Menu Plan Monday 7/26/2010

Since I'm shopping a lot this weekend to try and keep up with the eating needs for a growing family of boys, I thought the above picture was an accurate description of what I will be doing.


Shopping, shopping, and MORE shopping.  


We have been fairly good at sticking to our menu plan this week and I did post a review on the Tex Mex Burgers with Cajun Mayo.  BTW...it was really good!  The recipe is listed in an earlier post but can also be found at foodonthetable.com.  Unfortunately, I have to copy and paste the actual recipe as the linking capability isn't working.  We only changed up what we were having on Wednesday because we went to MOE's for FREE queso and it sure was yummy.  So Thursday's meal from last week is rolling forward.


Thanks for stopping by my blog to find out what we're doing, and leave a comment, I would love to check out what you are eating this week and get new ideas.  Another great resource to find new ideas is at orgjunkie.com.  Laura keeps all of us menu plan mondayers on track.

COBB SALAD SANDWICHES
1/3 c. olive oil 
2 T. red wine vinegar 
1 t. Dijon mustard 
salt & pepper to taste 
1-2 chicken or turkey breasts, grilled and sliced 
4 strips bacon, cooked

Brush the focaccia with vinaigrette. Toss the lettuce with 3 T. vinaigrette to 
coat. 
Layer the cheese, avocado, tomatoes, meat, eggs, bacon, and lettuce on the 
bottom half of the focaccia. Drizzle with the desired amount of remaining
