Menu for Vegetarian Week (March 7 - 13, 2010)

My husband has been asking me to make more vegetarian dishes because we could both use less meat so I thought it would be fun to go a whole week eating delicious vegetarian food that does not involve pasta or lentils. (I can't stand lentils. Their consistency feels very strange to me.)

Based on what I have in the pantry, refrigerator, and freezer, here's what I have planned for next week:

Sunday - Roasted Vegetable Salad with Dijon Dressing (whatever vegetables I have in the fridge and I still have some Romaine Lettuce Hearts that need to be used up), grapes, cucumber spears with dip.

Monday - (Baseball Night) - Cheesy Broccoli Soup and Spinach Salad, Pineapple Chunks

Tuesday - Dinner at a Friend's house. (Bringing wine and cheese.)

Wednesday - Crepes with Caramelized Onion, Feta, and Spinach Sauce (I hope it tastes as good the ones sold by the Crepe Ladies here in Austin!), Apple Slices, Carrots with Dip

Thursday - (Soccer Night) - Aloo Gobhi Masala, an Indian recipe with cauliflower and potato in a spicy sauce, and Jasmine Rice. (I can make it in advance and have dinner when we get home from soccer. ) Steamed Edamame, Melon Wedges.

Friday - Portobello Mushroom Burgers, Spinach Salad (if we have Spinach Leftover otherwise, steamed broccoli), and Strawberries

Saturday - Falafal Sandwiches (if we haven't left on our Spring Break mini-vacation)

Can't wait to try all this food!!!!
