Menu Plan Monday – August 20, 2007

A few days ago we went to our local Farmer’s Market and stocked up on some delicious fruits and veggies. The raspberries and blueberries we purchased make to-die-for Berry Smoothies. I should share the recipe with everyone. We also got a few pounds of Donut Peaches. These are my new favorite fruit, they are simply heavenly. I probably could eat all of them in one sitting.

In case you have never heard of them (I hadn’t until last year), Donut Peaches are white flesh peaches that are incredibly sweet. There are two varieties, Jupiter and Saturn, and they are smaller and flatter than your typical peaches. I definitely prefer the Saturn ones, but both kinds are very tasty.

If you can find them in your area, I highly suggest you try them. You won’t be disappointed. I am not a huge fan of regular peaches, but these ones will make your mouth water.

Monday: Kidney Bean Tacos and fruit

Tuesday: Santa Fe Chicken Salad

Wednesday: Leftovers

Thursday: Meat and Pasta Bake, fruit and veggies

Friday: My husband and I are going on a date sans kids. I am not sure where we will eat yet, but we are planning to finally see “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.”

Saturday: Leftovers

Sunday: Curry Croissants, veggies and fruit – My younger sister, my older sister and her husband and their two kids are flying into town from California. They will be here for the week, hooray!
