Menu Planner: May 6 to May 12, 2008
Menu for the week is subject to change but so far….
Tuesday — Turnip and leek soup with toasted breadcrumbs and sage, leftover pasta
Wednesday — Fusilli with asparagus and ham
Thursday — Caldo verde (this version will have the addition of beans)
Friday — Leftovers
Saturday — Roast chicken, sides TBD
Sunday — Leftovers
Monday — TBD (probably leftovers but reimagined in some fashion)
Am thinking I’ll probably stew some dandelion greens and leftover turnip greens over the weekend. There’s a nice hunk of smoked bacon in the fridge calling my name.
More later.
the spring weed thing is really great

After four months of potatoes and root vegetables I think it’s time for a change, don’t you?

I’m amazed you plan so far in advance. I’m jealous.

Joe–
I never go to the market with an agenda. I just see what looks good and then plan accordingly.
The thing with weekly menus is that they often morph into something unexpected. I haven’t gotten around to cooking the chicken yet and with GBNYC5 in a few days, that’s probably gonna have to wait until next week.
I’m thinking at this point either roast chicken or turn things into stock. We’ll see.
Cooking for one presents a special challenge all of its own.
