menu plan monday - Now with a GIVEAWAY!!

Before we commence with the menu for next week, I'm going to ask you all to enter my very first giveaway right **HERE** to win a box of Progresso Lemon Pepper Panko and a very swanky cookbook by Chef Michael Chiarello.

 Okay, I won't keep you in suspense any longer.  Here's what's on the menu this week.....

Sunday - Hungarian Beef Stew - this is a new recipe for me.  It's a standard beef stew, but with lot of paprika added to make it a bit more exotic!!

Tuesday - Honey-Sesame Pork Tenderloin with Spicy Scallion Salad - After roasting a whole turkey breast last week this got bumped from the schedule, so it's making a reappearance here.

Thursday - Almost Hands-Free Spinach Risotto with Chicken, Leeks, and Garlic - A few weeks ago I made the Almost Hands-Free Spinach Risotto with Chicken and Herbs.  It was a huge hit!  I'm stretching the bounds a little, hopefully this one will go well enough that I can work up the courage to try the Almost Hands-Free Lemon Risotto with Chicken, Fennel, and Green Olives.  That's right!!  I'm a wild woman.....Don't mess with me!

Saturday - Chicken Nuggets - this was also on the menu for last week, but my hubby had to work on Saturday.  When Daddy works on Saturday Mommy buys pizza.  That's how we roll around here.
