What's for Dinner? November 24-26, 2013

We will be going out of town for Thanksgiving, so my menus for today through Tuesday are an attempt to work through the produce I bought because I forgot that it was going to be Thanksgiving week.  As I have said before, I am seasonally confused.  It does not feel like fall, but our walk on the beach today was lovely.  Now, on to the menu.

Sunday: Tri-tip roast with red wine sauce, braised red potatoes, baked butternut squash, spinach apple salad, sunday rolls, gingerbread cake with bananas and whipped cream.

Monday: Chicken with Sherry Mushroom Sauce (new recipe we will be trying), lemon asparagus risotto, grapes.

Tuesday:  Beef and Asparagus Stir-fry with mushrooms, brown rice and whatever fruit is in the house.

So, On facebook, I am part of a group called "What's for dinner?"  The idea is that every one posts what they are having for dinner in order to inspire each other.  This is great, except for one thing.  There is really no way to go back and see what a specific person posted in the past without scrolling through the whole dang thing!  Therefore, I have decided to post my dinner menu's here as well.  I know there are entire blogs dedicated to this kind of thing.  i just want a history of my own dinners in my own space.  Origninally I was just posting a dinner here and a dinner there, then I started posting my plan for the week.  These are the ones I found from the past. (I do not post on that group every week)

Novermber 4, 2013

the plan for the week of Nov 4-10:
Monday - Sole Meuniere, Braised Red Potatoes, fresh green beans
Tuesday - Teriyaki Chicken, Rice, Veggies
Wednesday - Frittata (ingredients yet to be determined), green salad
Thursday - Roast Pork with Honey-Cider Vinegar Sauce a l'Ancienne, lemon asparagus risotto, green salad (to welcome company)
Friday & Saturday - Not yet decided which is a bad plan since we will have company.
Sunday - I am thinking Boeuf Bourguignon, because I will be having the missionaries over and I need something that can be made ahead.  (Note:  I actually ended up making Arrezio Pasta with Artisan Bread and a salad, Lemon curd pie for dessert)

This thing is LONG!  so proceed with caution.
