Another week of doing a pretty good job sticking with the plan. The Chicken Tikka Masala was excellent and even better the second day. Substituting the So Delicious coconut milk yogurt in the marinade worked great. Also enjoyed the Chocolate Chip Cookie "Pie" DH and the kids made me for my birthday -- another dairy & soy free dessert for those of you in the market for such things.
Sorry for the lack of linked recipes this week. It's another week of pretty simple stuff...kind of makes for boring reading though, I know. I'll try and post the pea soup recipe soon though. It's good and kind of a different take on pea soup.
Also sorry for mistakenly posting that I was serving White Chicken Chili this week on Laura's MPM link. That'll teach me to just press submit after updating the hyperlink. That was two weeks ago, but I linked it again just in case someone came particularly looking for that.
Sunday: Dinner out
One of DD's friends from school had us over for a cook-out. Gorgeous weather -- love San Antonio in the fall!
Monday: Soup & Sandwiches
Leftover green pea soup with BLTs sandwiches.
Tuesday: Roasted Apple Sausages and Squash
Butternut squash, sliced bell peppers, and sweet onions roasted with Aidells Chicken Apple sausages.
Wednesday: Bacon-Wrapped Fillets, Roast Potatoes, & Salad
These were on special a few weeks back -- $2.99/twin pack...they've been hiding out in the freezer since then.
Thursday: Chicken Kofta, Quinoa Pilaf, and Crudites
DH suggested this one...a chance to try out our fun new metal skewers. Middle-eastern inspired chicken meatballs with a quinoa pilaf. Olives, hummus (Tribe's brand is safe), and maybe some cucumbers and carrots.
Friday: Chicken Fingers w/ Baked Zucchini Chips and Corn
The kids' favorite -- oven baked chicken fingers. Since DS is eliminating wheat, I'm going to try out some tortilla crumbs I found....hopefully they'll crisp nicely. Then I'm going to try my hand at some zucchini chips -- thin sliced, toss in a ziploc with olive oil and some salt -- bake in a single layer at 425.
Saturday: Roast Turkey w/ Cranberry Sauce and Sweet Potatoes
We love Thanksgiving food and since we're not hosting the family dinner this year, DH wants to be sure to have his fair share of leftovers. So we're going to roast our own turkey. Look for lots of turkey leftover recipes next week.

Your menu sounds delicious. Especially the turkey.
