Menu Plan Monday: August 4th


Gluten Free Mommy is the generous hostess and, of course, the originator, of this weeks’ Menu Plan Monday. It’s a mint flavored week!  Not only do I have “normal” mint in the line up,  but I can’t see going through a week without other kinds of mint, like thyme, rosemary, oregano, etc.

Also, if you haven’t already, please consider joining the fun and participating in this months’ Adopt a GF Blogger, which is now through Aug 11th.

Monday:

Grillin’ Rosemary Salmon with grilled marinated peppers

Tuesday:
Quick and easy:
Baked turkey cutlets in a tomato basil sauce with roasted asparagus

Weds:
More grillin’
Grilled mint-stevia chicken with roasted corn (for DH) and broccoli for me (I will post this recipe if anyone is interested)

Thursday:
Vegan:
Southwestern Quinoa and black bean salad, featuring my very own tomatoes

Friday:

Leftovers =)

Saturday:

East Indian
Beef and coconut curry with Spicy Cauliflower soup (my adoption of Diet, Dessert and Dogs) and maybe even papadams, if I get some energy!

Garden harvest:

From my garden:
Ground cherries
green peppers
garlic
Chocolate mint!
tomatoes
basil
rosemary
stevia

From the Farmer’s Market:
Peaches
Apricots
Cabbage

Red peppers

Dessertof the week:
some variant on chocolate cherry pudding, and possibly something else. I have been a baking fool lately, but most of my endeavors have fallen a little flat (no pun intended)

About Cheryl Harris

Life played a funny trick on me. I've been a nutritionist for years, and much to my surprise, found out that I could manage many of my health issues via diet. So I've been GF for years, and I've got a bunch of allergies and sensitivities. But it definitely doesn't keep me from cooking, baking and enjoying my food.
