Menu Plan late-Monday

So much for starting the new year in an organized fashion!
Oh well. We have been busy with family get-togethers and the resulting colds and germs that go along with all of that (read: crabby kids)! This week it is back to the ordinary life. . .I think, anyway!
Monday-We had creamy chicken (CP) on buns and salad
Tuesday- We had Taco Salad
Wednesday-Thinking about pizza sandwiches or pizza
Thursday-Tuscan Chicken sandwiches (CP), stir fried veggies
Friday-Hamburgers (just want the BBQ going in the cold! we did it this past weekend with some salmon, and it is just yum when you smell that outside!)
Saturday- see my appy selection below
Sunday-pancakes and ham
Appies: Since it is a new year and no one wants to be eating anymore, here are a few of the appies/treats we had over the holidays (while I ceased to blog!)
Fresh Salsa
6 Roma tomatoes, 1 c. chopped onion, 1 T. garlic, 1 pepper, 1 t. hot chili, 1/2 t. cumin, 2 T oil, 2 t. lemon or lime juice.
Chop, mix, let sit for 1/2 hour, and enjoy!
Bruschetta
8-10 tomatoes, 2T finely chopped onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/4 c. fresh basil, 2 t. red wine vinegar, 3 T olive oil, salt and pepper--to taste.
Mix ingredient together and let stand for 1/2 hour. Drain excess liquid. Slice Italian bread, brush with 3 T oil, broil on low until just browning. Spoon tomato mixture on top of bread. Enjoy!
