Menu Planning Monday ~ A New Menu for a New Year

New Years is coming... and that means New Years resolutions... for me one of them has to do with eating more fruits, veggies, and whole grains so starting Jan. 1, my menus will include more planned healthy items.

Monday
- None planned... we will be visiting with friends out of town.

Tuesday - Angel Food Chicken Nuggets, corn, salad, potato rolls

Wednesday - New Year's Eve - Baked "fried" chicken, potato salad, lots of finger foods (see below), chocolate fondue

Thursday - Grilled whole wheat sandwiches with leftover appetizers from previous night, fruit salad for dessert

Friday - tilapia with mushroom risotto, steamed broccoli, spinach salad

Saturday - Chicken marsala with portobellos, served with whole wheat angel hair pasta, large italian salad

Sunday - Ribeyes (from angel food), twice baked potatoes, cajun seasoned steamed veggie mix, sliced tomatoes with dill
