Menu Plan Monday- Eating fresh!


We will be visiting Lake Erie this week and I am super excited to get away with my family! It also gives us the opportunity to try some grilled recipes and also to get some great fresh food at the farmers stands! (In which we will have our meatless meal :) ) I am excited for fall but I have to tell you that I love all this fresh food!! Happy eating y'all!

Monday: Blackened walleye, grilled asparagus, baked potatoes

Tuesday: Shredded pork tacos with fresh salsa, black beans, Spanish rice

Wednesday: Fresh green beans cooked with ham hock, corn on the cob, grilled
zucchini, sliced garden tomatoes

Thursday: Burgers, corn on the cob, salad and grilled fries (see recipe below)

Friday: Pizza Night!

Saturday: Spaghetti and cheese filled meatballs, spinach salad, garlic bread

Sunday: Chicken stir fry over brown rice and veggie egg rolls

Grilled French Fries
1 bag of frozen French fries
1/4 to 1/2 tsp. dried dill
2 to 3 tbsp. creamy Italian dressing
1 to 2 tbsp. minced onion
1/2 c. grated Cheddar cheese, RESERVE


In large bowl, mix all ingredients (except cheese) and put in a double foil packet, sealing edges tightly. Grill over hot coals for 10 to 15 minutes. Turn packet over and punch holes in foil to vent steam. Grill 10 to 15 minutes more. Open packet carefully because of steam, place French fried in a warmed serving dish and toss with 1/2 cup of grated cheddar cheese.
