Dinner will be roast chicken with roasted new potatoes and carrots, green beans with almonds, and either ice cream or cookies (if I have time to bake) for dessert. I will make double of everything and take a dinner to some friends who are in need of a mom-cooked meal.
Breakfast and lunch...who knows? I've only just had my coffee

Dinner will be Chicken Valdostana from Catholic Culture for St. Scholastica's feast day today. I actually have everything I need though I am subbing provolone for the fontina cheese - $$$ - wow! is fontina expensive or what?
Lunch will be leftover pizza from last night with apples and cheddar (we are on a huge cheese kick here.)

What does your lentil stew recipe look like, Suzanne? I have one and I am completely uninspired by it.

Breakfast...boxed cereal
Lunch...BBQ beef sandwiches and apple slices
Dinner...I have some leftover shredded beef that I need to use. I think I will make some kind of stroganoff, or perhaps something with corn tortillas...
Ideas are always welcome!

Breakfast....pancakes and sausage patties
Lunch...mac n cheese with cubed ham bits
Dinner....cheeseburgers, sweet potato fries, veggies and dip
I just made a new two week menu rotation that I hope will take us through Lent and into the Easter season. The thing that's nice is for each meal I can prep ahead the first time it comes up and then every other time will be easy...for instance, I'm patting out five pounds worth of burgers this afternoon, and cooking a huge batch of sweet potato fries...I'll freeze the patties and fries in portions to do this meal two more times, only having to warm everything up. I love when meal planning works!

How do you precook the fries?
We had granola for breakfast, fried rice for lunch, and i think we'll have pot roast hash for dinner.
I have realized that my nursing toddler (13 months) eats roughly three tablespoonfuls of food per day, plus a handful of Cheerios. He seems perfectly okay, so I'm not worried, I'm just wondering if he's switched to photosynthesis.

I am making a casserole with polenta on the bottom, covered by a beef and bean chili, topped with cheese.

I have no clue. Probably some kind of Italian chicken thing over orzo.
I made a meal plan for the week but it's somehow not working the way I'd expected it to...

Breakfast was grits with brown sugar - upon Sammy's request!
Lunch was leftover clam chowder with croutons, baby carrots, and pretzels.
Dinner will be crustless quiche and a salad.

I'm hoping to have roasted chicken with potatoes and carrots and cauliflower, but I've never roasted a chicken before. Anyone have a good recipe?

I don't have a recipe for "roasted chicken", but I do a mean baked chicken. Clean the chicken, and season it with Lawry's seasoned salt (or your favorite seasoning) and wrap tightly in foil. Bake for about 1 1/2-2 hours at 350-375. I have stuffed the cavity with an onion and garlic, and put a little white whine in the foil with the chicken. My favorite part is the juice inside the foil. MMM.

Rinse the chicken inside and out and dry with paper towels (remove any giblets, neck, etc. that may be in the cavity at this point). Season the cavity with salt & pepper, stuff with half a lemon (or half an onion, whatever you have on hand), half a head of garlic or so, some fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, parsley) if you have them, or a sprinkling of dry herbs. Tie the legs of the chicken together with twine (or unwaxed, unflavored dental floss works in a pinch). Put the chicken in a roasting pan, breast side up. Put your potatoes, carrots and cauliflower around the chicken in the pan. Drizzle everything with olive oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Roast the chicken for 1-1 1/2 hours (or 20 min. per pound of chicken) or until a meat thermometer reads 165 when inserted into the thickest part of the thigh. Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes or so after you take it out of the oven, before carving it.
That's how I'm cooking mine tonight, anyways!
