In this week's meal plan, you'll find some items are bolded, which indicates a homegrown or local item from our urban homestead. Of course, there will be a few repeats throughout the week since we try to eat in-season.
Note: Lunches are always leftovers, and we rarely have dessert. On weekends, we usually have some sort of brunch featuring eggs from the ladies instead of a leftover lunch. Dinners are listed below:
- Monday - Spanish rice with ground pork, homemade bread and jalapeño cashew spread
- Tuesday - French onion soup and leftover fruit cobbler from this weekend (if there's any remaining…)
- Wednesday - Beer brats and onions (no bun) with steamed broccoli
- Thursday - Dinner at the stadium for our nephew's game.
- Friday - Quinoa with tomatoes, goat cheese, herbs from the garden and a maple balsamic glaze
- Saturday - Honey cashew chicken on top of leftover plain wild rice/quinoa mix
- Sunday - Chopped chicken salad (including kale, onion, pepper, carrot, goat cheese, mushrooms, sunflower seeds, and a homemade vinaigrette) with homemade croutons
Mostly Homemade Mondays is a series for people that are on a journey to better living, via healthier eating and a more natural lifestyle. We realize that there are different paths that we all take to get to that place, and this bloghop celebrates that. Whether you’re a seasoned raw foodist who has banned all things unnatural, or a rookie who is starting out by cutting out junk food, we’d love to hear from you! Link up with your favorite recipes, projects, crafts, or rants and raves.
The Hosts:
Sarah of Frugal by Choice, Cheap by Necessity

Hey we're Margaret & Karen of Pure Pearl Homestead! We shared the yummy AND healthy XYZ Muffins. It's a mystery as to what's in them until you see the post! And it's a mystery to our husbands as to what's really in them, too or else they wouldn't go near 'em! As Karen said to me today, "What is it with cowboys??" Haha, they just don't like vegetables--we have to hide them and make them taste good! And so these muffins were born!! :) Thanks!
