ON THE MENU FEBRUARY 26TH

ON THE MENU WEEK OF FEB 26TH- I've done all the planning for a week worth of scrumptious dinners!

I always “jump the gun” when it comes to transitioning from one season to another. Especially when it comes to Spring! I love love love gardening… or at least the idea of gardening. So digging in the dirt in the spring is such a joy to me. Coaxing the earth after it’s winter nap and bringing green things to life! My love of seasons continues on in what we eat too. I am such a seasonal, eat-what-is-growing-locally kind of girl. I’m already transitioning my recipes to reflect the end of winter and the beginning of spring!

SUNDAY

I love easy Sunday dinners. Especially when the family is here at StoneGable. I want to spend time enjoying my family instead of slaving away in the kitchen! We all love chili and cornbread and it’s even better when it’s served in a mason jar!

MONDAY

What do you eat for breakfast? I’m not much of a breakfast eater, so I often opt for a yummy protein shake! My favorite is chocolate shake mixed with frozen berries. Chocolate and berries are a delicious combination!

I can’t wait to make this “new to me” recipe. YUM!

TUESDAY

Say goodbye to February! It’s been kind to us this year. But March often comes in like a “lion” here. I’m filling my home with spring flowers and herbs and green plants. This is the time of year I get so itchy to dig in the dirt!

I grew up eating salmon cakes and they are good-for-you comfort food. If you never have eaten a salmon cake you should give them a try!

ON THE MENU WEEK OF FEB 26TH- I have a week's worth of scrumptious recipes for you!

WEDNESDAY

Happy March!!!! March 1st in my mind is the real beginning of spring! I’m not waiting for the spring equinox! So I’m getting my spring seeds for the garden today! By the ides of March I’ll be planting lettuce and sweet pea seeds. I’ll also put out my onion sets. We can grow the sweetest onions here at StoneGable! Can’t wait to dig in the garden!

I went to another Hungarian, who is one of the great queens of fabulous food, for her Chicken Paprikash! Martha Stewart’s recipe is delicious and authentic. “It’s a good thing”! And a must try!

  1. Absolutely enjoy your menu plans. I have recently started writing mine on a large chalk board and it helps me a ton, especially on busy nights.

  2. Chris Elston says:

    I made your Nani’s Sauteed Rice and it is now a “regular” in our household. Just delicious and goes with anything.

  3. Anne Marie says:

    Great sounding meals – thanks for sharing.

  4. I LOVE your blog!!! So glad your brought back “What’s on the Menu” each week!!

  5. Yum.. The recipes sound so delicious. I will be trying some of these.

  6. Breakfast cookies…YUM!!!

  7. Thank you for posting the link to your salad dressing recipes. I have been looking for a good Italian vinaigrette recipe, so I will give yours a try. Parmesan Peppercorn is our favorite creamy dressing. I started making salad dressing instead of using the bottled dressings. It really doesn’t take that much effort, and it really takes an ordinary salad up a notch. I will definitely be pinning this!

  8. The chicken kabobs are on this week’s menu. And, I’ll be serving them with potato wedges. They are so easy to make and fewer calories than French fries.
    I started making my own dressings about two years ago when I decided to cut sugar and salt intake. I’ve found several favourites that
    I like much better than any store bought dressing. I’ll be trying your peppercorn ranch.

  9. Great recipes. Worth trying

  10. Theresa Nolan says:

    Cannot wait to try those breakfast cookies with coffee! Thanks!

  11. Priscilla says:

    Hi.. Having a little trouble finding the rib recipe. Thank you.

  12. Lillian Lane says:

    Everything sounds yummy. It is cold in Northern California, so I think I am ready for some chili and corn bread. Sometimes I layer vertically sliced wieners in the bottom of a 9x 12 baking pan, put chili on top, sprinkle with shredded cheddar and onions, and top it all with corn bread batter and bake it until the corn bread is nicely browned. The cornbread is even better is I put some diced jalapenos in the batter. I think some cheese and onion in the batter might also be good.

  13. The salmon cakes idea sounds really good to me since I am always looking for new ways to get fish into our diet. Thanks!

  14. Always look forward to your recipes!

  15. It all sounds so delicious.. I am going to make the Spareribs this week.. my husband was smiling when I told him! However I can’t seem to get the recipe… Hugs, Judy

  22. GwenCondit says:

    I’m hungry! Everything looks so good. Oh I wish I had the breakfast cookies. Those chicken skewers looked great. I’ve not made ribs in years!! I’m hungry! My girls were chatting about a ranch recipe. I think I’ll share yours with them right now. Gotta go share and dream of good food

    Wonderful recipes and beautiful displays

  38. Carol Elkins says:

    I love how you serve the chili and cornbread in a mason jar! Thanks for sharing your yummy recipes!

  39. I first tried the rosemary ranch chicken kabobs a couple of years ago. They quickly became a favorite! But since we woke up to snow this morning and our grill is still hibernating in the garage, I’m thinking either the chili or the chicken paprikash would be good choices. It all looks yummy!
