I know it's only Saturday and I'm letting you in on the plan for dinner for the week. Here goes, of course there is always the chance that it will change if I feel like something different!
I'm supposed to bring dessert, so since it will be our one dessert for the week I want to make something really good. I've been thinking about red velvet cake. Now I used to think it was weird, but then I watched Bobby Flay on 'throwdown' against a chic that made these REALLY good looking red velvet cupcakes and my friend made one in December and I didn't get to try it and was pretty sad about it I think what I really want is the cream cheese frosting, how can you really go wrong with that? The other option is a flourless chocolate cake. I'll let you know how either turn out!
Sunday: Chili & Cornbread
Since it's SUPER BOWL, I thought I would at least make an effort to support the game and have some 'game day food' maybe I'll make some 7-layer dip or at least guacamole and chips I don't have any chips, maybe I could bake some corn tortillas and turn them into chips.....hmmm that sounds pretty good, I'll have to work on that.
Monday: Whole Wheat Ravioli w/tomatoes and basil & salad
This is one of Cliff's very favorite meals, he even likes it since I've 'lightened' it. It is really good, so it will probably appear on our menu at least twice a month.
Tuesday: Chicken Fajitas
I have a ton of red peppers, so this is a good meal to use them up!
Wednesday: Dinner with friends

I'll probably use my wonderful new grill pan with a little lemon, maybe some thyme or rosemary for the fish. I'm trying to have fish once a week...obviously I failed last week.
Friday: Chicken/Broccoli/Califlower Casserole
This is going to be an experiment, does that sound gross to throw califlower in there too?
Saturday: This Crust Pizza
I'm not sure what my plan is for this, I want to find a homemade crust recipe that is thin crust...we'll see how it goes.
