7-Day Menu Plan Week of 11/10

I hope you enjoy this week's menu!  Please let me know if there is something specific you are looking for.


MONDAY
Mississippi Pot Roast - Instant Pot - I love using the Instant Pot!  If you like, you can make your own Ranch seasoning.  I did it today and it was super easy...  a good way to use up some of the seasonings you bought but only needed a tiny bit of!

Ranch Seasoning Mix
2 TBSP dried parsley
1-1/2 tsp dried dill
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp dried onion flakes
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp chives
1 tsp salt

Mix together and store in an airtight container until ready to use.

TUESDAY
Chicken and sun-dried tomato cream sauce
3 chicken breasts (cut lengthwise to make 6 filets)*
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/3 cup julienned sun-dried tomatoes in oil, plus 1 TBSP oil from jar
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2/3 cup dry white wine
2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped

Season chicken with salt and pepper.  Heat 1 TSBP oil from the sun-dried tomatoes jar in a large skillet on medium high heat.  Sear chicken about one minute on each side.  Remove chicken to a plate.  Add garlic to skillet and sauté about 30-45 seconds.  Add wine, cream, and tomatoes to skillet; stir, scraping up any drippings.  Cook on medium high until just boiling.  Return chicken to skillet and reduce heat to medium low. Cover and cook about 5 minutes, or until chicken is done.  Transfer chicken and sauce to serving dish and garnish with basil.

*Updated ingredients to clarify.  These should be 6 thin cutlets.

WEDNESDAY
Pulled beef and cheese sandwiches; sweet potato fries.  Use leftover beef from Monday.  Pair it with your favorite sliced cheese.

THURSDAY
Instant Pot Chicken Enchiladas - I am all about the Instant Pot again lately.  It saves so much time but let's us have really good meals.  This one also requires a little oven time, but totally worth it!

FRIDAY
Beef vegetable soup.  Another repurpose from Monday's beef roast.   Just chop up some leftover beef, add 1 cup beef broth, frozen mixed veg,  a can of diced tomatoes, maybe a little seasoning, and pressure cook for 5 minutes... it's soup!

SATURDAY
Bacon-wrapped Chicken Breasts with Cream Cheese - I mean, really!  Bacon and cream cheese, what more can I say?!

SUNDAY
Buffalo Omelette - The first time I ate this was during an egg fast, but it quickly became a big favorite!  It's quick to make but loaded with flavor!


Let's throw a little treat in here too!  How about some cheesecake?!  Make this early in the week so you can have it all week long.  It also freezes well!
