Wow-the end of March.  I feel like the new year just got here.  With the cold temperatures in the Midwest hopefully ending, people start to eat a little lighter and maybe a little healthier.  Hopefully those will come into play in some of my upcoming menus, but as of right  now- it is still cold and there is nothing I like better than some comfort food to help warm me up!  Here is our menu for this week.

Monday: Teriyaki chicken with Asian rice
Tuesday: Fried chicken with mashed potatoes
Wednesday: BBQ or Sloppy Joe’s- whatever you would like to call them!
Thursday: Turkey noodle casserole
Friday: Baked Cod

Let me know what you are having this week for dinner….
