Short Week's Menu

I have to write this menu down or else I'll forget! Even though it's a short week I HAVE to stick to the menu. This past weekend, we had fried cheese curds at every meal. This is not a joke. Every. Meal. We also went to a farm in what is now being called Amelia's Worst Day Ever. It turned out alright because she's such a trooper.

So...Menu...

Monday: Got in late so ordered in salads. Yes. Salads. They were awesome.
Tuesday: Carne Molida with ground turkey + black beans + rice
Wednesday: White Fish Special with rice and roasted broccoli
Thursday: Honey Dijon Pork with brussel sprouts
Friday: Leftovers or out.
Saturday: Brisket with corn tortillas

Wknd review + weekly menu

Whhaaaaaat a weekend I just had! It was so amazing to get some QT with the Mirshak fam and to nuzzle lil AMELIAAAAAA.... obsessed with her. Chicago was far cooler than I had imagined and I really, really love it there!!! It's like NYC but you can actually drive around and park the car. Seriously- what an awesome city. Michelle, you have a great setup there, and I can't wait to come back when the guest room is ready :)
Anyway, it was a super indulgent weekend. I never really have desserts but when I do, I just crave them more and more after. So I'm scaling back this week on sugar and carbs and such. This week's menu:

Mon: Ratatouille and grilled whole grain bread
Tues: Sushi for a girlfriend's bday
Weds: Grilled whole fish and sauteed rainbow swiss chard, OR spicy orange stir fry w/ brown rice
Thurs: I just can't stop myself... poblano and mushroom tacos
Fri: Out! Tyler moved here and Taylor's in town for another wknd, so we'll all go out somewhere
