Weekly Meal Planning, week of 8.9.10

Well, it’s happened. I’m in a cooking slump.

This happens to me every once in a while. Nothing sounds good, I don’t feel like cooking, I’m not inspired. But I guess if it was going to happen, this was a good week for it since we’re on vacation -- which is a great excuse not to cook anything fancy.

Don't forget: If you'd like to guest post here next week, e-mail me at cassiecraves[at]yahoo[dot]com. There are still a few spots available! :)

Monday: Sesame ginger chicken lettuce wraps, fried rice

Tuesday: Steaks on the grill (Joe has been clamoring for a good steak for a while now, so I figured I’d better oblige), baked potatoes, corn on the cob with basil butter (which is just a stick of softened butter and a handful of fresh basil, pulsed together in a food processor or blender. So simple, and you wouldn't believe how delicious it is!)

Wednesday: Double bean-stuffed green peppers, fruit salad with creamy lime dressing

Thursday
: Sweet and sour chicken, rice, steamed broccoli

Friday: Dinner out

I have been in a cooking slump lately :( I think it's because it's been so hot here nothing sounds good. I hope I get over it soon! I haven't had much new to post about.

I think summers are a tough time for cooking. We're all usually much busier than usual and when it's so hot out who in the world wants to heat up the kitchen. I, for one, can barely grill anything so that ends that!!!
