weekly menu posting

back into the menu swing after

sunday: chicken & rice dinner -- we got home from chicago and needed something to eat.  i wasn't up for going out to eat once again, so i threw this together with stuff we had in our pantry.

monday: bbq at the murphy's -- celebrated labor day at greg and leslie's with a bbq.  we had a delicious steak dinner and these roasted balsamic sweet potatoes.

tuesday: baked ham & swiss sandwiches with oven roasted garlic brussels sprouts -- oh my goodness.  this dinner was so good, i can't wait to make it again.  instead of using king's hawaiian rolls, i used my mom's homemade sweet rolls. if you're looking for a way to fancy up a ham and cheese sandwich, i highly recommend checking this recipe out.  the brussels sprouts were fabulous as well, tons of garlic.

wednesday: steak salad with bacon, crispy potatoes & blue cheese dressing along with creme brulee  -- i've made this recipe before and just love it.  it's super filling for a salad with lots of different flavors and textures.

thursday: pretzel crusted pork cutlets with garlic roasted green beans with shallots and hazelnuts -- i love a pretzel crusted chicken recipe so this should be just as good.  for the green beans, i'm going to use pine nuts or almonds because i have both on hand.

friday: sakari -- we're only dining out once this week so sushi it is, pretty excited.  we're going to hit up sakari as they have amazing happy hour specials, including $4 rolls.

saturday: iowa/iowa state game -- tailgate food all day long, so excited that fall is here.
