Menu of the Week #1
Meredith just started a Carnival of Menu Planning — so exciting! — round up is here — hopefully this will help all of us with planning our meals with a little less stress. So I’m taking a half-hour this evening to bloghop and see if I can incorporate some of the other gals’ meals into ours….
As usual, I’m embarrassingly late. Posting this this am instead of yesterday. I’ll try to do better next time.
This week’s a little different, as I’m not preparing food daily — hubby’s leaving for a bit soon, so I’m doing most of the cooking and baking today, packing and freezing stuff. This is so he doesn’t have to eat out (except for the occasional dinner out with colleagues) while he’s there. He’ll take his bento with him and pack himself a lunch daily, and he’s also got enough for dinner, and a bit for breakfast to give him a break from cold cereal. If he doesn’t get to eat the stuff for breakfast he can always have it as a snack after work or as dessert after dinner. We’re keeping the extras, so I don’t have to cook for the next few days.
Breakfast/Snack/Dessert Items:
1. Filipino champorado
2. Allergy-Free Brownies
3. Allergy-Free Blueberry Crumble
4. Cold cereal and Rice milk
5. Soy-Ube Pastillas
6. Carrot Sticks
7. Peaches and Pineapples (canned)
Beverages:
1. Green Tea Kombucha from Yogi Tea
Lunch/Dinner Items:
1. Allergy-Free Minestrone
2. Pot Roast with Green Beans
3. Kabayaki (Eel) and Cucumber Sushi
4. Cambodian Mee Souah
5. Crockpot Chicken
6. Eggplant something, still deciding
7. Hearts of Palm salad
8. Daikon and Carrot Salad
9. Broccoli something, still deciding
10. Roasted Salmon with Cherry Tomatoes
Other Items on the Menu this week (may or may not be allergy-free):
1. Yogurt Cake
2. Jello Playdough (not for eating!)
3. Thai Breakfast featuring tapioca and grass jelly
4. Refried Bean Burritos with Rice Cheese
5. Jackfruit Popsicles
6. Tinkyada Spaghetti with Tuna Arrabiata or some other spicy variation
Oh, and re the variety — we don’t always eat like this. It’s just that I have a bunch of stuff in the freezer and pantry that needs using up! I’ll be updating this post with links to the recipes…

Hey Stef! Your menu makes me think of that website My Lunch Can Beat Up Your Lunch (I think you were the one who introduced me to it). J/K!!! I know you love the husby and your just trying to keep him healthy. Hello to B! Lucky guy…
Stef, thanks so much for contributing to the Carnival, your meal plans look great!! The Roasted Salmon w/ Cherry Tomatoes sound great!! Think about submitting for next time too!
Ohhh your dishes sound so yummy! Eel sushi, Mee Souah, Eggplant anything and Heart of Palm salad! ANd let’s not forget the tuna pasta. I think I’ll make some of these next week.
I miss champorado. I think I can make it with risotto and put some chocolate in it.
I have a 13 year old son who had deficient growth hormones and we’ve decided not to put him on artifical hormones. The natural path suggested a diet lacking in wheat, oats, eggs, and dairy. But he’s a picky eater. Also, we keep kosher and cannot mix milk and meat. Please help.
Thank you.
