Tues: Salmon w/ crunchy broccoli and lemon butter

Wed: Chicken and Broccoli (DS's request and Wed is his favorite dayChat Icon Chat Icon )

Thurs: leftovers

Fri: Crispy Fried Shrimp w/ warm cole slaw or more probably frozen leftovers... Fri is laundry night.Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Sat: depending upon Fri, leftovers or shrimp.
