Menu Plan Monday.
Last week, we went veggie and it wasn’t difficult at all, though we did miss our protein. Even though beans and legumes have lots of protein, it’s not the same as a nice piece of chicken. This week, we’re keeping it simple. Since Alice and I are going to Albany this weekend, I only have to make dinner four nights this week, and Thursday’s dinner is guaranteed to have leftovers for Henry to eat while we’re gone. Tonight, I’m also making a dish for my neighbors down the hall who just had twins last week!
Monday: Oven baked breaded Chicken tenders with broccoli.
Tuesday: Carmelized onion and potato fritatta (Thanks to @bakingandbooks for the recipe in 140 characters!) with a salad.
Wednesday: Vegetarian Tostadas with rice and beans
Thursday: Chicken parm. When it comes to chicken parm, I’ve tried fancy versions and healthy versions but I always come back to my mom’s partner’s recipe. It’s straight-up Ragu brand sauce and block mozzarella cheese, and yes… it HAS to be Ragu!

Yay for the veggies! And too funny about the ragu! I'll only touch the Old World Style. I prefer Classico but much more prefer making my own!

I actually ended up getting the 365 brand at Whole Foods because they don't sell Ragu there… don't tell!
