June 2011 Weekly Dinner Menus

Speck333 · 05-29-2011, 02:12 PM

Hard to believe I've been doing these threads for a year!

Each week I pick out 6 things to make for dinner (one night is what we call FFY, or fend for yourself, night). This weekly menu becomes the base for the shopping list. Shopping is usually on Sundays, so Monday starts my "menu week".
I start these menu threads every week and month so I have a record of what I fixed and to share to help others perform this sometimes tedious task. Whenever possible, I link to the recipes I use if they are posted online. A lot of the time, the recipes I use are not low carb on their own, so let it be known that any recipe I use is adapted to the LC and SF style.
Please share your weekly menus here, too, and ask for recipes.

Not many people post, but it makes me happy to see 3 and 4 thousand hits on the threads every month, so I know we are helping inspire people. I used to dread, absolutely dread, doing the menu planning each week. The last year has been painless and fun. I actually look forward to making it so I can post it here.

Happy Memorial Weekend!

Just wanted to update something for my menu, instead of tilapia tonight I am actually testing out a recipe for Eggplant Parmesan , since the hubby has school tonight and he's apprehensive about trying the eggplant, so if it's good, I am sticking it in his lunch box for work tomorrow...shhhh...lol.

Speck333 · 06-01-2011, 01:34 PM

our first go-round with Atkins, I made a similar recipe quite often. DH was also skeptical at first, but really liked it. I haven't made it in ages (burned out on it way back when). But I think I will try it again. Maybe next week...

Its me - WENDALINA · 06-02-2011, 11:31 AM

hey girls!

I just got a boat load of the canned chicken and I am looking for some interesting recipes besides the variations on chicken salad or the buffalo dip... can anyone come up with a casserole or easy meal out of these?

LisaG · 06-02-2011, 11:37 AM

What if you did some sort of stuffed mushrooms or stuffed peppers? Depending on your carb allowance you could use cheese and herbs.
You could do Mexican w/o tortillas- maybe some type of fajita dish or soup?

I also found a thread about this topic and the coconut crusted chicken patties look awesome!

Canned chicken ideas?

I used to use it for anything that called for shredded chicken... mostly casseroles or enchiladas. Season it up for chicken taco salad. Stuff like that. Sorry, can't be more specific

kare30bear · 06-02-2011, 12:53 PM

Enchiladas do sound good...if you r able to use the low carb tortillas or have ingredients to make the crepes. ( I can't wait to try them after moving into the next phase) I would use it in a taco (made from cheese) and add some spicy jalapeno sauce, lettuce and other toppings. (You can also make a faux taco bowl using the same technique with the cheese)

Its me - WENDALINA · 06-02-2011, 01:24 PM

I think I am going to find some coconut and try those patties... those sound amazing!!! I have some pineapple davinci's and maybe some cauli rice???? that will be dinner tomorrow night I think! Thanks!

Speck333 · 06-05-2011, 11:24 AM

MON: Glazed chicken kabobs
TUE: Antipasto salad
WED: Cilantro-lime salmon
THU: FFY
FRI: Eggplant parmesan
SAT: Pesto pork chops
SUN: Grilled beef roast

Sides will just be green salad, raw veg with ranch and dill dips, canned green beans.

LisaG · 06-05-2011, 11:32 AM

OK, I failed big time so far today as far as planning! I mean, by now I have my menu and shopping done! What in the world?

Well, we do have some things thawing for the grill- so far it's:

Sun.- tuna salad and other leftovers

Mon.- steak kabobs (with onions and bell peppers)
Tues.- chicken thighs
Wed.-Fri.- ???
I will be stealing some of all of your ideas, ha ha!

Have a wonderful, on-plan week!

Tell us if/how they worked out b/c that can be a mid-week meal here too!!!

And I just realized many of you have been talking about lasagna made with zucchini in the crockpot...guess what will be end of the week dinner here?

Man, I know, there are some seriously gourmet menus here! Yikes!

It's funny, too, some of the items on Amber's menu... if I didn't watch so much British TV and cooking shows in general, I'd be lost.

Although, I haven't got a clue what "rocket" is? lol

LisaG · 06-06-2011, 10:41 AM

Amber, I didn't want to say so, but I also didn't know what some of your menu items were! Looking some of those up! They all sound luxurious!!!

LOL! I looked up "rocket", it's arugula. I also had to look up gammon, it's like ham.
Aubergine is eggplant and courgettes are zucchini. And I assume you knew that prawns are jumbo shrimp - but bigger

lol... I know what you mean. It is fun to note how British English and American English have diverged. I wonder if we'll be able to understand each other at all in the next hundred years.

Amber_Baby · 06-07-2011, 04:46 AM

Haha I'm the same on here, I'm always having to google American food names! It is funny how so many are different! I mean, courgette and zucchini, they're not even similar!!

And then some people just call it Italian squash!

LisaG · 06-08-2011, 04:46 PM

Whoever suggested the lasagna made with zucchini- AWESOME!!!!!!!

Is that what people mean when they refer to "zoodles" or is that something else?

Yes. Zoodles are zucchini noodles. There is this spiral slicer gizmo that makes long thin strips out of them, too.
