Baked chicken over salad greens (sliced carrots, tomatoes, green onion)
Oven-toasted wheat buns

Wednesday:
Cheese ravioli with meat sauce
Steamed bag of spinach
Wheat garlic bread


Thursday:
Pancakes or French Toast
Scrambled eggs w/ bacon bits
Fruit plate

Friday:
Roasted turkey breast
Mashed potatoes
Corn
Sweet potatoes/baked with butter and cinnamon
Green beans
(bake an apple crisp for the weekend-using 1/2 bag of leftover apples)

Saturday:
Warmed apple crisp
Milk/hot tea

Turkey sandwiches
Macaroni salad
Baby carrots

Sunday:
Wedge salad
Tuna Casserole
Parkerhouse rolls


Swaps:

Adventures in Texas: Went to a great birthday party at the neighbors' yesterday to celebrate their 2-year-old's birthday and the church dedication of their baby. The party included pony rides for the little ones, as well as, rides on a little train pulled by........a John Deere tractor!! Love it!
