Weekly Menu (October 1/2007)

I spent Thursday carefully flipping through How To Cook Everything by Mark Bittman; and so most of these recipes come from his book (HTCE). Page numbers are cited. This menu may seem a bit more involved; in truth it should take me about the same amount of time to prep the meals as most of my meals have always been a main dish + salad or steamed veggies.
SaturdayRotisserie Chicken (take out) and strawberry rhubarb pie.
SundayMixed summer greens + goat cheese salad with spiced nuts(*) HTCE 96
Linguine with fresh tomato & Parmesan cheese HTCE 131
MondayCommensal soup (lentil curry) & whole wheat baguette.
Tuesday
Corn and bean pancakes with maranara sauce, steamed green beans
(leftovers)
Wednesday
Chicken parmigiana and mixed salad with spicy nuts (*) HTCE 38
ThursdayStir-fried soba noodles with leftover chicken HTCE 171
FridayEnchiladas and green salad (5 for dinner)

* HTCE p 17
Monday's soup is store-bought, fresh from the deli section. It's got a pretty limited shelf life and is lower sodium than most tinned soups.
I know Tuesday's meal sounds fancy, but really it's leftovers. The bean & corn pancakes and the marinara sauce was made (and frozen) some time ago.
