I tried to plan a simple menu for this week since I am focusing my energies on a baby shower we will be having this weekend. Instead of a regular cake, we will be having cupcakes. Not any old cupcakes, but fancy, gourmet cupcakes. I'm planning to make three different kinds: Lemon poppyseed, chocolate, and vanilla. I'm not a master cake decorator, so I hope they turn out OK. I plan to take pictures and post them next week, so stay tuned.
Since thinking about cupcakes and looking for ideas, I have discovered a bunch of fun cupcake websites. If you are interested in this sort of thing, you should visit:
Cupcakes Take the Cake
Or check out the book,
Hello, Cupcake!: Irresistibly Playful Creations Anyone Can Make
It is really cute and
very creative!
So, on to the menu:
Monday
Baked Potatoes
Tuesday
Turkey Stromboli
Wednesday
Veggie Stew
Thursday
Chicken Burritos made with this
easy taco filling (super simple - although I do prefer to use homemade taco seasoning rather than store bought)
Friday
BBQ Beef (crock pot)
Saturday
Chef's Salad
