Menu Plan Monday – April 20
Wow. I can’t remember how long it has been that we actually stayed on-plan for the menu! I’m pretty psyched about this. Plus after a trip to Costco we’re stocked at least until next month! I’d love to get to Mother’s Day without having to run to the store except for milk and fresh veggies.
Monday: Chicken stir-fry with couscous (instead of rice)
Tuesday: Sausage and rice (for the boys; I’m meeting a friend for dinner)
Wednesday: Veggie pasta
Thursday: Baseball game! We got free tickets so we’ll be eating at the game.
Friday: Pizza
Saturday: Thai Chicken Curry
Sunday: King Ranch Chicken














It is baseball season isn’t it? I need to find out the schedule for the local team here and see about getting tickets for my family. We’ve enjoyed the times that we have been able to go and it would be a fun outing this summer.
I’ve had Indian chicken curry but not Thai, could you explain the difference?

Sure! They are pretty similar but there are differences in spices. Thai curry starts with a spice paste that you cook with coconut milk to create a sauce, then add in the meat and vegetables. Indian curry starts with sauteed meat/vegetables seasoned with spices and the sauce is often yogurt-based. That is how I understand it at least; I hope I’m not incredibly far off!
