Dinner this week!

[skidunks]

Give me ideas!

[SwimDeep]

I'm roasting a side of salmon tomorrow and planning to serve with mango salsa and green beans or snap peas. Leftover salmon will probably go into giant chef salads: gypsyplate.com/baked-salmon-with-mango-salsa/#baked-salmon-with-mango-salsa

Monday I'm going to make butter chicken. I think we'll have it over cauliflower rice one night and spaghetti squash another night: cafedelites.com/butter-chicken/

We have kale and stir fry veggies to supplement.

For in between, we still have some leftovers from last week we need to finish (pulled pork bbq/carnitas).

What I really need to figure out is what I want to eat tonight... because I am NOT cooking, and there is no room in the fridge for leftover takeout. (If I'm going to spend 1+ hour scrubbing the kitchen, it needs to stay scrubbed for at least 24 hours.)

Tonight: corn chowder with ham
Two nights: shepherds pie
One night - daughter cooks: beef burritos, black beans, yellow rice
One night: pasta and broccoli with olive oil and herbs, baked fish
One night - son cooks: whatever he decides to cook with stuff that's already in the house since he didn't plan the menu for his cooking night.
