I'm back on the wagon - or off, I don't know

Back to menu planning!

M: PW's Perfect Pot Roast, Mashed Potatoes (I've been using the Ore Ida Steam & Mash potatoes lately, since I go grocery shopping twice a week, the potatoes always seem to be sprouting when I decide to cook them) I doctor them up by adding in some salt, pepper, cream cheese and caramelized onions.
T: PW's Crispy Yogurt Chicken, Green Beans
W: From PW, again, Pasta a la Marlboro Man, Spinach Salad & Garlic Bread

So, I basically just opened up the PW cookbook on the way to the grocery store and made out my list for the next two weeks (Ryan was driving, don't worry).

Th: Out to dinner in the big city
F: Chicken Fried Steak. I might go with PW's recipe.
S: Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas - my recipe. I'll post as soon as I decide how I am going to make it this time.
Su: Chicken Noodle Soup - a hodgepodge of different recipes.
M: Leftovers
T: Tacos. I like having Taco Tuesday's, it's my ode to Rosa's Cafe.
W: Hamburger Pie (I found this recipe in this month's Weight Watcher's Magazine - looking for a link)
Th: Out to dinner in the big city
F: Chicken and Wild Rice Salad from "With Love, from Cynthia," owner of the Peach Tree Tea Room in Fredericksburg.
Sa: Chicken Spaghetti, from you guessed it, PW.
Su: PW Meatloaf with Creamy Mashed potatoes (I found this recipe in her cookbook, but can't find it online).

I also have plans to make PW's Mocha Brownies and a Lemon Poppyseed Cake I found in the Weight Watcher's Magazine over the next two weeks.

I just love the contrast between Weight Watcher's recipes and PW's. My goal is to even out the two over the next few months.

What are YOU making for dinner?

I'm making my favorite, super easy enchiladas. I'll post the recipe and photos later.
