Deciding what to cook this week just got a whole lot easier! With these 2 easy menus, plus ideas for dessert, snacks and breakfast made easy, Monday Menu has everything to make sure your week is deliciously successful!
This week’s menus have something for everyone! Serve up some family time with a welcoming Creole Turkey Dinner with potato salad and green beans, then finish up the week with a casual pizza night with gourmet southern flair. Both meals are simple to put together but yet still make meal times special!
This week’s snack, dessert and breakfast idea are here to make life easy as well! Sheet Pan Eggs in a Basket let you cook up breakfast for everyone all at once and hands free. Week day mornings are going to be revolutionized! Pecan Pie Brownies and Strawberry Salsa offer a little sweet and spicy to fill in the gaps with dessert and afternoon or weekend chips & dip!
Menu 1- Easy Creole Turkey Dinner
Coated with simple creole seasoning & butter, then roasted with fresh herbs & touch of citrus, bone-in Creole Roasted Turkey Breasts are deliciously tender, juicy & full of savory flavor! Perfect for easy meals when you want something other than the same ol' chicken!
Southern Deviled Egg Potato Salad is one of the dreamiest, tastiest side dishes around! It combines all the flavors of deviled eggs with red onion, pickles and tender potatoes to create a fluffy, tangy salad that’s perfect for cookouts, potlucks, tailgates, even holidays!
A good green bean recipe is a staple for the family table. But if you think bland, boring or just something to round out the meal when you hear green beans, then you’ve never had them quite like this. Sautéed with bacon and baby portobellas, these green beans are bursting with rich, earthy favors that you just won’t believe! Love green bean casserole, but don’t love all that goes in it? Well, this is your recipe too!
Menu 2- Southern Pizza Night
This easy recipe puts gourmet pizza right at your finger tips without having to go out! Rich layers of cheese, BBQ pulled pork, fresh peaches, red onion, & cool cilantro create a bistro worthy pie right in your own oven or on the grill any night of the week.
Crisp and zesty, these easy refrigerator pickles are steeped in lemonade, garlic, pepper and dill to create a delicious little pickle that packs a powerful flavor punch. Perfect with sandwiches, at cookouts and on appetizer trays, there’s no better way to enjoy small batches of homemade pickles than with this classic easy recipe with a fun flavor twist! Â
Homestyle Deviled Eggs are loaded with picnic toppings! Topped with a sliced sweet pickle, chives, and chopped smoky bacon, these deviled eggs are the ultimate in side dish tradition.
Dessert This Week!
Pecan pie and brownies! It’s a true Southern match straight from Heaven. Dark, fudgey brownies and toasted pecan pie filling are the perfect combination in these Gooey Black Bottomed Pecan Pie Brownies. Wonderfully rich and decadent, you’ll never spend your dessert calories on a plain ol’ brownie ever again!
Here’s What We’re Snacking On
The strawberries are summer sweet, and this easy recipe for Avocado Strawberry Salsa is both sweet & just a little spicy. It is a sunny bowl of ripe strawberries, red onions, light cilantro, smooth avocado, with a pinch of jalapeno heat. Perfect as an appetizer/dip, on grilled chicken or pork, even on fish tacos, your friends and family are going to love this fresh & zippy little fruit salsa.
Making Breakfast Easy
Eggs in a Basket, also known as Egg in the Hole, combine all the yumminess of an egg and toast breakfast in a one bite without all the hassle of making separate dishes- breakfast sandwich par excellence. This is twice as true when you add sausage and cook several at a time on a sheet pan right in your oven! With this easy recipe, you can make enough Eggs in a Basket for the whole family at once.
