What’s for dinner…

April 12, 2010

So I said I would post this weeks menu for all. I am doing this mostly for accountability. I figure, if I know people are going to read this and hold me to the “asthma nutrition plan”, then I will be more likely to follow through. Also know that I have a lot of flexibility with my time and I am making sacrifices elsewhere until I get the hang of this. For example, the laundry situation in my house right now is out of control. I am going to use what I have left of the “bad” foods, but once they are gone, I will not replenish them. I will put an * next to those items on this weeks menu.

Meal #1 -
Bell Peppers stuffed with brown rice, feta, and a tomato/Italian sng sautee
Large Organic Salad with Italian dressing
Homemade wheat dinner rolls

Meal #2 –
Parmesan crusted chicken
Spinach/Strawberry Salad with homemade poppy seed vinagrette dressing
Homemade wheat dinner rolls

Meal #3 –
Homemade Veggie Burgers with wheat hamburger buns
Sweet Potato Fries

Meal #4 –
Veggie subs (Provolone, shredded lettuce, tomato, avocado, mayo, cucumbers) on wheat bun
Fruit salad

Meal #5 –
* Lasagna – this is normally not a meal I should eat, but I have a frozen one in the freezer

Meal #6 –
Homemade Chicken noodle soup (homemade egg noodles, veggies, chicken in broth)
Homemade wheat dinner rolls

Also, I don’t make fresh dinner rolls every day. I make a ton of dough all at once and freeze it after the first rise in small balls. Then, I thaw them out and bake. Same goes for hamburger buns and pretty much any other dish I make that is freezable.
