Menu Plan Monday: April 20
20Apr2009 Filed under: Menu Plan Monday Author: twobarefeet
Had to redo this plan a little to include stragglers from this past weekend’s plan that didn’t get made. It was a little hectic here and things got changed. 
Monday – fish tacos (from last week, got a bit caught up over the weekend with my daughter’s baptism)
Tuesday – breakfast for dinner, wake-up casserole (leftover Easter ham, yay!)
Wednesday – salmon turnovers (I’m scared of this one. Canned salmon has always scared me but everyone who tries it raves about how convenient it is. I will let you know my thoughts.)
Thursday – coq au vin (take 2, hopefully this will be better than my last “meh” attempt)
Friday – italian cold cut calzones (from last week)
Saturday – beef stroganoff (from last week)
Sunday – soup and grilled sandwiches
About this blog
It all started as a New Year's resolution for 2009. I wanted to start trying menu planning, a concept that I had stumbled across while looking for dinner ideas online. I dove into it with energy and unlike most diets, saw success immediately. The success only made me more interested in how I could improve, what new recipes I could find, etc. I started using my family blog for menu planning posts and it kind of started to take over. So, I decided to give my culinary fumblings their own home- and mygrandcentralkitchen.com was born.
Why "my grand central kitchen?" Well, I have 2 kids that are about 20 months apart. I have a husband who works from home. Cooking is a hobby for me. So you could say that aside from the playroom, the kitchen is the busiest room in my house and usually looks it. ;) It feels a bit like Grand Central Station, especially between 4 and 7 pm.
I hope that this blog gives me even more inspiration for my own home and the ability to inspire others in the kitchen, as well. I'll be posting not just menu planning and recipe links, but also interesting things I find online, things on my wishlist and recommendations. And who knows where it might go from there. :)
I certainly hope you enjoy the ride.
