What We're Eating - Week of 3/30/09

I've been stocking up while grocery shopping the past few weeks, so this week I'm going to try to rely mainly on what I already have. My pantry and freezer are stuffed!

Monday

Gnocchi with Ricotta and Spinach

I'll make this slightly healthier with lower-fat dairy options, but let's face it: it's comfort food night.

Tuesday

***Frozen Pizza***!!!!

It's boys' night, because the night class I'm teaching is starting this night, and Jack has a baseball game. I always have a DiGiorno's pizza in the freezer for boys' night, and no one complains! Jack likes it better than homemade, to my chagrin.

Wednesday

Mongolian Beef
Broccoli
Brown rice

This recipe calls for cube steak, so I'll give it one more try: I wasn't a fan of the NYT cube steak recipe I tried a few weeks ago.

Thursday

Chicken Breasts Stuffed with Artichokes, Lemon, and Cheese

I haven't made this Cooking Light recipe in years. It calls for goat cheese, but I'll use feta, mozzarella, or a combination.
Salad
Whole-Grain Bread

Friday

The breakfast sandwich
Potatoes

I can't wait to hear how the gnocchi and risotto dish turns out! It sounds like a lot of work!

I actually made the gnocchi a few years ago and I loved it. So I'm definitely looking forward to having it again. :-)

I love their blogs! Alexis is so talented yet so much more down-to-earth than Martha.

I'm hungy!
