I’ve come to the conclusion that I like the way The Happy Housewife plans her menus. She plans them in a flexible way, not assigning specific meals to specific days. So here is what I am going to be making this week.
Breakfasts
Waffles with fruit sauce
Biscuits and gravy
Romanian Mamaliga (like this recipe, only I’m not going to use the cheese part of it)
And on Saturday, we will have cereal.
Lunches:
Spaghetti
Vegetable pot pie
Rice and curry
Salisbury Veggie-Steaks
Cowboy Tamale Pie (vegetarian)
Suppers:
Smoothies, pizza and/or calzones, vegeburgers, sandwiches or wraps with spread, and fruit.
So that’s the plan for this week! I’ll have to post some of these recipes soon. This post is linked to Menu Plan Monday at OrgJunkie.


Your menu sounds delicious! I love mamaliga – I should add it to my feature on vegan, gluten-free breakfast ideas this week. I remember how amused my grandfather was when we introduced him in the 80s to this fancy yuppie food, “polenta” and he said, “This is mamaliga, what my mother made for breakfast for me every morning of my life!”
I love veggie tamale pie, too. I must be craving corn, since all the corn dishes are standing out for me!
