What's For Dinner? 30-Minute Menus For 2010 - 32nd Edition
This is the 32nd edition of the weekly 30-minute menus for 2010. These are published on a weekly basis; I like to build the weekly menus on Thursday or Friday, grocery shop on Saturday, and start the week's menus on Sunday.
What's For Dinner? 30-Minute Menus For 2010 - 32nd Edition
Still hot! hot! hot! here in Atlanta, so the menus this week are full of salads, pre-cooked or deli meats, and grilled foods! The menus are also easy on the allocation and time as you are getting ready for the new school year.
We love Eggplant Parmesan (Thursday) so much that we plant at least one eggplant bush in our orchad every year. This method is a great one and will have you out of the kitchen and enjoying your meal in no time at all.
You will find that I use several cooking methods, mix and match, to get supper on the table quickly! (The ingredients in parenthesis show some of my quick-prep steps.) You can always substitute your popular made-from-scratch recipes when you have more time.
I hope you have a great week!
