken), green beans
