On The Menu Week Of August 22nd

Need ideas for dinner this week? I have 7 scrumptious dinner menus and 40 delicious recipes just for you!  Main dishes, side dishes, salads, soups, breads, desserts, and great tips and ideas for making every meal its best! Here's what's On The Menu week of August 22nd.

On the menu this week are lots of great summery foods. We are eating corn and zucchini and raspberries and onions and tomatoes from our garden and local farm stands. Talk about farm-to-table eating. And we are grilling! Nothing is better than a fresh piece of meat or fish grilled and served beside veggies picked out of the garden!  Peaches are especially delicious in our area this year too!

Here’s what’s on the menu this week…

MONDAY

The fish on today’s menu looks luscious! It’s such a quick and delicious dinner on a busy weekday!

TUESDAY

Chicken Cacciatore is a big favorite of Bobby’s. I’m making a new-to-me recipe that I think he will love. Don’t be afraid to try new versions of your favorite recipes. You just might find one you love better. And change is a good thing!

This zesty recipe comes from Beach House Kitchen. Thanks, Maryann.

WEDNESDAY

When life gets hectic and too busy to fuss I turn to easy peasy handheld items on the menu! Like these darling little ham cheese and spinach puffs. I can grab and go!

Use a good quality store bought puff pastry to make these little puffs easy to make!

Thanks, Eatwell 101!

Wow your guests for your next brunch with these ham & cheese puffs. eatwell101.com

THURSDAY

Beef brisket is an On The Menu treat! We don’t have it often and we should. Everyone here at Tanglewood LOVES brisket. And brisket makes fabulous leftovers!

The flavor profile for this brisket is divine!

Another new to me recipe. Thanks, Simply Delicious.

FRIDAY

The first time I tried fried green tomatoes was on a trip to Savannah. It’s the perfect Southern city to eat my first fried green tomatoes, don’t you think?

And this started my love affair with fried green tomatoes and Savannah! As a northerner, it’s almost sinful to pick green tomatoes off the vine this time of year but I just can’t wait another month to eat these wonderful bites of Southern deliciousness!

We are eating them as a main dish and not a side. So what do you serve with fried green tomatoes? Another Southern side dish!

SUNDAY

This salmon recipe is just so beautiful! I know it’s going to be special just by the way it looks! Thanks, Feedfeed!

We certainly eat with our eyes first!

TREAT OF THE WEEK

This lovely lemon zucchini glazed loaf is one of my favorite summery treats! It is just so good and moist!

Lemon is the dominant flavor but it is the humble zucchini that works its magic in the delicious sweet bread!
