Sunday, June 1, 2008 - Menu Plan Monday ~ June 2

Posted in Menu Planning


Last week we ran out of pumpkin.  It was a homegrown pumpkin and we were guessing how many meals we got out of it.  So we didn't get to eat the curry or the lasagne.  However, we did get to have a very nice Warm Cottage Salad.  I love collecting recipes for things that have pork sausages in them.  Also I collect recipes for chorizos, pork mince, things I can get easily at the supermarket. 

The Gado Gado was beautiful.  Hubby went to a lot of trouble and set it out beautifully on the plate.  I even enjoyed the satay sauce (Ayam brand).  We swore we were never going to eat satay sauce again after our satay pizza, homemade sauce, that we made in 2003.  It was from the peanut butter jar I think, the failed recipe.  The Gado Gado was a meal of vegetables with eggs and sprouts and wombuk or Chinese cabbage.

Another new recipe we tried was Mexican Burrito Bake .  The recipe included refried beans which turned out almost like meat.  I really enjoyed it.  We were able to use up some of the corn cobs in the freezer.  We didn't use pepitas, thought we had them, but it was lovely without them.  It is a pumpkin dish. 

The rissoles were beautiful too, I loved smelling the fresh parsley.  Hubby enjoyed the Asian dishes he made. 

This weeks meals:

Monday ~ Egg & Nori Rolls
Tuesday ~ Vegetable & Crab Linguine
Wednesday ~ Baked Beans with Cheese Cornbread
Thursday ~ Pork Chow Mein
Friday ~ Lentil & Bacon Soup
Saturday ~ Cabbage with Split Peas
Sunday ~ Tomato & Cannellini Bean Soup

What a lovely menu. Thanks for the feedback on last week's dishes, I'm tempted to try a couple of them and have noted the recipes.
