Okay, so my produce box got delayed til today, so I waited to plan (b/c I had no idea what's in it). I'm still in "preserve the proteins" mode b/c getting the frozen ones is a pain...but everything else is flowing here, so here's the plan...(I'm making an Italian citrus olive oil cake this week at some point, too, when the regular cooking is light)...
Sat - Hot Dogs, Baked Fries, Spaghetti Squash with Olive Oil/S&P, Clementines and Bananas
Sun - Bacon Mushroom Bell Pepper and Tomato Pasta http://www.happyandharried.com/2016/07/26/bacon-mushroom-peppers-tomato-pasta/ (something like this, but I'm making dairy free so I'll use nutritional yeast for parm...and I'm adding onions and herbs), Strawberries and Blackberries
Mon - The 1st duck - Crockpot Duck, Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Blood Oranges and Regular Orange Slices, Crescent Rolls
Tues - Duck Part 2 - Indian "Butter Chicken" Duck and Veg (Bell Peppers, Carrots, Celery, Onion, Chick Pea), Naan, Sliced Pears
Wed - Duck Part 3 - Crockpot Duck and Veg Stew - Mushrooms, Onions, Peppers, Carrots, Celery, Rutabegas, Leftover Duck Jus, and Orange Sauce - Rice, Sliced Apples
Thurs - Garlic Glaze Pork Tenderloin, Mashed Potatoes, Roasted Green Beans with Mushrooms and Onions, Bananas and Sliced Citrus Fruit
Fri - Vegetarian Spring Rolls (from freezer) Citrus Glazed Roasted Beets, Homemade Fruit Muffins, Fruit Smoothies
Sat - TBD - Might do a Chick-fil-a Nugget and Fry takeout (one kid asked for this) or a Cheesecake Factory pick up (b/c I have gift cards) - if I decide on CF, I'll probably do it Tuesday, and move the meals down, kicking Thursday's meal here...gotta figure out if I can pick up something dairy free that I can reheat from CF (b/c I'll just have leftovers from here and fries from Chick-fil-a, while I throw the nuggets and fries in the oven for 5)...not as easy a plan with cheesecake factory, then again, I don't want $50 in gift cards getting wasted...
Sliding duck down to Tuesday so it's fully defrosted, so gonna make a ham and bacon potato and veg soup today with tropical bread (pineapple, banana, and coconut)...now, I'll only need 2 meals from the duck, so I'll let the kids go nuts...
