I love to menu plan! It really helps put delicious homemade meals on your kitchen table each night. It also helps me prep what I can in the morning when I’m at my best and puttering around the house. My least productive time is around 4:30 in the afternoon, just when I should be starting dinner. If I don’t have a plan I fall back on my default… take-out! A menu plan is just that… a plan. Things change, stuff happens so I don’t get crazy trying to always stick to it! And some days I just don’t want to cook. On those days I don’t sweat it and order in Chinese food! YUM! Here’s what’s on the menu this week…
I’ve been finding tons of amazing looking recipes from foodie bloggers and I want to try them all!!!! This week I’m trying three new recipes. They all look so mouth watering and delicious!
SUNDAY
- GRILLED BALSAMIC FLANK STEAK ON SKEWERS
- GREEK SALAD
MONDAY
I’m drawn to Alyssa’s blog THE RECIPE CRITIC like a moth to a flame! Her recipes look scrumptious and her recipes are always so good! If you have never visited her site, take some time and dive into her culinary world. YUM!
TUESDAY
Zucchini Boats say “summer” to me! Even though my garden zucchini are not ready yet there are wonderful ones at my grocer’s. So we are enjoying this much overlooked little vegetable even before my plants have blooms on them! Zucchini Boats are a very healthy option for a weeknight meal!
- ZUCCHINI BOATS
- SLICED TOMATOES
WEDNESDAY
If you have a crowd coming for dinner this is a F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S recipe! So easy to make and everyone loves it! Make it easy and feed a whole crowd!
- FRENCH BREAD PIZZA
- SALAD CUPS
THURSDAY- SLOW COOKER DAY
Oh, goodness… my bean soup recipe is from a very old post. It is from 2009! My second month blogging. The images are hideous! But this recipe is too good to pass up in spite of the images!
- SLOW COOKER HAM AND BEAN SOUP
- CRUSTY BREAD
FRIDAY
I can’t wait to try tonight’s fish recipe. It comes from a new-to-me foodie blog, Recipe Tin Eats! Gorgeous images!!!! I can’t wait to delve deeper into Nag’s blog!
- BAKED FISH WITH LEMON CREAM SAUCE
- NANI’S SAUTEED RICE
- WILTED SPINACH WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR AND CURRANTS
SATURDAY
Oh, I love Tex-Mex food! And I am wild over Chili Rellenos! I found this soup on Pinterest and that lead me to another new-to-me foodie blog… House Of Yum! Serene’s blog is amazing!
- CHILI RELLENO SOUP
- NACHOS AND SALS
OTHER RECIPES ON THE MENU THIS WEEK…
Here’s to a very YUMMY week!
You might like to follow me on Pinterest and see what I’m finding to pin every day HERE.
Every single one looks delicious! I am really looking forward to trying the fish recipe. I have more problems trying to find good ways to prepare fish than any other. My husband would eat fish of some kind every day but I get in such a rut either frying (which I try to stay from) or a quick saute so this recipe will be a welcome change. These are all “tryers” for me because we would both like them all. He is not quite as adventurious as I am when it comes to new recipes. Thanks for all your hard work!!
I really enjoy this blog feature each week; it’s like having our very own Stonegable cookbook.
Everything looks delicious.
So glad you are doing your menus for the week again, Yvonne!

Everything looks delicious! I haven’t made zucchini boats since I was first married 45+ years ago. The recipe I had called them “zuccanoes”. I should try them again. Thank you for your posts.
You always share the best recipes!!!
These look sooooo good! Thanks Yvonne! Can’t wait to try, especially the Chicken Cacciatore!
they certainly are some yummy recipes!
Every one of those recipes sounds so good! I love how you said your photos for the soup post are so bad and yet someone had commented when you first posted it back in ’09 that your photos were great! You photograph like a professional these days – everything looks like it’s out of a magazine 🙂
New to your blog, love these recipes!
Welcome to the StoneGable family, Marilyn!
Can’t wait to try the fish recipe with barramundi fillets this week!
Always,always looks so yummy!
This all looks good. Yum !

You nailed it with this week’s menus!
Yummy is all that needs to be said. Making up my shopping list now and cant wait to try all. Love your meal plans. Thanks
More delicious recipes to try! Thanks!
Really amazing looking food, I am making those zucchini boats. And that fish in lemon sauce yum
Thanks, Pat
Love your menus each week! I can’t wait to try the soup and fish dishes.
This menu plan is right down my alley, everything looks AMAZING!! Crusty bread will pair nicely with a couple of these scrumptious dishes. Not to mention the Berry Crisp sends it over the top.
Everything looks so delicious!
More yummy recipes.I just made chicken cacciatore this past week.
