Tues: caribbean marinated shrimp and scallops, salad

Wed: chicken with black bean salsa, salad

I have a question...what are potstickers? I have seen them in your menu's before as well as Csara's I think....

They are wontons, which are kind of like very thin sheets of pasta, filled with ground meat and veggies. I buy them frozen, and all I have to do is put them in a pan with some water to defrost them, and them let them brown. A lot of people like them as appitizers, but I like to serve them as a side dish. My 4 year old ate like 5 of them tonight!!
They are super yummy!

Yesterday I had codfish with potatoes for lunch and watermelon for dinner... lunch was too heavy so I wasn't hungry.

And today I'm having beans with pork meat and I don't know what else

And tomorrow I'm going to Germany for 10 days...

I really like planning for a full 7 days - I only went to the grocery store ONCE last week, which was fantastic! Here is the plan starting tomorrow:

Tues: tequilla lime shrimp over black bean and corn salad

wed: chicken cordon bleu, zucchini and yellow squash sautee

thurs: bruchetta chicken bake, tossed salad

fri: bbq pork sandwiches, baked beans

sat: korean style beef, asian slaw, potstickers

sun: grilled chicken, stuffed portabello mushrooms, beefsteak tomato salad

mon: spicy fish, italian mixed salad

I usually make a little extra something for the girls to share (grilled cheese, wheat toast w/cream cheese, etc) but we are encouraging them to eat whatever it is that we are eating. We have found that Ella LOVES spicy food and Nicole will eat fish!

Fri: pulled pork sandwiches, baked beans, potato salad

Sat: burgers, tomato and corn salad

Sun: pork tenderloin, mashed sweet potatoes, asparagus with browned butter

Mon: asian pork and broccoli stir fry, Thai eggrolls
