Quickie.

Dropping by for a quick run down of our menu for this BUSY week that we're home. We have family coming to stay with us starting tonight, 2 graduations on Friday, a race on Saturday and driving out West on Monday. Here's what will tide us over:

*Wednesday: Spinach/Sweet Potato Risotto with corn on the cob and some Pumpkin Chocolate Chip bread to welcome our guests

*Thursday: Lasagna Rolls, salad and baguette

*Friday: Out to eat to celebrate with the Graduates

*Saturday: Smoque BBQ for lunch and wraps for dinner (our lunch will be early-just after our 10 mile race downtown). For wraps I'll have tortillas, sliced turkey/ham, sliced cucumbers, lettuce, tomatoes, sprouts, diced avocados, cheese, peppers, bacon, mustards/dressings and anything else that sounds yummy. I'm also making a cucumber/tomato/fresh mozzarella salad, like THIS one.

*Sunday: Thanks to my aunt for the idea, we'll have an easy crock pot meal tonight. Throw chicken breasts, a can of black beans, can of corn, 1 c. salsa and 1 package taco seasoning in the crock pot for 4-5 hours until the chicken is cooked through. Then, remove the chicken, shred it with a fork and place back with bean/corn mixture. Serve over chips with cheese and sour cream. You could also put it over lettuce to make a chicken taco salad.
