Food Friday: Meal plan week of Feb 23rd

Hello my friends, our winter thaw is over and the snow is back :(

But it was nice while it lasted. Today is cold and sunny can't really complain about that considering it's still February & winter.

Here's this weeks meal plan ideas:

Monday - Hoisin Pork

I would serve this with Basmati rice and use pork instead of chicken.

Tuesday -  Italian Bacon Drumettes 

Wednesday - Cornflake Tilapia

Ingredients:

4 tilapia fillets

2 cups corn flake crumbs

1 teaspoon dry mustard, 1/3 of a palmful

1/2 tablespoon ground coriander, half a palmful

1/2 tablespoon paprika, half a palmful

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

-In a shallow dish combine corn flake crumbs, dry mustard, coriander and paprika. Season tilapia fillets with salt and pepper, then coat them thoroughly in the seasoned corn flake crumbs.

-Preheat a large non-stick skillet with 2 turns of the pan of olive oil, about 2 tablespoons, over medium-high heat.

-Once the oil starts to ripple, add the tilapia and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.

-Serve with choice of sidedish

Thursday - Shake-n-Bake chicken with Broccoli Salad

Friday - Fricatelli
Ingredients

3 cups cooked rice
1 medium chopped onion
1/2 lb sausage, browned
1 can tomatoe soup
Cheddar Cheese shredded
Pepper to taste

-Cook the sausage (drain fat if necessary, I usually boil mine first)
-Add onions and fry with sausage.
-Then add rice and tomatoe soup, once its heated through, add cheese.
-Mix well and sprinkle pepper on top.
Easy and YUMMY!!
