Menu plan Thursday – 7 April 2011

I’m having a blog holiday next week, so here are more than 7 day’s worth of dishes to keep you fed while I’m away! 🙂

*  Pasta med kødsovs/spaghetti bolognese/pasta with meatsauce.  And salad.

*  Leftover pasta (see above) jazzed up with frozen veggies (sweetcorn/baby peas), put in a greased oven dish, covered with cheddar cheese and baked.  Serve with hot rolls.

DD9 putting the finishing touches to the rolls 🙂

*  Roast chicken with brown rice made in my (beloved) rice cooker, ‘salad’ (diced cucumber, sweetcorn and red pepper with crushed tortilla chips mixed in)

*  Boiled eggs and homemade bread made in my breadmachine.  DH isn’t home that night and the kids and I love boiled eggs! ;D

*  Big, fat, proper, meaty Danish sausages with (instant) mashed potato, chili/honey sauce and green beans

*  Enchiladas – which have become a new family favourite…yep, kidney beans n’ all!

Enchiladas are an easy peasy dinner…especially if I hand the job over to DS11! 😀

*  Madder (Danish open sandwiches = rye bread with different toppings)

*  Suppe (Danish meatball, dumpling and carrot soup), toasted rye bread

*  Pepperoni pizza – straight from the freezer.  With plenty of veggie sticks, to give some balance to the food pyramid and soothe my conscience.  Though I wouldn’t exactly recommend this food pyramid mentioned on my favourite news network The Onion… ;D

*  Herb-crusted salmon (our version of ‘fish fingers’) with bulgur made in my (beloved) ricecooker.  And yummy stir-fried savoy cabbage – my favourite cabbage of all. Bet my Mum never thought I would ever say that! ;D

Salmon with a ‘crust’ added: breadcrumbs mixed with herbs (dill), salt and lots of lemon pepper, drizzled with oil. Ready for the oven.

That’s your lot – bon appétit!

Have a thoroughly thrilling Thursday! 🙂
