Menu Plan Monday – April 9, 2012

April 9, 2012 by angelaskitchen 4 Comments

I hope you all had a great weekend!  This past weekend we celebrated a birthday…

…celebrated Easter…

…went to a movie (The Lorax), cleaned out a bit of the garden and planted seeds, and generally hung out as a family.  I love weekends when we are all snuggled up together!

Of course, my family being my family, this might be why it took 15 minutes to take a simple photo of my kids with their Easter baskets – LOL!

This week I am working on getting a couple things in the freezer for my family as I will be heading to Nourished and the Gluten & Allergen Free Expo next weekend.  I am so excited!  Who else is going?

This week Heather of the Celiac Family is our host for the Gluten Free Menu Swap.  She picked avocado as the theme this week.  Yum!  I love avocado on pretty much everything – BLT’s, salads, on eggs with some kimchi or salsa and just straight up scooped up with a spoon.  As we don’t eat dairy, avocados lend a creaminess (and tasty flavor) to dishes that normally have cheese or sore cream such as tacos, nachos, and any sort of wrap.  One of the most unusual ways that I like using avocado is in chocolate pudding (as inspired by Amy Green.  Her avocado chocolate frosting is AMAZING!)

Monday:  Mom works/track practice/Boy Scout meeting/Girl Scout dace practice

Glazed chicken breasts and rice (make extra for the weekend) with a salad

Tuesday:  Track practice/piano lessons

Pizza and salad (make extra pizza for the freezer)

Wednesday:  Mommy works/track practice/dance lessons/youth group

GF wrap sandwiches, salad and fruit (make an extra sandwich for road trip)

Thursday:  Diving to Chicago (lunch packed for the car ride)

Home:  dinner nachos

Friday:  Nourished

Home:  nitrate free hot dogs, seasoned sweet potato fries and salad

Saturday – Sunday:  Gluten & Allergen Free Expo

Home dinners:  Pizza and salad and hamburgers with salad and tots

    Looks like it was a delicious Easter at your house! I'm jealous that you're going to the Gluten & Allergen Free Expo next weekend. Have a great time!

I am so happy when someone tries one of my recipes. I do ask, though, that you link back to the recipe instead of posting it on your site unless you have made major changes. I have big plans for some of my recipes. Please remember, recipes are for personal use only. I do NOT give permission for any recipe, article, photo, etc. partially or in whole from angelaskitchen.com to be used for profit on another site, in published medium of any kind, or to be copied in part or whole. You MUST contact me for permission if you would like to use a recipe on a paid/membership website, in a restaurant, store, bakery, etc. for profit even with your adaption (this includes any “clubs”, membership sites, etc. that repackage other bloggers work for a fee, even if the original had been adapted or put into another form). THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING. 🙂
