It’s a Monday and I am working on my menu for the week so I thought I would do a quick Menu Plan Monday post! I have been letting my cooking magazines pile up so I vowed to finally go through them today and pull out some recipe ideas for the week. Have you seen this November’s issue of Cooking Light– it’s huge! I’m looking forward to sitting down and reading it in its entirety, but for now I just flipped through. They list the top 25 best Cooking Light recipes ever from 1987 through 2011. I’m thinking about making all 25 dishes and doing a post about each one- might be a fun challenge and a sure fire way to try some great recipes!
Anyway, here’s my menu plan for the week. I’m taking a few nights off here and there from cooking. My husband has requested low-carb meals, which is always a challenge because I enjoy making carb-y dishes.
Monday: going out to eat
Tuesday: Walnut and Rosemary Oven-Fried Chicken and a side salad from Cooking Light, November 2012
Wednesday: Poblano-Turkey Sausage Chili from Cooking Light, October 2012
Thursday: Lemony Chicken Saltimbocca with steamed haricots verts from Cooking Light, November 2012
Friday: Beef and Broccoli Bowl from Cooking Light, October 2012
Saturday: night off from cooking
Sunday: Soy-Ginger Pork Chop with Stir-Fried Bok Choy from Martha Stewart Everyday Food, November 2012 – recipe not available on-line, but here is a similar recipe
What is on your menu for the week?

How was dinner Sunday night? I’m a fellow MPM-er and I’m making the Everyday Food recipe tonight but with chicken instead of pork. Was just looking online to find the recipe and couldn’t find it online, but came upon your site. How funny!
Hi Jessica- the pork came out really well. It’s definitely a recipe keeper! It would definitely work for chicken as well. I also subbed kale for the bok choy and that came out great as well!
