Menu Plan for the Week of 5/17 with a Sprinkle of Good News

In the interest of keeping things simple, I am pulling most of my ideas from the family meals in the June issue of All You.  After being away for most of last week, I am eager to have a quick plan for this week's meals.

Another fun magazine also arrived recently--the June issue of Better Homes and Gardens. I received a complimentary copy because I made the honor roll in their monthly recipe contest.  Though my recipe was not published, I do plan to whip up my Ginger-Peach Spice Ice Cream Sandwiches this week to celebrate this recognition of creative effort.  Can you tell that I am externally motivated?

Here is this week's attempt to bring some order to each day:

Monday - Baked Pasta with Peas, Cheese, and Ham
Tuesday - Corn Chowder with Shrimp
Wednesday - Venison Steaks with Tomato  Bread Salad
Thursday - Seafood Risotto
Friday- Cold Sesame Noodles
Saturday - Tilapia and Rice


Lunches: Stuffed avocados, egg salad sandwiches, pigs in a blanket, pancakes, pita sandwiches, leftovers
