Monday's Easy Meal Plan

    I posted my Easy Menu plan last week and instead of doing recipes for the whole week, I will just post each day's recipe separate.
    Monday's meal plan is one of my favorite meals. Lunch and Dinner, which is why I picked it. ; )

Monday:
Lunch- Cows in a Blanket, Home Fries, Carrot Sticks, Pickles.
Dinner- Flat Tacos, Beans, Mexican Rice.

LUNCH-
We call them cows in a blanket instead of pigs in a blanket because we don't eat pork at all. We found out what pigs do and we were completely GROSSED out. So we eat beef dogs.
Cows in a Blanket:
    2 packages of 10 Beef Dogs
Breading:
    1 package of yeast
    1 cup warm water
    2 1/2 cups wheat flour
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 teaspoon sea salt
    1 teaspoon organic sugar
Dissolve yeast in warm water. Stir in remaining ingredients. Beat vigoriously. Let set 5min.

Take the dough and make 20 medium size balls. Roll out into small squares and place beef dogs on dough. Wrap dogs in dough. Bake at 400degrees for 15min or until brown.

Home Fries:
    14 Potatoes
Cut into cubes and fry in organic shortening til golden brown. Season with salt and red pepper.

Carrot Sticks
Pickles.

DINNER-
Flat Tacos:
    Corn Tortillas
Bake in oven on 400 til brown.
Top with below:
    Onion
    Tomato
    Cheese
    Sour Cream
    Lettuce
    Meat
    Beans
    Ranch Dressing ( I like this on my flat taco)

Pinto Beans:
    2 cup pinto beans
    5 c upwater
    1 clove garlic, chopped
    1 small onion, chopped
    cumin, if desired
    sea salt, to taste

Mix all ingredients into boiling pot. Cook until beans are tender.
Add more water if you want more juice.
If you want to serve this in place of a meat dish, it is good with potato chunks in it, topped with cheese.

Mexican Rice:
    2 cup brown rice
    3 1/2 cup water
    1/2 cup tomato paste

Brown rice in iron skillet. Mix water and tomato paste.
Stir rice to outsides of pan and slowly pour tomato mixture into center of pan, stirring.
Bring rice to boil. Simmer on low until water is gone, about 20m.
Fluff with fork and serve with your favorite mexican dish.

    So there is one of my favorite meal plan. We actually just had flat tacos last nite. YUM!!

As Always,

!!!!
