Re: Weekly Menu - 2/20
Sunday - MIL
Monday - Beach Picnic! Heroes, Chips, Fruit and Pickles on a blanket in front of the fire with lemonade, iced tea and S'mores for dessert!
Tuesday: Spaghetti and Meatballs, Garlic Bread, Salad
Wednesday: Beef Stew with Biscuits and String Bean Salad.
Thursday: Herb Grilled Chicken, Mac & Cheese, Steamed Broccoli
Friday: Mussels in White Wine Sauce, Linguine and Salad
Saturday: Stuffed Peppers, cucumber salad.
MIL Cancelled. So We are doing Spaghetti, Meatballs - and making a beef bracciole today with garlic bread and salad. Leftovers for Tuesday.
ETA: The bracciole came out FANTASTIC. Here's my recipe in case anyone is interested:
First I chopped some salt pork into small pieces and fried it until it was golden brown and crispy and drained on paper towels. Then I used a thin sliced piece of round and pounded it to about 1/4 inch. Then I minced 5 garlic cloves and pressed them into the meat. I topped the garlic with canned bread crumbs, fresh grated reggiano parmesan, I crushed the salt pork in the mini prep and sprinkled that on there and then added a handful of fresh chopped parsley and a few leaves of chopped basil. I rolled up as tightly as possible and tied it in 3 places with a surgeon's knot using kitchen twine. I put the pan that I'd used for the salt pork (drippings still in it) to a high heat and browned the meat all over. Then I dropped it right in the sauce. The sauce had only just really started (I hadn't even made the meatballs yet). So it probably simmered in the sauce for a good 2 hours or more. It was really delicious! Not even REMOTELY healthy.. but delicious!
I took pics of dinner and put them in a food album which I may or may not update periodically, if you want to see some pics of the process.
