my response What's For Dinner? 30-Minute Menus For 2010 - 16th Edition
This is the 16th edition of the weekly 30-minute menus for 2010. These are published on a weekly basis; I like to construct 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 - 16th Edition
Our weather here in Atlanta continues to be 'spring delicious'! Is Spring in your area yet? The menus this week are just fun to help bring some of the joy of being outside to the dinner table.
I am hosting a party on Saturday night; the Broiled Tilipia and Fettuccine with Green Peas will be the perfect menu for the 'do'. For the appetizer course I will serve Cheddar Cheese Balls and Summer Sausage with Roasted Garlic Mustard; Sliced Pears and Veg Tray with Spicy Tomato Salsa; Tortilla Chips and Savory Herb Crackers; Honey Roasted Almonds.
You will find that I use some cooking methods, mix and match, to get dinner on the table quickly! (The ingredients in parenthesis show some of my quick-prep steps.) You can all the time substitute your popular made-from-scratch recipes when you have more time.
I hope you have a great week!
