Menu Planning Monday (but not on Monday)

Oriental Chicken Salad-Add grilled chicken to a salad of lettuce, cucumbers, and onions. Top with Ramen noodle toppping and Asian dressing.

Ramen Noodle Topping (1 stick margarine, 1/2 cup almonds, 2 oz. sesame seeds, 6 oz. broken Ramen noodles: Saute until golden. Drain on paper towels.)

Dressing (3 T. sugar/Splenda, 2 T. soy sauce, 4 1/2 t. vinegar, 2 1/4 t. water, 2 1/4 t. oil, seasoning packet from Ramen noodles: Place all ingredients together and shake or stir until well mixed.)

Homemade pizza with Garlic/Herb Crust
Fresh fruit

Freebie vegetable soup (After meals, I freeze any leftover vegetables. Even if there are only a couple tablespoons left. Then I add tomato juice, beef broth, some meat if I want, and you have instant soup.
Naan (Indian flat bread) Time consuming but so worth it.

Cowboy Beans
Fritos
Fruit

Hot dogs with baked beans or kraut
Pudding parfaits (Layer your favorite pudding with crushed up cookies, cool whip, marshmallows and bananas)
