Sunday:
Tuna Patties, Roasted Parmesan Green Beans, & Whole Wheat Rolls
·
Growing up, my mom made salmon patties, and I
LOVED them! I haven’t had them in
years! I saw this recipe on Pinterest
for tuna patties, and I thought I would give it a try. On this Sunday evening, I needed a quick dinner,
and this seemed like a great time to try these.
I was skeptical at first…those first smells of tuna can be a bit
overwhelming. (Chad – in the next room
with the kids – was also a bit suspicious.

But, these actually turned out quite tasty! I didn’t have time to chop any onion, which I
didn’t miss at all. I forgot to add the
lemon juice when I mixed them up, so I added it to them as they cooked. I also added a few crackers because the
mixture seemed a bit wet to me. Still,
after eating them, we decided we would definitely have them again
sometime. (http://www.thegraciouspantry.com/)
Roasted Parmesan Green Beans
·
Lay green
beans in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet. Toss with olive oil
(not too much!), salt, & pepper. Sprinkle with freshly grated
parmesan. Roast at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes, depending on the size
of your green beans. We like ours to be just turning brown along the
edges!
Monday:
Slow Cooker Chicken Caesar Sandwiches with Zucchini Chips
·
We really enjoyed these!! This recipe is ridiculously easy, and it’s
also delicious! Next time, I will cut
back on the pepper a bit. I served ours
on whole wheat hoagie rolls with butter lettuce. Yum!
As a bonus, the leftovers made a wonderful chicken salad that I was able
to have for lunch for a few days. I just
added pecans and grapes. I plan to make
this chicken again this week for the sole purpose of having chicken salad. (http://rachelschultz.com/)

I haven’t
made zucchini chips in a while, but now that zucchini is in season and so
delicious, I will be working them into our menu often! The boys love them, and I love any recipe
that enables my boys to happily eat their vegetables. (http://www.nutritionistinthekitch.com/)
Tuesday:
Leftovers
·
Chad was
gone, and I had more than enough food from the night before! Yay leftovers!
Wednesday:
Eat Out
·
Chad was
gone again, so we ate out.
Thursday: Homemade Pizzas
·
Now that
I’ve discovered how deliciously easy Pioneer
Woman’s pizza crust is, I’m wanting pizza all the time! I made the always-reliable pepperoni &
cheese for the boys. For us, I made one
very similar to the Pioneer Woman’s with eggplant, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes,
rotisserie chicken, pesto, & fresh mozzarella. It was wonderful….even the next day when we
had it for lunch!
