Menu Plan Monday

Hmm, I seem to post this on Tuesdays. Should I call mine Tasty Tuesday?

Monday: Chicken sausage and cabbage stir-fry + extra meal (hot dogs in chili sauce for freezer)

Tuesday: Dinner out with my wonderful Dad (Alex’s late night at school)

Wednesday: Green salad with roast chicken pieces (roaster chicken from market)

Thursday: Sesame-flavored ground chicken in lettuce tacos

Friday: apple slices and peanut butter or honey, celery and onion dip

Holiday Note:

On Saturday I am making a gluten-free Italian rice pie for Easter. I’ll post the recipe soon in case anyone would like to try it. If I had to sum it up, I’d say that it is like a firm rice pudding in a pie shell. With citrus flavorings.

So, “if you like rice pudding, and you like orange zest, you’ll love this!”

Making sweet and savory pies with rice, wheat, or pasta is an Italian Easter tradition. I like to keep this tradition going, in honor of my father’s mother. How I wish I could have met her!
