Mindful Menus - Week of 5/3/2010

Welcome to Mindful Menus - A Menu Planning Blog Roll to inspire health through real food!

It is my hope that this blog roll will inspire others to health through menu planning and to introduce you to the joys of menu planning. Yes, there are joys! If you are new to menu planning, I am more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

Don't forget to keep checking back as menu plans are added.



Thanks again to all who entered the Chivetalkin - Lotus Foods Giveaway! It was a fun giveaway to do and remember EVERYONE is a winner with the chivetalk10 coupon code at Lotus Foods . You get 10% off your entire order now through May 20th!

Here's what's on the menu this week:

Monday - Vegetarian - Wild Mushroom, Spinach, Garlic Omelet and mixed baby greens with strawberries and feta in a balsamic basil dressing.

Tuesday - Salmon with Cilantro Lime Sauce ... steamed green beans... brown jasmine rice.

Wednesday - Vegetarian - Tostadas ... Take a tostada, spread with refried beans, then add toppings of your choice - mixed baby greens, homemade salsa, raw cheese, homemade guacamole, onions, cilantro, raw pumpkin seeds - tasty and super easy!

Thursday - Last week, I did the vegetarian version of this salad. This week, I am adding chicken (and maybe bacon!) for a Layered Cobb Salad of organic romaine and baby spinach, raw cheddar cheese, mixed black and green olives, red onion, avocado - and whatever other veggies look good and "local" at the market. Dressed in a homemade creamy pepper parmesan dressing.

Friday - It's Friday... you know what that means - back to POW (Pizza of the Week) this week for the local pizzeria.

Until next time... Eat REAL, Eat WELL- Cheers!!!
