September 1 Menu

Here's what we're eating:

Monday:

Beef and Broccoli
    This recipe is in my head. I do just a cheap steak from the store that I cut in small pieces. I cut broccoli in bit sized pieces as well. The sauce I use:
1/4 c soy sauce
1/4 c brown sugar
1 t Ground ginger
Red pepper flakes
I marinate the meat in the sauce for at least half hour. I put oil in a pan and saute 2 cloves chopped garlic in it. Quickly add the meat and cook until it's rare. Add the broccoli and add a little water or broth and cook until broccoli is tender. Serve over rice.

Tuesday:

Hamburgers
I get a pound of ground beef and add worstiershire sauce to it. If I'm feeling crazy I'll add a dry ranch packet to it. I form those into four balls and press into patties. Sometime I grill them and sometimes I cook on a skillet, both ways are amazing! While those are cooking I saute onions in butter until they turn brown and sweet. When burgers are done I top them with cheese and the onions. Serve them on buns with the condiments you want!

Wednesday:

Taco salad
Brown 1lb ground beef and add in red beans. Salt and pepper to taste. Thinly chop lettuce throw in a bowl, add a bunch of crushed chips (we like Doritos nacho cheese), top with the ground beef and beans. Mix in French dressing.

Thursday:

Chicken Parmesan
I butterfly chicken breasts until they are fairly thin. I bread them first in seasoned flour, then eggs that are beat thoroughly, then in seasoned bread crumbs. I pan fry those in hot oil with two cloves chopped garlic until golden brown, I put those in a baking dish with prego pasta sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese and bake at 350 until cheese is melted. Serve over pasta.
